So instead of associating it with Ben Gordon and the 2004 championship, you associate it with a loss two years later?

Your brain doesn't work.

Weren't the '04 and '06 uniforms different?

The Gordon jersey isn't a 2006 throwback jersey. It's a late 60's throwback jersey. The 2006 jerseys the team wore were late 60's model throwbacks.

Negative, they were throwbacks from 1991. I believe we only wore them for one season though.

The Burrel uniform is my all time favorite to this day.

Brand new… tags still on. Been looking for this throwback for years. So psyched. Best Uconn jersey design ever. Has anyone ever seen the throwback Caron one they made around the same time in 2006ish?? I haven't been able to find that one for years either.

I've got that Caron jersey. I love it. It's black so it throws people off. I wore it during the 2011 title game and Butler fans were high fiving me until they realized it said Connecticut on the front.

I had my eye on this since its one of the only authentic jerseys not in my collection. Alas I am not a size large. Glad another 'yarder picked it up.

Have never seen the Caron jersey sold anywhere ever. Have seen the rip throwback a few times but never the Caron one. Anyone here have that Caron throwback they want to offload (size large) let me know.

If anyone has this jersey in a medium and wants to sell it, let me know!

I would have guessed 4 in that style was worn by Boo Willingham in 1995. But it looks like we had a little bit of red outline in those jerseys around the lettering, as opposed to the all blue of 1991.

Been looking for the Ray Allen version of this jersey for years but have yet to come across one in my size (Large) that isn't ridiculously priced on eBay. I think there's a small on eBay now for like $200, but I'm a wee bit larger than that...

I do have this same Ben jersey in the blue version that I break out from time to time. I think the Ben one is the only one that somewhat available. Seems like the Ray and Rip ones are almost impossible to come by.

Where did you get the Caron throwback? I've literally been hawking ebay for like 5 years and I've only seen 1 ever and it wasn't in my size. Nike made 4 player throwbacks where their names on the back. Ray, Caron, Rip and Ben… around the same time. I wanna say 2006 ish. I have the blue and now white Ben and the blue rip, but not the Caron or Ray. Would do anything for either of those.

There was a UConn store in Buckland back in the day. Not sure if it still exists. I bought it around that time... 2006 sounds about right.
