That was nasty. One of the best dunks I’ve ever seen.
Seriously one of the best dunks I’ve ever seen in a live game.
Just filthy.
Just filthy.
If I had the ability to dunk that’s how I would want to dunk. That was awesome. Said he’s gonna have some big dunks this year especially put backs
That was sick, if we as a team could bottle that dunk and play with that intensity then we may be pretty good sometime.
A cradle back to really cram it on him
that's what I liked about it
that's what I liked about it
That was sick! Seemed like he was in the air forever!
Dirk Minnifield, Rex, Derek Anderson, and Colin Chandler.
All great but I don't think I will ever see a better dunk than the Minnifield Masterpiece ... another world amazing.
Spectacular Dirk Minniefield Dunk
Agree 100% ... and while we're on that subject, if wish somebody could post Dirk's dunk again - just for old times' sake.
There’s some hyperbole in this thread about it being the best dunk people have ever seen but it really was a Great dunk. It reminds me of another big dunk from the last few years. Multiple Arkansas fans running their pole smokers in that tweet. We better beat their *** this year.
Pardon the pun but we need Mor-mon! The pop from the crowd sounded crazy on that one. Then the stare down like that guy was crazy for even trying changed my whole view on CC. If he can get that same confidence against a little better competition maaan get the daffy gif ready
I like the confidence and little bit of attitude afterwards. We need more of that from the whole team.

I was at that game. Thought the arena would implode. Never heard anything that loud before.
^^This comment says it all^^
I was coming here to post a thread on this dunk.... glad it's already here.... well done. Nextto the Minnefield dunk, this is one of the most mnemorable in my 50+ years !!
Go Big Blue
I want at least one of those every game. Spoil me.
I keep watching the replays to enjoy all of the teammate reactions!
Either him or somebody with 32.5 million followers impersonating him
Agree. I think Chandler's dunk is the second best in UK history, at least captured on tv.
I say captured on TV because mkg had an absolutely filthy dunk vs a small team that came off a steal, but the tv camera didn't pan to the action in time and basically missed it. It would be in contention with this Chandler dunk but no one at home got to see it.
it’s like I always say I’ve been in Rupp and came out with ears ringing. Rupp is not only intimidating because of size, it’s also very loud. Too many think because we don’t have 2000 foreign exchange students with 4.2 computer engineering GPA’s politely yelling that it’s not loud. Rupp is very loud. Half the time it’s just an NBA crowd yes but when it’s loud it’s the loudest basketball arena I’ve ever seen. I’ve been to Phog and Cameron, Dean Dome, and many of the SEC. Also been to a slew of smaller gyms. I was surprised at Cameron to see it was not full. Duke doesn’t sell out at all sometimes and it happens in the back corners but the cameras didn’t show it. That’s how weak Dukes real fanbase is, can’t even always fill their little gym. I believe it was around that time that coach K called out the Duke fans and students for not filling it too. The two loudest arenas I’ve ever been in were Phog and Rupp. I’d say the loudest I’ve ever heard an arena get was Rupp in the mid 2,000’s.

We were there too and it was more amazing in person and you are right, it really got the crowd roaring. Chandler is growing into one of my favorite players this year. His intensity on both ends of the court needs to spread to the rest of the team. Solid player.
The way the announcer (Ravi Moss?) says “On His Head” is absolutely classic.
