I don't know how I feel about this, I kinda like grouchy old people.

Let me introduce myself.

 

[RSHERMVIKES]

Oh, the most diverse, enthusiastic, wonderful group of personalities that us Boneyarders love so much!
There is NEVER a time watching & listening to UConn WBB that I don't smile!

I searched the Intartubes for Geno's height and the answer came back as 1.85 m. I find that very hard to believe!

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Now 77 I have lost an inch of height. I suspect Geno was once taller than KK. Small consolation I know. In personality Geno is at least 6'5".

Wait!!!!!!!!!!

This is the Boneyard. Height must be discussed in Hartley units.

Well, keep searching for it. Like most things it'll turn up in the last place you look.

Please forgive me, I'm new 'round these parts.

Bria Hartley is listed at 1.73, so 1.85/1.73 places Geno at 1.07 HU.

If we convert that to the Imperial system, officially used only in three countries: Liberia, Myanmar, and the USA that places Geno at 6' 1". He certainly doesn't look that tall standing with his players. Can anyone confirm or deny from personal experience of standing beside him?

BTW, we converted to SI (Système International d'Unités), colloquially known as the metric system, in the mid 1970s, but if asked my height and weight I'd still answer 6 feet and 13 1/2 stone rather than 1.83 m and 86 kg. Old habits...

By definition, Bria Hartley is exactly 1.0 Hartley Unit. But it's an unknown quantity.

This is one of the BEST Boneyard answers that I have ever seen! Magnificent!

There is no way Geno is 6'1".

Beyond the humor I think we can reasonably assume KK is a short 5-9, and Jana a short 6-5. Jana in particular was usually listed as 6-4 before she came to Uconn, and I think on some HS recruiting sites KK might have been shown shorter but I'm not to sure about that. Regardless there appears to be an incentive to "round up" so to speak, and I suspect there are many college players whose height is mildly overstated.
