I know it won’t happen but it’d be amazing if a ton of UConn fans showed up for this tournament just to show everyone what’s coming

watching the highlight on Twitter this morning, it was hilarious watching iverson complain about two obvious fouls where he absolutely decked jump shooters.

Learn something new every day. 1996. UConn's first Big East championship. I had always had the impression they won the BE during dream season.

It’s because Dick Vitale said “with these group of people” and ESPN didn’t fact check. I give them credit for even posting it so I can’t complain.

YEah, tweet was wrong. UConn won the BET and regular season for the first time in 1990.

I always thought that was an awkward commentary as they won the title...
."first big east title with this group of people". You'd think he would have been better prepared with something....anything...

They did win the Big East tourney in '90 during the Dream Season. Beat Top Ten Georgetown and Syracuse teams on consecutive days.
Ricky Moore put him on lock. All my gtown boys were salty after that game. I’ll never forget that game. Sat. Night - the garden- I think UConn was number 6 in country , gtown was like #3. Ray ray vs iverson- Dickie V was doing the game (before he got annoying) lol. Electric atmosphere

Technically isn't every championship in college almost always a first "with this group of people"?

[/QUOTE]
In 1990
We were actually tied for first with Cuse
as 12-4 Georgetown was 11-5
Cuse somehow got the 1 seed in the Tourney
we had to beat Georgetown and Cuse on consecutive days to win it.
JC won COY

It was not UConn's first title. ESPN employs morons.

It’s always hilarious to me how often they show that clip with Dicky V’s comment
