Is that the greatest dunk in the history of Ohio basketball? (I do not mean in degree of difficulty.)
Absolutely IMO. I'm sure someone will come up with some that are close but the only ones that I can remember are Flomo's dunk at UNC and Gary Trent in OT against New Mexico State in the finals of the Preseason NIT. Devo's was so big and much more important.
I remember being in 8th grade watching that UNC/Ohio game on ESPN 2. UNC had made a huge run to get back in that game, and had all of the momentum. I was beyond nervous thinking that we had blown that game. After UNC made another basket, the ball was inbounded to Brandon Hunter, who motioned everyone else to go. He wanted no one else taking the ball up court. He took it up to the three point line, then drove. The heels collapsed, and he dished it to a wide open Patrick Flomo, who threw it down as hard as he could. The Dean Dome was silenced. My Dad (Ohio Alum) and I were at my house in NE ohio going nuts. That was one of the most memorable plays that I can think of. Glad you brought that up!
