Just wanted to share this ridiculous picture of Malachi Dupre

So he's 6'2.5". His head is basically even with the rim, at 10'. That would give him a 46.5" vertical.
I can't wait to see this guy play in August. He's going to be grabbing jump balls from day 1 this season.

Its awesome but thats angled.. so his head is not actually at the 10' mark

he also got a running start, one would assume, while vertical leaps are measured from a standing position.

As was already pointed out, the angle creates the illusion of his head being even with the rim. Also , verts are not measured from top of head.

Just to be clear for future reference, if a guy runs a 40 and commits to LSU, the laser timed run (believe me it is always laser timed) is somewhere between 4.1214 and 4.29999. If someone jumps and goes to LSU, the rant wants additional proof about how high it is.

That's the pic I assumed was in the OP.

I hope everyone realizes that he's won state multiple times in high jump.

that's nice and all, but his head isn't at the rim

His feet would be at my waist. At least.

wat about the white kid? don't we have a white kid who can jump too? or is he just really good at catching?
Posted on 2/10/14 at 6:29 pm to jimbeam
You mean Quinn. People will only talk about his IQ and other pseudo-racist ways of saying he's white, but he really doesn't have a weakness as a receiver besides not being 6'4".
Posted on 2/10/14 at 6:30 pm to jimbeam
Quinn's the fastest player in this class
Posted on 2/10/14 at 6:33 pm to Lester Earl
Earl..would you liken him to Landry? Who does Quinn remind you of?
Posted on 2/10/14 at 6:37 pm to dreaux
Post the Quinn gif where he jumps up and one hands a catch. Absolutely amazing
