Well I guess that doesn’t matter because that’s not the way that it’s done by any program. guess i don't have any knowledge because if you scroll up, someone posted measurements of a bunch of guys with AND without shoes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very liberating. Personal record in those conditions is 27 out of 30 at the line. Best in traditional basketball attire is only 25 out of 30. Never tried it with high heels but will do so tonight and report back. how many shots can you get up before the police show up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You act like these basketball shoes are high heal shoes but basketball shoes are pretty much all the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FKIM01 Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 This thread has turned into pure comedic gold. If I'm Khristian Lander, I'm rolling on the floor at this point. Khristian...come to IU. No school, and I mean no school...has more entertaining, knowledgeable and passionate fans than IU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why not discuss with him how Lander is getting ready to commit to UL and how bad his weekend went at IU LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegrassIU Posted October 8, 2019 Report Share Posted October 8, 2019 Guys, we offer plenty of rope with allowing threads to get off topic. But you are all about to hang yourself with it. Let's get somewhat back on topic here please. Some variance is fine, but this thread has become full blown hijacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had those bad boys I'd be dunking still. yes! i knew a kid that wore those all around school every day and i poop you not, that kid could fly. he was a 6' 1" kid of greek heritage and he just floated around the rim. 180 dunks with ease. i was just starting out but i almost went to lynn nance at st. mary's to let him know about him. that was around 1986 and i had never seen those shoes before but the kid swore by them and if you saw his hops, who was i to argue?

Gordon to me still remains the best recruit IU has had this century. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But everything else he does is very high level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
