2009 Big East Tournament Replay

[OrangeDW]

Nice that Kris Joseph didn’t bounce after not playing much as a freshman, and Wes Johnson ready to take over the starting SF spot the following year.

Between this game & Jim & Pam’s wedding, Niagara Falls had a big 2009

Man, Jonny Flynn was a super hero to 11 year old me.

The dunk at the RAC is one of my foundational basketball moments. That and the GMac floater against Cincy. I must have re-enacted that shot a thousand times before 4th grade basketball practice.

You’re 22? I hate you.

How many times has JB “never been prouder of a team”?

“Connecticut had their good players for a couple overtimes...” - Boeheim

“Boeheim said that our bench players suck” - crybabies on this board if he said that now.

I caught that Niagara Falls doc on one of the ESPN channels recently.

Found it interesting when Harris said something about how when he was at Syracuse he still had one foot in NF and it hurt him. Lines up with the reports here back then that Hopkins would sometimes have to drive out there and get him and bring him back to Cuse.

Yeah he had a kid too and his family all in the stands at every game. Too much. His problem was being really good as a freshmen and having nowhere to go but down given his height and playing style. The commentary on Paul on this board grinds my gears. He was a very good player for us.

Hairline doesn’t match the age and I’ve had more hangovers in the past month than in four years of college but other than that the low 20’s are great

Harris & Jeff Adrien both had potential pro futures as Tight Ends

That’s a good call. Adrien was a very good undersized PF. He was the star for my rival HS and good enough to elevate them over us when we had 2 d1 good players on the team and would win the state championship the year after. But he was my grade and I think emerged as a freshmen at uconn when I was a senior at SU.

14 and 9 as a soph. Very good player.

I fell asleep. Did we pull it out?

Looking at the box score. Andy didn’t start but played 50 minutes off the bench.

He, Devendorf and Flynn were 1st, 2nd, and 4th in minutes that year. Harris was third. We played an incredibly small lineup that year. JB rarely played the 2 bigs together. Averaged 80 a game. We were all about scoring.
