Will always be the Harrison game to me... throwing the ball off Sullinger classic!
He did, but he did do some descent coaching that season, particularly in the tourney.
What sticks in my head is my then ten year old son and I going nuts when Knight hit his shot but then Ohio State swiftly got up court and got a decent, if rushed look…
My heart stopped. That shot by Ohio State’s Buford seemed to hang in the air about five minutes before clanging off harmlessly.

UConn was very good that year. They were ranked 9th going into the tournament and were a 3 seed. Let's not revise history to make those losses something they weren't.
To me, if you want to blame anyone for that loss blame the NCAA for giving the Final Four to a venue that was like a man-made Grand Canyon in Houston. There was no depth perception for shooters —and Kentucky relied on Knight, Lamb, Miller and Liggins making some shots. It was a terribly played Final Four really by all teams. Kentucky just came up one shot short. Knight especially couldn’t get the range.
I remember it as the season the NCAA cheated UK and Cal with Kanter not playing. He plays, UK wins it all.
one of the worst venues i’ve ever seen for a basketball game
2 things:
#1 Loved Liggins taking Deibler off the dribble and then jawing at him.
#2 We need to get JORTS back to Rupp ASAP. Him, Knight, Jones and Liggins. Miller and Lamb have been back a lot recently but the other four have not and they need to know how much BBN appreciates them.
