I’m at the point in life where I’m shrinking each year now. Was 6’3 and now 6’2.5”. Watched my Dad go from 6’2 to 5’11 as he got into late 80’s. Now it is happening to me. Circle of life.
I saw Andre the Giant on campus once headed to the Con-Dome for a match in the early 80s. He was in the front passenger seat and his head took up the entire window and it was not a small window.
The American volleyball star Flo Hyman was incredible but also suffered from marfan syndrome. She was phenomenal. RIP.
I'm thinking WR for situations inside the 5 yard line. Doesn't have to cover any ground and can just catch lobs without having to take too many hits at all. I'm genuinely curious now after initially just kidding. Even as a novelty/decoy it would require attention from a defense and open up the endzone for others potentially. Or he would get broken in half in a horrifically failed experiment.
My first year at UF, I went to a Battle Royal wrestling event in Alligator Alley. Andre the the Giant was one of the warriors.
seems like a sweet kid (and not just because he's Canadian) Looks like he's really enjoying his height
Good to see him working on weights and skills even while he's not in Gainesville. I sure would like to see him get some playing time this season but it's doubtful he gets anywhere near the regular rotation. I don't know the rules on eligibility if he does get a few appearances. Does he lose a year if he plays at all?
Yeah I’d love to see him on the court but with a redshirt year and development we could have him for some very productive years if he stays for all 4 of eligibility / 5 total. He really does have pretty good hands and footwork, will be interesting to see if the staff and trainers can get him into game form by next season
He is the only player on the current roster who is projected by the various draft services that I have seen to get drafted. Granted, that does not mean a lot.
