You can rank them or put them in "no particular order", but who are your top dunkers in Miss State Basketball History?

[She Mate Me]

Zimmerman
Roberts
Bowers
Smoke Burns
Sword

Lotta guys that could easily be on this list. These are just my favs.

This year's team has some serious leapers.

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

Wiley Peck has to be on this list! Carry On Youngsters

 

[aTotal360]

Gotta put Chicken higher on that list. He always put on a show at midnight madness.

 

[PineGroveBully]

Strong list, I’d prob swap Chuck Rhodes with Gordon, as he is States all time leader in dunks.

 

[The Situation]

How the fook is Dampier not on this list. After he damn near tore down the goals at Rupp in 1995 (ol blue's first hot tub visit).

 

[thatsbaseball]

I thought he was going to hurt somebody with a dunk in the 96 SEC tournament. He was a monster.

 

[hailstate19]

Gotta put Chicken higher on that list. He always put on a show at midnight madness.

It’s a shame Sword never played on a decent team. He was one of the few memorable players from the Rick Ray era.

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

The players in the early 80s said Gary Gaspard was the best dunker they every saw.

 

[tcdog70]

1 Zim
2 Gary Hooker
3 Rhodes
4 J money
5 Smoke Burns

 

[SixtInning]

Woodard has a chance to be on this list by the time it's all said and done.

 

[fieldcorporal]

Wiley Peck. Knocked himself out vs UGA.

 

[Crazy Cotton]

Yep. He screamed in the defenders face as he slammed it down on one of those. Scared me and I was up in the stands.

 

[Faustdog]

Below is the guy who should be at the top of every list. Behind him is probably Zimmerman, then Jamont Gordon. Gordon had a habit of elevating in traffic and dunking all over people. Cam Burns is fourth, and Charles Rhodes is fifth.

[Crazy Cotton]

down goes Frazier. still my favorite player of all time. And he's 37 now, you other old people.

 

[dawgstudent]

Michael Gholar could absolutely fly.

 

[Crazy Cotton]

How'd i forget Rhodes. He had some violent dunks when he was in his groove

 

[CookieMonster.sixpack]

Michael Gholar could absolutely fly.

This. A little surprised it took this many posts to see him mentioned.

 

[$altyDawg]

Where the hell is Fishwater? I thought he was the authority on all things dunking.

 

[Junction John]

Most have been mentioned, but I'll add two that haven't.

Ravern Johnson and Xavian Stapleton.

Ravern could fly. I hate X was injured so much and then went insane, but dude could throw down when his head was right.


Zimmerman and Donte would be at the top of the list if I had to rank my favorites.

 

[baseballnerd]

Any list without Cameron Burns is not valid

Yea, no way you can have a list without Donta number one. Pitino called him the most athletic player he ever coached. Zimmerman was a freak, but Donta was an even bigger freak and half a foot taller with a big wingspan. After those two, a guy who didn't show it as much in games but was also an athletic freak was Gholar.

 

[Hellsyeah]

I forget, is he the one who played football his last year and was the "kick blocker" or was that someone else?

Hard to dispute your list here.

 

[Drebin]

Michael Gholar could absolutely fly.

He also was here for 10 years. That has to be some kind of record.**

Renardo Sidney. He was an absolute legend at Shipley's and Krispy Kreme in Columbus thought about putting up a statue but that's a butt load of bronze.

 

[Yakcr1983]

This is EASY!!! JOHN RIEK

 

[StLouisDawg]

1.) Tang Hamilton
2.) Dontae Jones
3.) Timmy Bowers
4.) Charles Rhodes
5.) Jamont Gordon

Tang was tops... I witnessed a monsterous baseline cram of his against LSU with about 10 secs left in the 1H. The goal was rocking well into HT.

We currently have 3 monsters on this years team that could be on my list by seasons end.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Peck and Hooker

come to mind. Guess everything else is covered.
