@@Hunnidband_nazzzy And honestly, Kansas could realistically have about 3 or 4 more national championships under Self as well. Consider 2010 (overall No. 1), 2011, 2013, 2016 (Overall No. 1), and 2020….when Kansas was the Final AP Poll No. 1 and Final Coaches’ Poll No. 1 team….almost unanimously. 😱
@@MickeyMouse-lm6zjI have a theory. Right before Rose's two free throw attempts KU calls a timeout. From what I've heard, in that timeout coach Cal talked about what to do depending on what happened with those free throws. Rose who is probably focusing on the fact that he has to take free throws in a very high-pressure situation may not have paid too much attention. There are three potential scenarios and only one of those situations is one where you'd foul. 1) Rose makes both free throws. This would put Memphis up four. You don't want to foul in that situation because you stop the clock and give Kansas a chance to go to the line and score without the clock going forward. 2) Rose misses both free throws and Kansas gets the rebound. You for sure don't want to foul there, because you give them a chance to tie the game at the line because you're only up two. 3) Rose makes one and misses one. This is the only scenario where you foul. They don't get a three-point attempt to tie the game. It just so happened it was scenario three and Rose just forgot.
I remember this game very vividly. I was in third grade and my mom had given up hope that Kansas would win. I told her it wasn't over. When Mario hit the shot, my mom threw me up in the air so high I hit the ceiling. Good memories of a great KU team.
I watched this game from beginning to end. I was stationed on 32nd ST San Diego on the uss peleliu…I will never forget when Mario hit that shot. Never screamed like that in my life. I’d waited my whole life to do that!
"Which would rather be? Down 15 with a half to play or down 9 with only two minutes left?" -Bill Self at half of the 2022 National Championship. The team answered 15 with 20 minutes. Both are incredible comebacks. Rock Chalk!
It was, and CBS showed it this past weekend on TV in HD. Looked great. But still can't find an HD version on TH-cam. Not sure why NCAA wouldn't want to post it in HD. As a Tar Heel fan, I am frustrated that both the 2005 and 2009 title games cannot be found in HD, even though they were both originally broadcast that way.
I remember listening to this game on the radio as I rushed home through traffic from work. I was living in Hawaii at the time and so we were several hours behind and still at work when this game started. I got home just in time to see the last 5 minutes of regulation and overtime. Next day at work, really bitter Memphis fan was very salty...saying "Kansas doesn't deserve to be champs", so I asked him, "But a team Kansas beat does? "
Memphis missed some FTs, but most people don't realize that the bulk of KU's comeback occured while Memphis was making their FTs. KU cut the deficit from seven to two and had possession with about 30 seconds left. During that stretch, Memphis had hit 4 of 5 at the free throw line.
Why do they say only 3 national titles Kansas has 5.. 1922, 1923, 1952, 1988, 2008. I know 1922 and 1923 were pre tournament titles but they should still count I mean national titles were awarded differently back in the day..
I was living in Columbia, MO at the time because my ex wife was going to graduate school at MU... my neighbors absolutely hated me and I had the cops called on me for yelling so loud when Chalmers hit that 3
at 107:10 mark Collins makes a steal and an incredible save/pass and then a few seconds later makes a 3 pointer quite possibly the 7 seconds ever played in a championship game.
@@flipze2042 Just because games and titles get vacated, doesn't mean anything. . Schools still celebrate them, and even in the NCAA makes them take down the banner, they are allowed to hang them back up in the school somewhere, just not the arena.
If Derrick Rose wouldn’t of had a stomach ache for eating gummy bears that day they probably would of won it! He had to miss the media that day cause he wasn’t feeling well. His poison is sugar and he got a candy addiction but I don’t blame him cause I love that stuff
Could Billy Packer have willed Memphis to win this game anymore than he tried to. Billy was so sad when KU won this game. Glad he is done with broadcasting.

Anyone who beat calipari is okay by my book! Can't stand that oily snake of a coach! I've always had a lot of respect for Bill Self and he's no whiner either! The missed free throws is what cost them the championship for sure!
16 years later and I still question why Memphis didn’t foul up three. This game was over once Mario hit that shot. Every bit of momentum was on Kansas side.
CDR had just missed three straight free throws. It’s no way of knowing for sure why he bounced the ball as he did but I think the commentators were saying they don’t want to see a tech given for that in that situation
Back when life was good. The world was a much better place compared to now. 2008 was a fun year. One of the greatest ever. Wish I had a time machine so I can go back.
Great game between both teams but after Mario Chalmers hit the game tying three, I’m thinking Kansas is gonna turn it up in overtime….TBH, Memphis, you had the game and y’all played too relaxed…Randy Moss voice:Memphis, come on man…I wanted to laugh but couldn’t..smh…lol…

I was in high school this year, It was satisfying watching Rose choke. The recruiting of Calipari "the one and done" I'm not a big fan of. I watch more college than NBA and love the crowd,passion, and the rivalries dating back gives the atmosphere entertaining. You can feel it in these classic games
I see what you're saying, and as a UK fan I would honestly like to see some of Cal's teams have veterans, but I'm not against the one and done. The whole reason to go to college is to get a job. If you can do it after one year then go ahead and do it, you know?
Dear NCAA the history started with Allen Memphis back-up guard not making the trip... Rose needed the help Will Memphis ever get a legitimate shot like your Kansas & Duke Why not us ?
Like many here, I've been reviewing past Final Fours and National Championships as much as I could. Then it dawned on me. Should Memphis won this game, or Michigan Wolverines back in 1992 and 1993, would NCAA committee eventually vacate the title and give it to the losing team instead? It is not about winning, but more of winning "the right way" (per Larry Brown). Otherwise, falsified wins can be nullified and voided should exposed and proven.
The NCAA would vacate the title but would not award it to the runner up. There would just be a vacant title for 2008. Like what happened in 2013 with Louisville. As far as the NCAA is concerned, there was no champion in 2013.
Totally unsurprising the NCAA is monetizing this game on TH-cam after stripping Memphis of all their wins that year for using a player the NCAA had already cleared.
Memphis played in a weak Conf USA. Was use winning gms by +20pts. They never had to deal with "pressure offensive possessions," or more IMPORTANTLY pressure Free Throws ALL SEASON.. Kansas Jayhawks played in BigXII. They were tested bout every night fr Jan1st-Selection Sunday 2008. *Let me be ABSOLUTELY CLEAR though...... 2007-08 Memphis Tigers?

This Kansas team was totally stacked to the brim.

The NCAA didn't exist back then, so they don't recognize those titles. But they should count, and they should be recognized.
I would love to go to Lawrence Kansas to see my Jayhawks play
Note: John Calipari got his start as a volunteer assistant at Kansas under then coach, Ted Owens.
Note: Bill Self got his start as a grad assistant at Kansas under then coach, Larry Brown.
