I don't think he meant the jump in this specific picture but "that jump" as in Kinsey's ability to jump in general.

The title of this topic kind of hints that he actually was talking about the last play

That average freshman on that final inbounds pass vs WKU

The kid can get off the ground but.....is it 42, 43, 44, or 41, 40, 39...?

"We've had my vertical leap measured a couple of times after weightlifting, when I was tired," said the Columbus, Ohio, native. "But never, 'Hey, we're going to test your vertical leap today.'

"So, I really don't know how high I can jump."

That's why Danny D'Antoni has resorted to an educated guess. Marshall's veteran coach has been telling the media that Kinsey has a 42-inch vertical leap.

Why 42 inches?

"I remember watching how high David Thompson could jump," reasoned D'Antoni, referring to the former N.C. State and NBA star. "Then I watched Taevion and saw his feet (off the ground) and they were about the same."

Hmm, the tale of the eyeball.

At the Virginia game, i heard several of their fans say a variation of "Man, that #1 could jump!". He is super atheltic. He has talked about hitting his head on the rim several times in the past. Thats at least 43"-44" vertical. I've never seen a leaper like him.

Well. You are a Marshall fan. So.

Just a guess but I would bet 1/3 of college basketball teams have a kid in that 38 to 42 range. George Fant had a 37-inch vertical weighing in at 297 pounds

It's a good photo. But it's also a dunk that he ran up on. The other photo is just a standing jump in front of the inbounds line.

As to the photo I just reported what the guy who took it said. It was just a good action shot that is pretty phenomenal to see.

With another 20 point game last night I think we can put that average freshman BS to sleep, and maybe WKU can let Savage off the hook. Kinsey is going to get his. He's a starter for a reason and good luck stopping him.

Well, to be fair, the picture of Kinsey is on the way up. There's a second photo out there from the same view a split second later and you just see his ankles and shoes. Almost hit his head on a rafter.

RE: That average freshman on that final inbounds pass vs WKU
While watching the game last night it reminded me of this picture (moving picture) when the TV color guy brought it up

Anderson was up high enough, Jon Elmore had time to roll on the ground, look around and for coach Dan to yell out; Get the hell up son and run, dont be stupid, run for your life.






If we are in the same conference long enough and I dont see any reason why it would change...in the near future. Marshall and Western is going to be the best rivalry in CUSA. Not only for basketball but football also. To be a good rivalry you need to carry over to both sports.

RE: That average freshman on that final inbounds pass vs WKU
Last night:
3 points, 3 rebounds, 3 fouls, 25% from the floor, 1 technical foul for taunting his opponent, and a loss in 27 minutes.

But man, that vertical though...

RE: That average freshman on that final inbounds pass vs WKU
I understand the reason for the no-taunting rule. You don't even want to take a baby step down that path in college basketball.

But it has gotten mighty touchy. Our sophomore center picked up a potentially game-critical T last night in Charlotte for just staring at his opponent after a block.

Did he get his last night? We don’t need luck stopping him. Just effort on the defensive end, which we got last night. THAT is why we were all over Savage.

His leaping ability is amazing. He killed FIU by finishing numerous lobs. He is a fun player to watch. I’d love to see him in a dunk contest.
