Just so this doesn't get buried in the game open thread. Here's the dunk for those that missed it.
Sorry for the lack of embedding...I didn't know how to do it.

Good thing for Glenn that Zack graduated or else he might have competition for being the dunk king of Ann Arbor [/sarcasm]
Awesome dunk

I got the shotgun. You got the briefcase. It's all in the game though, right?
Best Michigan team since
1993 Fab Five team. Not quite as talented, but better coached and better point guard. I loved watching Jalen back in the day, but he was not a legit point guard.

Speaking of which, CWeb did a 360 on Indiana
However, we were getting blown out at the time....

And he included the salute. Instant classic.
Haha gotta love Minnesota
Haha gotta love Minnesota facepalm guy in the background after the dunk.
EDIT: You can only see him on the first go round as once the gif is in full swing, it moves too fast. The guy is full bore facepalm though.

Re..Remember that time
When GR III had that break away? And then he uhhhh......he got a full head of steam towards the basket? Remember that? And then....then ummmmm.......he did that crazy 360 degree dunk?
THAT WAS AWESOME!!

Don't sweat it, man...

Hell yeah
Now THAT was awesome!
Do you realize that Farley was still alive the last time Michigan beat a Top 10 team on the road? And that the fucking Macarena was at the height of its popularity? That song was anything but awesome.......

If a beggars could be choosers, i'd love to have seen him throw it off the backboard and then throw it down, Rucker style.
Touchdown Michigan!
Not gonna lie, this is what I
Not gonna lie, this is what I was thinking in my head that he should do. I didn't actually think he was going to do anything fancy, so I was pleased with the 360.
He had a pretty powerful dunk
He had a pretty powerful dunk earlier in the game too. can't remember when it was but someone should add that to this thread too.

Stauskas' Dunk needs some love
Does anybody has?
I LOVE MICHIGAN
Just an absolute disgusting
Just an absolute disgusting dunk in a game. I love how quiet the crowd was after that.
On a side note, do you think he could have been whistled for traveling if a ref felt like being a dick?
Go Blue
To be honest
No. Not even close to a travel.
Not even close?
It will never get called, but because he gathered the ball with one foot on the floor, technically his feet would need to land simultaneously on the jump stop to be legal. It was a fair question, and if traveling rules were strictly enforced (which was the question), it COULD have been called. I don't have a huge problem with that not being called, because it it wasn't egregious. However, the amount of traveling that takes place (and, even worse, what people now believe to be legal) is one of the most frustrating aspects of the current game. The NBA is the worst, of course.
to be a technical dick
he was travelling....but it would have been still worth it if he was called....great dunk!
They won't call traveling on
They won't call traveling on an uncontested breakaway. They'll call it if the guy gains a clear advantage from the walk.
Awesome
Awesome...
That is all!!!

This is a very complicated case, Maude. You know, a lotta ins, a lotta outs, a lotta what-have-yous.
How is handing on the rim a
How is hanging on the rim a foul but doing a 360 is not? As much as I enjoyed it, I was shocked when he didn't get whistled for that.
Every time an MGoBoard poster complains about a thread topic, God kills a baby panda.
I love that his power dunk
I love that his power dunk earlier and the 2 alley oops to Thjr are totally overshadowed by this dunk. Just goes to show the athleticism on this team. Man this team is special.
