Diminutive Ohio State guard posterizes much taller Florida player image

No, Ohio State is not participating in the NCAA Tournament this season. The Buckeyes finished 21-13 and 11-7 in the Big Ten and wound up on the wrong side of the buble when Selection Sunday rolled around.

But Ohio State is still in postseason play and on Sunday afternoon, the Buckeyes hosted Florida in an N.I.T. second-round matchup.

While the NCAA Tournament is the Big Dance, A.J. Harris, who stands up 5-9, did not get the memo. Here he is posterizing Florida's 6-9 forward Kevarrius Hayes.

A.J. Harris will have to wait next year for his chance at being a part of "One Shining Moment," but this dunk is sure to land him a spot on a Top 10 list.

Unfortuantely, the dunk was worth just two points, and Florida won the game 74-66.
