#POSTERIZED: Larry Nance Jr. does the "Jumpman"

In case you haven't been following along with the #BIAHroadtrip, we briefly debated trekking from Lawrence, KS to Laramie, WY in order to cover the SDSU vs. Wyoming game. The only problem was Rob started pushing for this idea at 3:00AM and Laramie, WY is 11 hours away from Lawrence, KS.

There will be more on this controversy in the near future, but for now let's discuss the "highlight-reel dunk of the year" candidate that Wyoming's Larry Nance Jr. threw down last night.

You've probably seen the dunk, but if not, here it is:



I'll be honest. I'm not too terribly impressed with this dunk. Sure, it probably got the crowd rockin', but it just kinda doesn't fancy me too much.

Yes, it's true, this dunk is a great silhouette of the Michael Jordan "Jumpman" logo. But Nance didn't jump nearly as high of the ground as Jordan did, so the dunk just ends up looking goofy.

That being said, it's still kinda impressive.

But was it as good as these?
