Guess our friend Jim Nantz's Monday Night Line

nothing to add... just lol

 

this made me laugh

 

Anyone remember what he did for the other UConn wins?

 

I think for the last one it was "Yes, U-Conn!" I could be misremembering that, though.

 

UConn-Duke from 1999 was on Classic recently, and I think he used that line for that one. Don't remember 2004, but I want to say he went with something a little better.

 

A tradition like no other.

 

I didn't see much of this year's tournament, but this UConn team reminds me a little of the Butler (Walker), El-Amin (Lamb) & competent big men team. - Unless I'm misremembering who played with whom.

 

Rip Hamilton was on that team, not Butler. Hamilton would be a decent comparison with Lamb. That '99 team didn't have a player like Walker (and Butler's not really a good comparison as it is). The El-Amin/Lamb comparison makes no sense. They're two completely different types of players.

 

OK, withdrawn. Just meant the star at the 3, the precocious PG who is good for college, but not really a pro & other good spare parts.

 

Walker is the star and he's a hybrid 1/2 and Lamb is the 3 and definitely has the talent, if he harnesses it, to become a college star and a high NBA pick.

 

Whoops - told you, I didn't follow this season much.

 

You mean, "A tradition unlike any other?"
