A: Sue Bird’s senior year, [UConn, 2001-02].

There a lot of Doris haters here and frankly i don’t get it. She is great and i miss her terribly calling games. It’s so nice watching these archived games and hearing her voice. She has a very good basketball mind and one of the best basketball analysts.
