This was my favorite UT dunk since a little guy is not really supposed to elevate like this, but Ivan Wagner as a high jumper, was not your average athlete. Spring 1998 was the first time Kansas visited Austin since 1938 and had Paul Pierce and Raef Lafrentz; UT had Mihm and Luke Axtell. Wagner, last time I checked, was working for UT so if any of you know him, tell him that he made Youtube.

That is definitely in my all-time Top 10 Texas dunks, along with the aforementioned slam by Mouton against OU.

James' jam against Nebraska last night is a Top 10-er, too.
 
He had one another awesome dunk too, I can't remember who against, but IIRC he was a on a fastbreak about even with the defender and he dribbled faster than the guy could sprint and got far enough ahead to bring the ball back behind his head with one arm to jam it.

The funny thing about those 2 insane dunks is he only had like 1 or 2 other dunks in his UT career.

There's one other awesome one by Mouton against OU, his senior year at home I think, he started on the left wing, took one dribble to the middle of the floor and covered an incredible distance as he picked up the dribble, landing on two feet in the middle of the paint and jumping from there to dunk it with 2 hands.
