SportsCenter does such a great job of story telling. Cool to see Mike Legg became a firefighter and appears pretty content. Thanks for Posting this @Blueline Bomber.

The Famous Leggy Goal

It should be called the Legg, not the Michigan

Nice video but should have gone more into how Bill Armstrong came up with it and had been doing it for a few seasons before that

My brother in christ, this is an internet forum. If we weren't allowed to complain, it would shut down.

Do tell. Just what are you doing with this post other than complaining and contributing nothing?

The Michigan should give players a free ride to slash away. Only way to defend it if player is parked behind the goal. Stupid sideshow trick.

A bit over the top calling it something that has changed the game forever

It was cool in 1996.

As a kid, I remember encountering people who were still clinging to the opinion that basketball was cheapened by the gimmick of dunking.

People can be pretty dumb sometimes.

Was that before or after travelling ceased to exist?

That said, there is an interesting article on that. Though I don't find the moves remotely comparable. One is a staple that almost anyone in the respective league can do. The other is a move that requires a certain skill, timing and execution.....and overuse is bound to get your ass kicked lol

The history of the slam dunk: from outlawed move to beloved highlight

The NBA Slam Dunk Contest has become an institution in modern basketball. But for years dunks were outlawed in college and high school games
