UConn Highlights: Stanley Robinson Dunks

The put-back dunk against Michigan State in the '09 final four will always be #1 for me. There were literally like eight guys in the paint and he just went to a higher floor. What happened afterwards kind of dampens the impact, but if you could freeze that moment in time it has to be one of the biggest surges of adrenaline in UConn history considering the stakes.

That was shocking. But Uconn still, thus far, owns the career series 10-1. If you give a team enough cracks, they are bound to get it right at some point....I kid of course....UCF could shorten the gap this year...ugh.
 
I did neglect a very good dunk due to the fact that it was the in Virginia Tech game that they lost in the NIT and I wanted to end on the senior night dunks against Louisville. But it still should be seen - here's a gif of it:

VTech was number one at one point?

That was fun.
Stanley was quick.
He knew where the basket was, and knew how to get there.
He was blessed with seemingly effortless ups, and his timing was impeccable.
Plus, he was a nice kid.

I loved the LSU player about 30 seconds in looking at the ref like, "Is he allowed to do that?"

Big Baby Davis!

That’s special right there!

LMAO.

SR dunking and doing his usual way over the top scream in the opponents face has Glen Davis (@ 0:30 mark) with the funniest face to the ref I've ever seen in game, good times.

Was that Gavin sealing off the defender?

Imagine how good this video would be if he actually had Big East level athleticism...
 
I feel for the current UConn college students.

We had some loaded teams, full of excitement and often domination. Had a fiery and demanding Coach along with fan pandemonium at every game. It was a mountaintop experience for a couple of decades.

We've got to get back to our roots!

this video reminded of how mean stanley and the '09 team were. they didn't take any crap and they imposed their will on every team. i loved when he yelled after each dunk. Idea - a mix of all the moments UConn bullied teams. Dunks, Blocks, hard fouls, trash talk, etc. We need it
 
Sticks definitely has to go down as the all time leader in college BB dunk screams. He is the master of dunk screaming!

Sticks played on the same team as Summers in Chile and sticks said to him "you know I blocked you on that dunk" and summers laughed and said "I know but everyone thinks I dunked on you"
 
Thanks Tcf15 you’ve done incredible work over the years but I feel bad for you. Like the coal industry or selling dvds all the work has dried up. Maybe this year you could do a video of possessions we didn’t turn the ball over or inbound passes that weren’t stolen.
 
I just watched it again....Stanley had swagger, attitude, brute force, and so much intensity in his game. The guy screamed his D**k off everytime he tried to rip the rim off the backboard. We haven't had ANYONE with these attributes come to Storrs since. Bazz had clutch gene but everyone since has wildly underwhelmed. Look at him and look at the current roster. WE ARE SO SOFT.
 
That dunk against Providence around the 2:00 minute mark...probably my favorite dunk ever but Sticks, Rudy, et al. certainly gave us a goldmine to choose from over the years. It's startling to see the difference between the personnel we used to bring in and who we have now. No disrespect to our current crop but damn, we were intimidating and powerful! Thanks tcf.

There is no comparison between Sticks and our PFs from Deandre to today. BUT, to say his game was as good as we thought it should be? There were a lot of people here who were underwhelmned by the entirety of his career at UConn. That being said, he showed what kind of player he was on the biggest stage (f4).

Sticks was insane... that was great to watch. Nice post!
 
Adrien's face around 5:53 says it all haha

Also that rebound dunk around 2:20 was absolutely filthy

Won't have another dunker like this one for a long time, if ever
 
No way we shouldn’t of made the tournament his senior year. Kemba Dyson Stanley Edwards was good. Oriakhi.

No shooting thi
