@@brentjames2425 Brent, Carolina Georgetown was the first championship game I watched from begining to end during my childhood! I was in fourth grade at the time! Remember it well! It was literally the best back and forth championship game to this day! Neither team had more than a six point lead
Hopefully we can do it tomorrow as well. As an Arkansas fan normally I am selfish and only care about my team. Tomorrow is different. We have been charged with doing the world a favor. A lot of pressure to be sure, but it must be done.
I was only 4 years old at the time, but I remember growing up hearing my dad talk about this game. I still have some Arkansas memorabilia like glass Coke bottles and hats that say “ ‘94 National Champs” with the hog logo on them. Now I’m 32 and Arkansas has another dang good team under Eric Musselman. Man, it would be awesome if they won it all again in the near future.
I saw your comments, but I don't like to say this ,Arkansas is one program I don't see will win a championship in basketball atleast for another 10-20 years, John calapery is a recruiter not a coach, they should have kept Richardson but to many racist people in control interfere in things they don't understand, I am sorry
This marked the end of an era. Between 1986 and 1994, Duke under Coach K made 6 Final Fours in 8 years. That type of success will never be duplicated again in the Men's game with the extreme parity in today's D-I.
This 1993-94 Duke team ended an impressive run of Final Fours between 1986-1994 Duke made 7 Final Fours (Five in a row) 5 Championship Games 2 National Championships it would 5 years before they reached another Final Four and 7 years before they win another Championship (2001)
I’m in my mid 20’s, hearing my gramps talk about this game is almost like Arkansas sports mythology lol. Hopefully this elite 8 matchup can hold a candle to this game
It’s weird what you remember from the past. I remember feeling true despair and seeing that drummer at @37:29 being totally amped up. I thought it was on the verge of getting away from the Razorbacks. But they turned it around.
If your a Tar Hole fan, that outcome was the reason you're an Arkansas fan along with it! Seriously, u don't hafta try being so obvious - your comment gives it away!
This is my all time team at Arkansas. Their game was unbelievable. Every player was so talented. Big Nasty I COULD WATCH him because he was so aggressive and tough inside. I loved Corey Beck and Scotty Thurman. Scotty is a hero hitting that big time shot. ❤❤❤
@@yungmick3 You are taking about the one great season that the did win the championship but as far as a chance for all time greatness losing to UCLA in the Championship game hurt their chances for that.
When Arkansas basketball was good as any and this is coming from a Kentucky fan. I never understood why Coach Richardson couldn’t keep Arkansas as title contenders after 1996/1997 somewhere around that time.
What always baffled me was how the level of his recruiting slowed! Guys that played at Arkansas constantly talked him up as a players' coach, which is the ultimate of compliments for a head man in college hoops
The ncaa began a bunch of investigations that hampered Nolan's recruiting efforts after 1996. They were never the same, and then it all fell apart with the university in early 2000s.
@@jackbauer4186 Jak's assessment is 1 Factor but I would have preferred if he had mentioned almost all of the allegations involving the basketball team turned out to be unfounded. Seriously, how often does that happen today?
Duke should've won the National Championship Final in 1994. And the Blue Devils should've won the 1999 National Championship Final as well. Coach K had a crazy run during the 1990s, 2000s and 2015!
Huge Hog fan was a freshman at U of Arkansas that year. Unfortunately, we now know all sports to be "rigged and fake" and Thurman's winning shot is 100% magnets...
I was upset about losing to Arkansas but they were a tough team. But we only lost by 4. I remember watching this game and I was wondering why was Grant Hill taking so long to get aggressive and draw some fouls. And was not himself. He did hit a big 3 pointer. But it wasn't enough
That '94 run by Duke is still one of Mike Krzyzewski's single most elite coaching jobs! When u talk about getting the max out of a team, he got it from that team in spades! I'm a die-hard Duke fan (have been since '81-'82) and I'll say this - I'm probably as proud of that squad as I am of their five national champions! Truly, we had no business advancing as far as we did and I don't say that often! '94 Duke was an overachievement! One super world class college player plus a collection! Hill was the best all-around player in the country but Duke's lack of depth ended up showing down the stretch of that final; they we're gassed! But I'll never forget what they gave of themselves and gave a superb Arkansas team a run for it's money
No way I could have been disappointed as far as that team went! The oddest and best outcome was the fact that the Tar Holes beat us by double digits both times that season and yet they couldn't even get out of the second round against a much compared inferior opponent whom they took way too lightly in BC! We were a better TEAM than the Tar Holes were in '94 when it mattered though! That's always the sweetest
@@bradlewis6514 There was a lot of dissension on that UNC team between the freshman who felt they should be playing more and the upperclassmen who had led UNC to the national title the year before and when that happens bad things can happen to a team
@@paulsonj72 true John, but they still had a favorable bracket and couldn't navigate it! Stackhouse and Wallace were superb, but Dean was the coach and with him, experience trumped promise! So u can't tell me they didn't know that or know their place and status on the team! If so the blame goes on Wallace and Stackhouse for not understanding Dean's philosophy
Brad Lewis I wouldn’t know who took the final shot. I was a college student at the time and was traveling back fro Milwaukee that weekend where I had been with our school’s hockey team at the WCHA Final 5 doing the radio broadcast
It was called a lack of leadership without Coach K the majority of that season! Before his back surgery, Duke was ranked and 9-3 overall! After he took his leave of absence we went 4-16! Need I say more! And Ricky Price never turned into a consistent threat! His lack of improvement set us back too! Even as a senior in '96-'97, he was still like a light switch (off and on)!
Played pro basketball overseas for a bit, became an assistant coach with Arkansas under Mike Anderson. He wasn't kept on when Eric Musselman was hired and is now in real estate.
It's funny looking back how Collins just decided he'd personally try and take the game over for Duke at the end... hahahahaha. All the while they have the best player in college basketball on their team in Grant Hill who just hit a massive 3 to tie it. I hate Duke so I enjoyed seeing that bc I didn't remember him blowing it like that. Hahahaha
I loved that game! Hoosiers may have played their most complete game that season! Even with winning the Big Ten, they went moreso all out against CalPal and the 'Cats! R u a Hoosier man?
Coach K did not allow Grant to be Grant Hill. Hill was to unselfish and Coach K handcuffed Hill at times. Duke should have won this game going away by 10+. This Arkansas team was really not that good.
Lol you trolling? This Arkansas team was amazing. Look at their schedule and who all they beat and how badly they beat them. Virtually the same team went back to the championship the following year.
Jeff Capel, Antonio Lang and Cherokee Parks all had the tournament of their lives and without Grant that wouldn't have been possible! It was by far the best basketball those three played while at Duke
Are you kidding? We were one of the best college teams ever that year. We were unbelievably amazing. I'd say that if I wasn't a big fan but we were. Duke was very good but we earned it. We were better.
Duke was favored in this game by the way the great coach k . Against Nolan Richardson and his what they called n ball at the time. Even though Kentucky was running the same press the exact same press as Arkansas was running. Kentucky is a called pressure defense. Nolan Richardson never gets the credit he deserves because of how his career ended up but trust me into the final four Arkansas was considered the underdog because they didn't believe that coach Richardson was on the same level as the other coaches that were in the final four.

Fyi one of the legends in college history who is approachable. He don't like it but he will smile n sign an autograph
Everyone took them seriously. What are you talking about 😂?
