Hey VTHOKIE4EVER this is Les Henson...I posted something on Alang's comment board. Thanks for posting this. I'm trying to find the whole gome. Anybody know where I could find it?
Pause the video at :43 and you can clearly see his foot wasn't out of bounds.... very close, but he definitely took the ball and made an amazing shot.
#2. That was not me rolling around on the ground, it was my roommate Wayne Robinson #40, and #3 This shot was made at Tully Gym at Fla State, not at Cassell. I find it so funny that people want to be associated with something they had nothing to do with. When people tell me they were there at Cassell. I simply tell them," That's funny, I thought that shot was made in Fla not Va.
Hello everyone this is Les Henson. Thanks to Alang and VTHOKIE$EVER for posting this video. It's funny but I get 3 comments all the time about this shot. ! I was out Of bound. 2 I love it when you were rolling around on the ground, and 3. I was there in Cassell whenyou made that shot. My argument on me being out of bounds is;If you look at the camera angle they were shooting from mindcourt if you shot anything at an angle it's goint to look like it's out of bounds, even in tennis.
not really... last year we beat UNC twice and Duke we beat once but we only played them once we also were down by 10 in the first round of the ncaa tourney with 1 min left and scored the last 12 points to win the game... this year 4 of our freshman were espn top 150 recruits
It was real, it used to be the longest shot made ever, also remember there were no 3 point shots back then so this game would have went into overtime if he missed.
Go to time mark :41 and watch his right foot. Looks like he went out of bounds.
Great shot, but no ref was really there to see his foot. I think he goes out of bounds.
