Us UCONN fans also loved you like your family. STILL TO THIS DAY. Once you play at UCONN you are family. LET'S GET NUMBER 6!
Calhoun won 3 NCAA championships and he had the best team in 06. What he did for UConn basketball is priceless.

Love my Huskies. The 1999 team is still my favorite team but that's just because it was the first one.
This team, sitting at 9-9 in Big East play, and squarely "on the NCAA bubble", essentially faced 11 straight elimination games (5 Big East conference games in 5 nights) and a 6 game run through in the NCAA tournament-- it was and still is THE most impressive accomplishment in NCAA men's basketball history.
the only way the team would've missed out on the tourney was if they lost to Depaul and even still I think they would've made it. They did play their way from an 8-10 seed up to a 3 seed though.
This is why I believe. Back in 99-00. I sent demos of rap integrating the squad. The micro in 99 with Hamilton was on point. A year later went to studio. I heard other teams were jealous
@@Ruminations1from2Connecticut I think you mean "invigorated" not "integrated"
The most impressive accomplishments in NCAA history belong to UCLA & Indiana. Going undefeated the whole season is the hardest thing to do by far.
@@joerussell838 damn right or UCLA 80+ wins in a row
Kemba E-Z pass Walker put that work in & put the Huskies on his back & led them to the chip. A season that will never be forgotten. #HuskyNationStandUp#
Cardiac Kemba. He was one hell of a player for Uconn and now for the Hornets.
it's kamba dumb ass
+Jhamari Seals Sure it is. lol
Jhamari Seals Extradited to Duke to polish toilets......
and now for the celts😎
Kalela Kembas playing starting in the big east tournament and continuing thru the NCAA’s was unconscious. He was on fire for a month
Still don't understand how Kemba didn't win player of the year. Jimmer Fredette had a good NCAA tournament. Kemba had a great year. A true MVP.
Jimmer averaged 29 ppg. I'd say that's a pretty good year
WORD THE BIG BIRD
Greg Przybylinski Jimmer was lights out in college but kemba was able to transition to the NBA extremely well
@@justinnardine8564Kemba was able to transition better because of his athleticism! U can't have a complete skill set without it! Especially with the fact the NBA is an offense-minded league of slashing and scoring and has been for quite some time! Kemba is superb in both those aspects! Couple those with the jump shot he'd already had at UConn and he was the perfect fit for the pro game
Brad Lewis yes I don’t want to compare him to AI or Thomas cause it’s not fair but an extremely explosive smaller player that makes a lot of big shots.
kemba got that super stepback
After watching them go through the Big East Tournament, I picked them in my bracket to win it all. I loved this team. The youngsters were so good. Kemba was incredible. Seeing Jim Calhoun smile more with this team than any other was a sign on how he felt that year. I saw them at Maui and got hooked. They had a tough period in the conference which was so competitive and they did slump.
We kicked ASS in that run.....just amazing.
I think its the greatest run of all time and I dont think it'll be surpassed. 5 games in 5 days against 4 top 20 teams then on to the tourney and we know how that turned out.
I return to this video every once in a while, legendary.
Pretty awesome tribute to an unexpected and surprising season. Thanks for taking the time to make this.
Now they should make one for 2014
There isn't a highlight video from last season?
richard speck there might be but i mean a documentary about the last season. Someone already wrote a book about it.
and one for 2023
One of my favorite teams to come through
Kemba 💪🏽
kemba is amazing
This should have atleast 1 mil views
Lol!
I see Kemba, lamb, and Allen in Bouknight. That's one nasty baller. Sick ass skills
Not quite lol
@@bobdole4432 Haha right. I wish Bouknight would come back for his junior year, but he is already an old Sophomore and a projected borderline lottery pick, so i definitely don't fault him for leaving, but think if he came back, he and RJ would make the best backcourt in the country and have Uconn poised for another title run.
Shabazz carried the team to a final four trophy.
This guy, behind this account, was there. I met Travis Knight in the bathroom, asked him for a photo and he said, "Yea. After we get out of the bathroom."
Are you saying this channel is Travis Knight's?
@@blyman7170 no. he’s saying the owner of the account commenting met Travis Knight
Thx for the vid
As a uconn fan I love it
That Cincinnati game was a rough house the start of the game but uconn said yea we about to win this shit 💪🏾
Great run by UConn.
I didn't believe it. When it was done I still couldn't believe it.
Great video until last 5 seconds
CARDIAC KEMBA
I really respect UConn them boys beat us when we Duhon reddick deng d Ewing and Sheldon Williams we had somebody else I can’t really remember
Miciah Galloway the 99 final was wild too. You guys had Brand, Langdon etc one of coach Ks best teams.
that 15-5 run to close the game and win by one (really a 15-2 run and win by four if you take away the meaningless Duhon 3 at the buzzer) was one of the most exciting things i have ever witnessed. To make things even better, i was in college at Elon U, in the heart of Duke country and a lot of my baseball teammates were big Duke fans, so i was going crazy and they were sinking further and further into depression. Good times
SOMETIMES IM BEST WITH MY BACK IN THE CORNER,YOU THINK YOU GOT ME BUT THATS WHEN I GOT YOU 😉 WOW WOW WOW COACH YOUR THE GREATEST NCAA COACH EVVVVVVVER SMH WOW......GO back to UCONN MAN,THE TOURNAMENTS DON’T FEEL THE SAME.....
A lot of similarities to this year's team. Even with the losses to St Johns.
Needs an update #5
And a 6th!
Why no mention of Calhoun’s suspension announcement in February 2011?
You 'member the 2011 UConn Huskies? I 'member.
I been looking for the Full game v Zona. Any help would be appreciated

I still could never understand how Mike sheshevsky for Duke Coach get such great Praises being one of the best coaches to me that's total BS because every year he had the top players in America coming to Duke I mean a top top it's ridiculous I could have been standing out there and went out for a national title out for a national championship however Jim Calhoun always had the secondary players still talented but no we're near as good as Duke and he out coached him and won three national titles
Does anyone know who posted this or directed or produced this show? Was it ESPN or UCONN or ? I am a family member of a team member and want to ask someone a question. It would be extremely helpful.
jackie Levin no one cares
Um, I do, ..I was asking for a reason- having to do w a person on that team whose parent has brain cancer- I was trying to get contact info to help make the kid's day a little happier. KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE.
sorry but you should be more careful on the internet. Try to ignore people because unfortunately being rude is normal and you are fighting a losing battle get mad at every mean person. Anyways, if you just read the credits, the documentary was made by IMG Media, and paid for by UCONN and UCONN IMG Sports Marketing/TV Video. Title: A Run for the Ages (2011). No director. Producers: Forstmann, Pyne, Sutton. It's hard to tell but it appears as though IMG Media is owned by UCONN.
ya I know they never did I have the 2 movie and this movie
Draymond green with the half court miss bahahahaha
wow
-doge
I never saw this video, thanks #UConn #bleedblue
Kamba was great till his legs failed him ! 👍
I honestly don't think this team was that good. I think if they didn't face a weak team like Butler who shot like crap in the final they would not be national champs.
The team that apparently only gave a damn in neutral site games.
Biggest fluke run ever.
11 wins in elimination games against some of the best teams in the nation to win a Big East and NCAA titles is the opposite of a fluke. Give respect where it's due.
You must be a Butler fan
He just mad his team dint make it to March madness lmao sucker
