Who remembers the Grant Hill slam dunk vs Kansas in the NCAAT Championship game of 1991?

What were the words Billy Packer used to describe the dunk? I remember this like it was last night....

I'll give this answer away since its more of a memory than trivial.

"That's a David Thompson like dunk from yesteryear"


I'll post a trivia question in a few minutes.

Danny Ferry scored 58 points vs Miami, who holds the highest single game scoring high since Ferry's 58?

Who was the Duke opponent when this highest point total since Ferry was scored? And, what current Olympian was on the losing team?

Seems like Redick dropped 41 on Texas. But pretty sure Durant came the year after in 06-07. So maybe it's someone other than Redick..

You got the Duke player, points scored, and opponent correct.

Put a little more thought on the opposing player now Olympian. He's a probable HOF'er.

Aldridge was the only serious NBA player on that team IIRC. Durant came a year later. Except Aldridge isn't going to Rio. So not sure if you meant Durant or maybe a guy from another country that made the Olympics? But outside of KD and Aldridge, I don't think Texas has anyone from those years that will sniff the HOF.

Ben Simmons had a legit chance to pull of that feat. But this happened many years ago - 1970's to put you in the right time frame.

It was Strickland. All alone to the hoop and he didn't even come close.

Roy took a shooting guard and turned him into a player that can't shoot.

Yes it was Strickland.



I still remember that wonderful , warm, teary eyed, standing ovation that the warm wonderful fans and wine and cheese crowd gave him on senior day. That was one of the most moving moments that I can remember in sports history. That had to make every top notch 5 star recruit that witnessed that to want to be a part of the family so he could have a senior day like that because we all know that anyone who commits to unc will be given the privilege of a senior day because hof coach roy williams only recruits those kind of players no matter how good they are. Even as a Duke fan when I saw the tribute to strickland I choked up. OFC

The US Women's National Team (soccer) won last year's World Cup. The are looking to defend their gold medal at the current Olympics.

How many times has the defending Women's World Cup Champion also won the gold medal the following year?

The correct answer is 0. It has never happened, we are trying to be the first. SKy was closer so he's up.

Who replaced Mickey Mantle as the Yankees starting center fielder beginning in the 1967 season. However Mantle did not retire until March of the 1969 season. Hint number one. He was replaced in center field by a team mate who was a starter. This should be pretty easy for old baseball fans. OFC

Pepitone!!??? Ended up at 1B....

OFC

Joe Pepitone is correct. He was the Yankees regular 1st baseman so he and Mickey just switched positions. Joe had some potential but he lived the off field life that Mickey did but without the talent of Mickey. Just a note going back to Murcer. Both he and Mickey were from Okla. and were shortstops when they came to the Yankees You are up hart. OFC
