Because why not?
I completely forgot Marcus Johnson was a Fr on that 2005-06 team until I watched that video. I just don’t have any memory of him that season. Honestly, I do not remember any of those highlights outside of the dunks vs Syracuse at Gampel in 2007.Not being a jerk....but he averaged 4 ppg over his two years in Storrs. That video must be most of his field goals.
Definitely on my list. Working backwards and going through 05-06 right now. Should get to Selvie soon.Thanks tcf15. I don’t know if it’s ever been done, but if it’s possible can you or someone else please do a Johnnie Selvie highlight video. There’s a small group of boneyarders that would actually shed a tear over that. Thanks
In general, 2006-2007 was an entirely forgettable season. Probably the most forgettable up until 2017-2018.I completely forgot Marcus Johnson was a Fr on that 2005-06 team until I watched that video.

Yes, it really was. I remember being so bummed when that season was over. When we started out 11-0, it was essentially fools gold since that was probably the weakest November/December schedule we ever played. At the time, that was the first season we missed out on any post season tournament since Jim Calhoun’s first year as head coach in 86-87. Unlike 2017-2018, the reason wasn’t for lack of talent. We just had too many Freshmen, but those guys went on to become the core of our 2009 Final Four team.In general, 2006-2007 was an entirely forgettable season.

I guess I'm suggesting that although these are highlights you can see he can play. I actually watched a Cuse game, perhaps 06-07, where he got quite a bit of time and was easily the most efficient offensive player in that game. He scores 16 w/ a couple of really big plays and we win at Storrs in an upset. If I'm not mistaken we ended up 17-14. You can see JC's hook, which suffered no fools, was exceptionally quick w/ Marcus Johnson. So my thought was what was the background story on why he doesn't play more, was it a dispute, poor practice player, etc?Not being a jerk....but he averaged 4 ppg over his two years in Storrs.

He along with Curtis kelly, Scott hazelton, Jamal Coombs McDaniel, and doug wrenn are my “that’s all we get?” Starting 5.Not being a jerk....but he averaged 4 ppg over his two years in Storrs. That video must be most of his field goals.
