Final 4 post

Root for Houston. In 1999, Kelvin Sampson was the only coach or national media person who said UConn would beat Duke in the NC.

Digger Phelps picked UConn as well. Out of a panel of 20 people, there were 3 that picked UConn to win from what I recall.

I remember Brian Ellerbe the Michigan head coach at the time being one of the few

Was he really, I remember the pre game and remember quite a bit of coaches picked UConn. I remember Digger Phelps did and Rick Majerus.

I remember watching the pre-game and waiting for somebody (anybody) to pick UConn and Sampson did. I didn’t remember anyone else doing that. But now as I think about, Digger Phelps picking us sounds right. It’s been 26 years and I’m old. I stand corrected.

Would love to hear as to the context they were used.
That was a BLEEP call or You are a BLEEP'N BLEEP

Does it matter? If it were Hurley either one would have been news for a day.

It was definetly an epic choke job.

I had too much to drink. It was one of the worst chokes ever, Duke scored 1 field goal in the final 11 minutes of the game. Supposedly generational player and a bunch of other NBA players, highest rated offense ever on Kenpom and barfed all over their shoes when it mattered.
