Red Bruin had the best vertical.

He made Waters' list and definitely belongs. Red had serious hops.
Good call! I remember an SU vs Georgetown game where Red grabbed an offensive rebound with Patrick Ewing nearby and then, from a standing position, going back up and dunking over Ewing! It was truly awesome to watch. For you younger guys, Bruin was maybe 6'4"Red Bruin...……………………………………..then Stevie...Hak….Sease. Red would take off from the baseline off both feet and the whole Dome would rise.
I think Red played before Mike was in Syracuse, so he really did his homework and must have talked to those who saw him play.Was impressed Mike remembered Red.
Surprised Tony Scott didn't get more mentions.Interesting one.
He made some good choices. A few others that come to mind that haven't been mentioned yet:
David Johnson. That guy could hang for a long, long time.
Cliff Warwell. I think he might be the best in terms of vertical ever, at least since I have been an SU fan. But he wasn't around very long.
Tony Scott. Another explosive, outstanding athlete who could just jump out of the gym. Sadly, he also didn't hang around long enough at Syracuse,
He had a dunkno er Ewing that I will never forget, but can't find on You tubeHe made Waters' list and definitely belongs. Red had serious hops.
