The Original Jumpman

| No Comments

The "Jumpman" logo is synonymous with Michael Jordan and his Nike empire, but "His Airness" did not strike the pose until his rookie year in 1985.  However, Sports Illustrated's Andy Gray tweeted out this photo of USC Heisman winner Marcus Allen doing his best "Jumpman" in 1981.

Controversy?  Maybe not.  But, it is an epic 80's style living room basketball photo nevertheless...
