Wasn't this the game played on 3/17 when Tatum threw up an off-balance shot at the last second?

A long pass was thrown to Devereaux who tipped it to the left to Tatum for the jumper win.

I didn't even know video of this existed!

Video quality is pretty bad (worse than our online stream) but I am not complaining. Did STO ever show this game? Maybe Time Warner isn't so bad after all.....

I've seen crazier things happen.

Tell if you think Tatum got fouled on winning shot. Wasn't called but luckily didn't matter.

i still say that was the best frontline since I've followed ohio hoops. Devereaux, Alexander, and hicks with cole off the bench.

Wow.

Definitely could have been a foul. I cannot believe he made that falling over like he was.

Kudos to whoever found the footage of this.

I've seen crazier things happen.

They really need to get TWCS in the dorms. Oh well, I'll have it at my apartment when I move in this fall

Goes without debate and maybe the best guard tandem too.

Being at this game with my Dad ranks as the second greatest sports experience of my lifetime. I was already a huge Bobcat basketball fan but this just cemented OU hoops in my heart forever. Pops and Robert Tatum still keep in touch. Devereaux has always been one of my favorite Bobcats.

Eddie Hicks may have been the best defensive player ever to don the Green and White. Ron Harper probably still has bad dreams about him.

Bob Donawald's red check sports coat is a real classic from that game, too.

i agree. Devereaux' jump shot from a foot or two inside the foul line was beautiful. And we dvr'd it. Would need to figure out how to capture it on a disk or tape.

I live in Col''s and have seen Robert many times thru the years, I usually see him with Paul Baron, they roomed together and were perhaps one of the best guards tandem in recent ( note how I use the word "recent " )
Robert is in VERY poor health, He has lost all or most of his sight. All he wants to talk about are his BB days at Northland HS and at Bobcat U. He has gotten better as the years pass----- I think this is true for all of us.

Just remember THERE ARE NO FORMER BOBCATS---- JUST BOBCATS

I don't have TWC Sports, so I didn't record it, but this has been on YouTube for over 6 years
