If you want to watch the best UCONN team ever (in my opinion), watch some games from the '05-'06 season.  This team didn't even make the Final Four - they ran into a red hot George Mason team who was basically playing at home (game was in D.C.)  I was at this game, and the whole place was against us. Minus the defeat, it was the best trip ever - spur of the moment, leaving Hot Tomato's in Hartford, we drove through the night and bought tix on the street that morning.

30-4 overall, 14-2 in the Big East, and 16-0 at home.  4 of the starting 5 got drafted, as well as our 6th man: Gay 8th, Armstrong 12th, Marcus Williams 22nd, Boone 23rd, Denham 40th.  Read that again.  Also on the team was an absolute sniper, Rashad Anderson, and Jeff Adrien, a blue collar power forward who also spent time in the NBA.  The roster also had CT's own Craig Austrie (Stamford), in addition to the BY's favorite, Ed Nelson.  Surely one of my favorite teams ever, right up there with Ricky Moore's and the team that first won it all for us in '99.
