Best Iowa dunker of all time?

[PCHawk]

Comparing Marble to Jordan.
Seriously think about that for a minute or two.

They were compared while Marble was at Iowa. They are obviously not still compared.

I think it is Sir Jam a Lot. However, it might have been this guy if he would have ever played varsity at Iowa.

Some of those moves are simply amazing.

As already stated, Sir Jamalot.

Don't dismiss the Les Jepsen talk.

1. Gerry Wright -amazing hops, almost freakish ability. Who could forget the cartwheel dunk?

1A. Thomas isn't far behind. Also unreal hops and he dunks with intention

it's a drop off after that, but

Marble, Ricky Davis, & Darryl Moore are all in the discussion. May has the gift too, and his dunks have come at great times for this team. And I do love the way Mel kinda sneaks up on it and WHAM!

 

[LASBUR]

Agreed

End of thread.

Agree with Gerry Wright. If we had youtube footage of Gerry the rest of these young guys would know what we're talking about.
James Winters was a pretty good dunker too.

Sir Jamalot

Best dunker the last decade: Doug Thomas. Not debatable.

that coast to coast dunk was awesome!

Man, I looked all over the net. Amazing can't even find a photo of Wright dunking in an Iowa uniform. Anyone have any ties to the U of I vault find us something!

James skywalker winters was the best I've seen at Iowa. I'm 33

Gerry Wright is the best dunker. I feel sorry for the young guys who didn't get to see him play.

Are you sure it was loud, blue? Maybe people were just messing with you by fake clapping?

 

[TritonHawkeye]

Gerry Wright for the win. Doug Thomas had some monster dunks but Wright could really fly.

Blue, that's a highlight reel with multiple games.

It wasn't Iowa fans comparing them, it was national sportswriters. You evidently don't remember Jordan before he was Air Jordan and Marble before coke.


And I go back to the mid 70's, Gerry Wright is the best I ever saw in an Iowa uniform. Marble was probably second with Davis a close 3rd, though I could see an argument for flipping them. Wright was the best though.
