I could dunk a HS girls basketball when I was in high school. Never in a game, mind you (as I didn’t play in the HS girls games.) I’d need a clear path and could only do it one handed. One guy on our team, six feet tall, could dunk two handed. All about plyometrics, son.

Similar … 5’11″. I rec’d a pair of ankle braces (old school suede) in 4th grade. I wore them nearly every day of my till 9th grade.

My senior year I was the punter on the football team and would stay after practice every day and punt 30-35. The spring you develop in your legs while punting is incredible.

After punts, I could dunk consistently with a full size b-ball but only from the left side with my right hand. At no other time could I ever dunk. ever.

They are also one of the most efficient ways to lose weight. During a fitness kick a couple years back I decided to step it up and bought on those weighted vests to wear during box jumps. Its a fantastic work out, but you have to be ok with looking like a complete jackass. An added benefit is it resembles a bulletproof vest at a passing glance; more than once I’d scare high school kids smoking pot off their stoops when i ran through the streets in NYC who must have thought I was police.

Charlie Weis is one the line and wants to know if you have any eligibility left. He’d like you at linebacker.

Wasn’t this already posted today and we commented on it?

much like Auburn basketball, it was probably ignored and we went back to calling mullet out for his terrible choices regarding fried chicken.
