Thread is a little worthless without links and pics.

FWIW one of the best moves I ever saw was DJ in the tourney attacking the basket vs G Town and holding the "stonger more athletic" defender off with his right hand as he kissed the ball high off the glass . Incredible Moxy and strength given the second defender coming to block the shot .....

Dave Jamerson, hands-down.  52 points at Kent State his senior year and he didn't play the final 6.5 minutes.

I'm going with "Other"


Nothing was better than the video of TOS shooting layups in the background while a player was being interviewed.

Perhaps the biggest mystery of all on this list...where is Kenneth "I can dunk but have better things to do" Van Kempen?  Talk about a glaring omission.

Borna, that was a very sweet move! I can't say if it was the sweetest in Ohio history, but it's the best in recent memory.

LOL. I was just about to post this. Too bad the video was lost forever in the data purge. Anyone remember who was being interviewed? Sonny Johnson? Brandon Hunter? Jeremy Fears? I have no recollection, but I remember the TOS vertical like it was yesterday.

What was more impressive was he made slightly over 50% of the layups, and was 0 for 1 on the jumper.  I'm thinking it may have been a new comer to the program at the time, like a transfer...Jackson, Orr?

We may actually still have that video.  Ben had many of the videos on his computer he uploaded what he had to me over the summer...I just haven't gone through them to see what videos are there...but there is probably at least 100 of them.  

EDIT:  doesn't look like it...but I'll dig deeper tonight.  I did find a few clips with him in the background while Rollie interviewed J Jackson but he was only sporting some nice dress shorts and a polo, and he was just walking across the floor.

It was Jerome Tillman being interviewed and TOS airballed a layup attempt.

I immediately thought of Spindle Lee Graves when I saw this topic.

I voted for Frank Baumholtz.  Even though I'm not quite old enough to have ever seen him in person, I have seen film.  Also, I heard seniors in my youth tell me that he would routinely shoot from half court and make baskets from there.  Now granted that most courts in those days were not has long as the modern-day regulation courts, that's still a great job of shooting.  You might say he shot NBA three-pointers before they were cool and when they only counted two points!

         How about Tommy Freeman's 3 in the closing seconds to take down the Red-Chickens.  Not sure about some of you,  but that was one of the most incredible things I have ever witnessed.

Jeremy Fears three pointers vs. Buffalo. Williams tip-in. Antonio Chatman runner in the lane. How about a Sonny Troutman steal and finger roll?
