Ohio State begins spring drills next week. Urban Meyer—who must've chartered a jet from Nassau to skip the Buckeye Cruise for Cancer's "day at sea" before Thursday's landing—turned his players (and Kerry Coombs) loose on the basketball program's practice courts at the Schottenstein Center.
After some full-court action, an impromptu dunk contest broke out. Sophomore outside linebacker Malik Harrison took home the crown by leaping over a man.
Another Ohioan showed freakish athleticism too. Redshirt sophomore defensive end Rashod Berry, who arrived in Columbus as a three-star athlete from Lorain in 2015, moved in a way a man his size (6-4, 252) shouldn't be able to move for a one-hand slam that must have been good for second place.

You won't be surprised to learn Berry also played basketball in high school. Here's his highlight reel, which is essentially four minutes of him dunking on less-athletic teenagers:
