Roster

[Jssanto]

The new roster is out with several changes. I have questions.
1. Why the secrecy and changing heights and weights? Some up and some down, is there some type of advantage here?
2. Do only the coaches know the real numbers?

I don't think deception is at hand more than ever has been. Weights naturally fluctuate during the season and off season. Young guys grow taller. Like the idea of having 2 6'6" guards in Gunn and JH-S. Logan now 6'10" is welcome. An already slender Bates dropping a couple lb. did catch my eye. I hope he's lost it because of extra hours in Cook. Geronimo losing a little weight maybe attributed to the same cause. A lighter Leal is positive. Absolutely certain he lives in Cook.

Yep, that would be nice, except that JHS is 6'4 and CJ is 6'5, LD, 6'9, TJD 6'8, and Race and Kaleb are 6'7. TG is 6'3. I guess all teams, not just IU, increase heights by at least an inch.

Are you the team's official tape measure guy or just have a knack of visually determining heights?

 

[BusdriverE]

If a player grown/shrunk an inch, could be somebody used a different tape, player wearing shoes vs not, personally don't give aff, what I want to see is increased shooting %, t/o ratio and of course, the most important metric of all..........have they increased their vertical jumping 😉😉

yes (self appointed), and am hoping for free tickets to games. I'll keep it real. : )

There are two heights to every player. In their stocking feet and with shoes on. IU. like everyone, takes the "with shoes on" height.

Yes, but at IU, it is measured at shoes on plus one or two inches. My job is to tell the "shoes on" truth. Have not heard back yet from Woody. Do you think I should get NIL $$ since it is a non-paid job?

I expect you are as accurate/inaccurate as the roster listing.

 

[Matt Banker]

Should be quite easy to measure considering they have boards right out side of the Cook Hall weight room to measure this and wing span.

I am much more accurate than the IU posted roster, much more. NIL $$, send my way!

I'm thinking of the Andy Griffith episode where Barney has to pass the Civil Service physical.

Guess there's no arguing with you. Since you were present when they measured and recorded the false #'s.
