Can anyone touch the top of the backboard?
During the Ohio State Florida game, one of the announcers said that college football coaches should create a special position in which basketball players, such as Joakim Noah, would be used to block extra points and field goals. He showed a clip of a football player going up for a block and said he was about nine and a half feet up. He then claimed that Noah could get up to 13 feet and touch the top of the backboard. I also remember hearing that Dwight Howard could do this but, I've never seen anybody get that high during a game. Does anybody think that it's possible for a guy to actually leap up and touch the top of the backboard? If so, are there any existing videos of someone actually doing it?
