The "Just One" video in 2004 was a real work of art. The music, lyrics, and basketball action are all coordinated, second by second.

I second that. Still gives me chills. Amazingly enough, Marat hasn't put it on his Youtube channel.

First one.

This is a masterpiece. With or without audio.

I could be wrong, but I think that Marat did not do the "Just One" video.....Matt Macri was the author with Marat getting credits with The Boneyard at the end.

Okwandu worked his ass off and did the dirty work down low for us last season. Without him, we wouldn't have made the championship.

Check out the move Kemba makes at 2:41 in the second video. I think that may have been his most impressive move of the whole BET. It beat the shot clock too; one of those "I'm not letting this team lose" type moments.

I'm happy CO and JB have national championship rings. They earned them. And I wish RA and CB got them as well.

Great videos. Not many schools can come up with a collection of videos like this.:)
Here's hoping that many more are in the future.

Chuck was one of the worst players to ever put on a uconn jersey. Painful to watch. Did he do some things bc he is 7'1? Yes. But dont tell me they wouldn't have made the championship without him.

This post got me looking back at old videos and wishing I could see Ray cut down the nets like kemba, Ricky Moore, rip, emeka and Benny etc. And then I have to watch Justin brown and chuck celebrating. Just makes me sad man.

Every school that's won a title has great players that haven't won one. There's nothing to be sad about having 3 national titles for your school, especially seeing that each had an entirely different group.

Yep. Additionally every past UConn player symbolically shares the rings because each player helped build up the program. Besides, Caron and Ray are doing well in the NBA and Ray has a ring.

no it doesnt and chuck deserved it just as much as kemba did. the kid worked hard and without his contribution we dont win. it doesnt bother me that Ray and Caron didnt win because theyve got championship rings in the nba and they were every bit a part of our 3 national titles like all former players.

man, i still say that 04 team once mek got healthy and rashad became a starter is one of the best teams of the last 25 years. id put that team on the floor and have a good chance of beating anyone. the 90` unlv squad ,the 96 kentucky squad and 04 uconn were problably the best 3 teams ive ever seen.

Exactly. Matt Macri did "Just One." Marat and I both gave him footage for it.

They're both uconn guys, so what's with the criticism?

The reason Ray and Caron don't have NCs is because they didn't have a guy like Chuck on their team . . . .

ray to this day always says we did it or us when referring to the uconn teams, so i don't think he's too bitter about not getting a ring
