Message: [QUOTE="LStudfellow, post: 3480951, member: 5436"] Although there are many worthy moments posted here (which is why I gave multiple likes), and I can understand why many of you like to point to moments involving Bouk and CV (and for good reason) there really is one "moment" that rises above all others in my estimation as a Husky fan - the arrival of Isaiah Whaley as a force to be reckoned with. Isaiah and his underdog story of overcoming long odds through hard work and commitment that really showed brightest in his standing toe-to-toe with the mighty Precious Achiuwa in the home win over Memphis is, in so many ways, what makes being a UConn Huskies men's basketball fan special. Yes, that play by CV that ended with Bouk's dunk-and-1 was a highlight play for the ages... but without Isaiah we lose that game, and this end-of-season renaissance that has so many of us excited for next year does not happen. He has gone from an after-thought who more than a few wanted to run out of town to open up a scholarship during last off-season to receiving his own thread after practically every game. Truly amazing! There is nothing from this year that comes close to that. Isaiah Whaley seizing the opportunity when it presented itself to him is my favorite moment of this season... and I love the fact he did that as a Husky. [/QUOTE]
