who were the two now famous freshmen that played with Caron?

Was Emeka Okafor one of them?

I loved Caron for carrying a bunch of freshmen (he was just a sophomore) from unranked to BE Champions to a 2 seed to the Elite 8, being the only team to even compete with the Twerps that year.

Kemba is carrying a bunch of kids too

That was quite the year for the Terps

yes

did you know he came to UConn a 100+ recruit? I think 105 was his number

I had a great time with Twerps fans in Cuse, although they were just a little too cocky at times

No, didn't know that because I didn't really follow college sports much back then. But he was one of the players I enjoyed watching in his early years in the NBA, when he played for the Bobcats. Always liked that type of player, that worked hard in the lowpost, guys like the Oaktree @NYK and many others.

Happy 23rd birthday Kemba walker. I remember when he went off in the big east tourney, classic.
