When University of Louisville soccer goalie Andre Boudreaux isn’t deflecting balls away from the net, he is contributing to the Louisville Cardinal, the campus newspaper. In a recent article, Andre compiled a ranking of the top viewed UofL videos on YouTube.
The junior from New Orleans was credited with 63 saves during the team’s 20-1 season in which the Cardinals finished as the national runner-up in the College Cup.
As Boudreaux notes in his article, the number of views was not his only criteria in compiling the list. He also considered “the importance of a play, the game in which it occurred and the achievement of the team.” Here’s Andre’s list:
- Basketball: Kyle Kuric’s dunk against Notre Dame this season. 140,378 views.
- Basketball: Final game against No. 1 Syracuse at Freedom Hall, 2009-10 season. 6,387 views.
- Basketball: Edgar Sosa’s game winner against Kentucky, 2008-09 season. 72,639 views.
- Basketball: 1986 National Champions. 19,497 views.
- Basketball: Big East Tournament Champions, 2008-09, 13,628 views.
- Basketball: Darrell Griffith’s 360 dunk against LSU in NCAA, 1980. 81,444 views.
- Football: UofL’s overtime win over fourth-ranked Florida State, 2002. 56,497 views.
- Basketball: Compilation of all-time great UofL dunks. 14,721 views.
- Baseball: Trip to the College World Series, 2007, 7,776 views.
- Soccer: Aaron Horton’s last second goal against North Carolina in the College Cup, 2011. 1,232 views.
As Boudreaux concludes, “There could be a top 10 list of just basketball, but this is a school where athletics excel across the board.”
Doctor Dunkenstein’s greatest dunk was in the Garden against St. Johns. The alley oop was mistakenly thrown on the wrong side of the hoop. Griff was already on the way up on his side. He ducked his head under the rim, straightened up on the other side, caught the pass and throw it down backwards over his head without seeing the rim.
The TV announcer went nuts screaming “He can’t do that. It can’t be legal.”
Greatest dunk in UofL history. And done by a guy with small hands who couldn’t really palm the ball.
Nice dunk. Another great day for Kyle Kuric.
