LOL. I think Fran must have told him he needs to be ready to be dancing in year one and so Clemons has been working on his steps - 1,2,3 -step- 1,2,3...

Like we don't see traveling in that situation in about every game in college and pro basketball. They never call it though Ed might.

What, he got one dribble in between half court and the rim??? Nice play though.

 

[ISUonthemove]

I think that was honestly, 5 steps.

 

[herbyhawk]

i like the dunk Jordan style not quite the distance fr the FT line but he did get up there for a 6'1 kid that's pretty good, and he has the quicks to defenitely improve the perimeter defense

Yep, you are right. Five steps on the possession and three steps on the layup.

The called Dondre Alexander of ICW for something almost exactly the same in the state tourney finals..

Best part was seeing Bergie laugh about it...dude has really mellowed...

I'm not sure about a travel after the dribble, but I think he might have taken 5 or 6 steps before he dribbled. lol

Mellowed? He was the mellow one of my former coaches.

But they were super fast and short steps......those don't count....right.....right?

Nope,those little stutter steps don't count. That means he only traveled once.

When did you have him?

'90/'91 here...

Actually the one after the dribble is easy to call, because they give you a slo mo shot where you can count, 1, 2, 3.

Yup, definitely 3. His first step was just a tad late. It doesn't really matter though. Teddy & Eddie would have called him for a foul on the shot block.

The season before. Weird thing is both of my former coaches won state titles this year.

I was at that game, Clemmons is lightning fast, the video does him no justice...my wife and I thought he took a few extras when we saw it, but it was impressive how fast he went from the block to the rim.
The kid he blocked was very good and a junior, I lost my program, but I will be keeping an eye on him. He took Valentine to the rim a lot in the game and blew by him, hence why you see Clemmons on him at that time. When Clemmons started to guard him, the game changed and turned into a blowout.
