That was ridiculous!

Rodney Williams would have even got out of this chair. Such an awesome dunk at the perfect time.

 

[C'Mon Man]

Took the wind out of their sails with that one... Felt like we rode the high from that dunk for the rest of the game and never let them back in despite some tough play from Dekker.

 

[XMan]

Yes great dunk at the perfect time

And here's the Gopher's Athletics video with Grimm's radio call:

#7 on 10:00 Sportcenter top 10! Had some tough competition.

That's what Nigel Hayes deserves for choosing Wisconsin over Minnesota. "Don't want to be my teammate? Well how about I posterize you in front of a sold out venue!" -Austin Hollins

Were those the recruits that were right behind the bench last night? And does anyone know who that was next to Blake Hoffarber?

Jarvis Johnson was there behind the bench. Dunno about anyone else.

 

[Curseislifted33]

does anyone have a picture of this posterization? Need to send it to some coworkers and make it my background....

THANKS

You could hardly hear Mike Grimm make the call on ESPN 1500 after that ferocious dunk! The crowd was so loud!

Abu Shamala maybe...?

 

[jaymil]

Abu Shamala maybe...?

Yep. Jamal was next to Hoffarber.

 

[SelectionSunday]

Amazingly it was only the 2nd best dunk in college hoops last night

Look how high the Wichita State guy gets his arm above the rim.

Let's call the dunks 1 and 1A.

I watched the game last night at the sportsbook at Harrahs in Las Vegas....the entire sportsbook, even those with no interest & watching other games responded with a collective "WHOA." That play turned heads of casual people, which is always a good thing!

If you watch a replay or have it DVR'd....watch the bottom of the screen and Gasser's reaction... he immediately turns to the ref and starts whining about a carrying call. Classic Badger move.

In town on business. 530am flight out back home this morning but I am still pumped. My first Barn game in 15 years. I have no voice today. That was an awesome moment among several such moments yesterday. It brought back memories of Muscleman days.

When Andre went down I turned to the guy next to me and it felt like Trevor's injury a couple of years ago. The air went out of everything. I loved Tubby but no one stepped up that day and we lost and that injury probably cost Tubby his job. But, last night Austin, Mo, Otto, Malik and Joey all stepped up their games. Little Dre is the most exciting player in the Big Ten I believe. Mav stepped up too with 3 slick assists I think all to Big Mo.

Man that was fun!

I just got this email with Pitino thanking the crowd. http://www.gophersports.com/sports/...m_medium=email&utm_campaign=MBBPitinoThankYou

I also noticed that the ref standing right there didn't make the obvious foul call. It was the ref standing furthest away. I know the angle wasn't great, but seriously that was as easy of a call as it gets.
