The good news is JC is still around to see the "growth" of this team...................literally!!

There's not a big difference between 6'9'' and 6'10''. Jeff Adrien was a generous 6'8'' and was one of the best rebounders we've ever had. Like Ollie said, "You gotta have heart to get the ball. You gotta slam into bodies and get the ball."

Forget that, is it solid muscle?

Jeff was lucky to be 6'6" more than likely a 6'5 1/2" guy which tells the story of hard work..........if he had AO's size and body he'd be on an NBA roster for 15 years.........

Jeff Adrian was a lot closer to 6'5" than he was to 6'8".

If Jeff Adrien was 6'10 and all of his skills and intangibles were exactly the same, I would bet he would be destined for the HOF.

We can only hope

His senior year he was listed at 6'7'' his senior year, sorry.

His senior year he was listed at 6'7'' his senior year, sorry.

Yeah, and Ryan Boatright is listed at 6'0''
