Lot of good stories with that team.

Mohammed went from 300+lb project to high contributor. Too bad he didnt learn to hit FTs until 98. Long time NBA career too.

At one point we had 2 walk-on guards IIRC. (Epps and Mills)

One free throw from 3 in a row.

Almost an entirely different team than 1996 -- Epps, Edwards and Mercer being the exceptions. And, with a one-man freshman class of Jamal Magloire.

Mills was a walk-on. Padgett a redshirt back from suspension. Nazr off the JV team, Prickett back off redshirt, and Magloire a freshman. Winning it all after Anderson went down would have been a huge achievement.

Anthony was never a walk-on. You're probably misremembering because Pitino tried to sale him on walking on, but Epps had a commitable offer from UL as leverage and RP finally gave in and offered.

Where was Jeff Sheppard during this game? You would’ve thought he’d be playing over Mills.

Anderson ACL; Edwards stress fracture but played; Shep redshirted . Change anyone of these items and we win 3 in a row

Not only did Mohammed miss all those free throws, he also missed like 3 easy putbacks right at the rim. Mills and Padgett combined missed 3 or 4 open 3's in the 2nd half. So many what if's that game. So frustrating
