I was aware we were upon the 20th anniversary of Jerome Lane's backboard breaking dunk, and more importantly Bill Raftery's reverberating call, but not until College Gamenight pointed it out did I know tonight was the night.

20 years ago SEND IT IN JEROME!!!! captivated my attention and as far as I can remember serves as one of my first memories of college hoops on television.

You can't go a college season without watching and joining Raftery in exalting his famous phrase, so carry on.

2	Sadly, when he moved on to the NBA he became Jerome Lame. The Nuggets would love to have that pick back, that and Todd Lichti.
