Zip Watcher Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 I'd be happy to do it if I can get a copy of the original video from northside rowdy .. I think I need a little more lead in video to the lob pass to get all of Frenchy synced up. I'll send a PM to northside to see if we can get it.Off topic / but related: I was an undegrad student at UConn in the early nineties .. right when the Huskies made their rise to the top of the Big East, but before Calhoun figured out how to coach in the Big Dance. A year before I arrived was 89-90 and at the time it was known as the "Dream Season" when UConn broke through and finally competed at the top of the league, and I think won the Big East Tournament. In that NCAA tournament .. I think in the 2nd round .. Clemson came back from 19 down to take the lead over UConn w/ 1.0 seconds left at the Meadowlands. UConn had Scott Burrell throw an 80 foot pass to Tate George who caught it, gathered, turned and dropped in a 15 footer along the baseline to win.Well the whole time I was a student there .. there was this kiosk in the lobby of the library .. right when you walked in. It had all sorts of stuff on it .. parking maps, visitor info, exam schedules, the course catalog .. miscellaneous stuff. But one of the buttons on the front was a link to a video of "The Shot" .. it had the CBS feed synced up with the voice of the Huskies, Joe D'Ambrosio .. it was a tradition of sorts to watch that clip everytime you went to the library. I must have seen it at least 3 times in 4 years there (actually a lot more). I can still remember the call ... "The Huskies will have exactly 1 second remaining ...{something} .. Burrell, takes the ball, throws it down the court .. George takes it, turns .. and .. HE HIT IT! HE HIT IT! .. GEORGE HIT THE SHOT FROM THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE LANE .. HUSKIES WIN HUSKIES WIN.I actually went looking for this on the web this morning after thinking about that driving home from the Q last night.I've watched the Rowdy YouTube video a dozen times .. and w/ Frenchy on top of it .. I think it would need to be a quick link somewhere here on the nation so that we can pull it up whenever we want. Ditto the Getsy to Hixon, though I don't know where we'd come up with French's audio call at this point.Awesome stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RootforRoo44 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 i'm bias, but French is just fantastic. He truly is an awesome announcer, on par with the likes of Tom Hamilton and Joe Tait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herb is (and always will be) the measuring stick by which all others are compared.Can't wait to listen to the game tonight.
