A few take always for me:

I felt that twinge of exuberance that I use to feel while watching UConn with this video. It was smack dab in the middle of my chest.

I forgot that the century mark in points use too come way more often.

The WB channel 9 on my cable carrier. I knew it by heart when setting up the video tape.

How absolutely deadly Rashard was and makes me miss having such a potent weapon. Bazz wasn't too bad either, lol.

Thank you for this, tcf15!
 
Thanks tcf ! These clips have me hoping that Gibbs can do what Rash did for us.

I think we forget how deadly Niels Giffey was his senior year. He shot over 48% from 3 after shooting 29% his junior year. Rashad shot more, and made more 3's overall, but Niels was as potent a weapon as UConn ever had. People we're so worried about Bazz, Boat, and DeAndre that they forgot about Niels and he made people pay. His two clutch 3's down the stretch against Kentucky are shots that I'll remember forever. Rashad and Niels are rare breeds.

Niels could also take the ball to the rack a little as well..

I think Giffey's % was higher because he took less overall and he took far less contested 3s. Sometimes it seemed like it didn't even matter if you contested Rashad's shot.

Having said that, Giffey was certainly deadly from 3. I'd say they were similar in ability but Rashad was able to get his shot off basically whenever he wanted it. Giffey had the edge in every other area of the game though.

Any eligibility left?

What I would give for another Rashad Anderson 4 yrs.
 
Thanks for creating and posting this video! It was the perfect tonic after I made the mistake of checking out the Conference Realignment board.
 
I remember following his recruitment on the boneyard way back when....heavily followed and a huge get. Ultimately somewhat limited but so,so nasty from deep that it the end it really was completlety in every aspect of the word warranted. Love me some Shad.

Also, I remember getting reamed on the boneyard once for referring to him as Rashard...
 
Rashad was a big-time player. He made some great defensive plays in crunch-time even though not a great man defender. I seem to remember one strip of the ball that loomed large. Just a great Husky player.
