Josh Carlton Height?

[MexicoHusky]

I know we love discussions about Height. Per the UCONN website, Carlton has grown an inch every year. Is this accurate? It seems there are 3 possibilities:
1. it's Legit, the young man is still growing
2. Classic marketing/communications dept height inflation
3. New hairstyle tricked the tape measure

If this trend continues, Carlton will be a 7 footer as a senior

So ur saying by March we should have a legit 7-footer? Awesome!

Don't know but 6'10" seems about right. Josh seems to have very long arms which help since he isn't explosive off his feet.

They released their official measurements before the season Carlton came in at 6’9.5 w/o shoes, so likely 6’10.5 w/ shoes. Don’t think he’s grown 2 inches since coming here maybe 3/4 an inch. The new hairstyle helped.

By my math he will only be 6'12"

Also he's grown his hair out.

He would appear to be 79/84 Hilton Units.

We need to maximize Hilton Units. The Athletic Department should invest in one of these.

Love that they have him listed at forward too. Has he played even a second at the 4 since he came here?

 

[Thirty Three]

He’s 6’10”

what's with these numbers? unless it's in stones and hands, I have no clue. either way, that's some big horse.

His freshman picture sure looks a lot like a young Rudy Carlton Gay.
