C.J. Keyser sg 6-4 2016, A Shocker!

[Stickboy46]

Mouth is probably more like 4-7 inches below the top of one's head.

Well yes, But when rotating your head upwards, your mouth becomes closer to the top of your standing height

I was reminded when reading a few of the tweets on his page about the subtracting of a star when signing to a non-bcs school (Wichita St.). Amazing and just painfully obvious what the powers that be try to dictate to the masses. Someone on there mentioned a new recruit Kentucky signed and he went from a no-name to a 5-star. Lol

This is CJ's dad's twitter. Go down 5th tweet. It's a retweet from Brandon Dorf.

Yes closer, but not more than an inch or maybe two -- your neck is your neck.

I was bored, so I measured how much difference it would make on height. For me, with my head level, my mouth is about 7 inches lower than the top of my head. When I tilt my head fully back, it raised my mouth 3 inches. If the same holds true for CJ, it means that, with head tilted back, his mouth is at about 6 feet. That means that he had to jump 4 feet (48 inches). Of course, there is a big difference between a running jump and a standing vertical jump, but still.

48" is crazy running or not.

I did the same thing and got the same result! Now, if only I had a 48" running vertical!

I love the internet. We truly are living at the peak of civilization.

Maybe, but I hope not.

If we are at the peak of civilization I'm running to the Douglas Street bridge and jump. Of course I would have to land on my belly if I wanted to drown.

should have specificed.


.... as we know it.

Okay, Rivals now shows CJ's commitment to the Shockers. I'll stop hmmmmmmmmmmmmming.

[shockmonster]

The amazing thing about this feat is that C.J. had to be under extreme control because he was kissing the rim(a somewhat dangerous stunt). If he is just going up for a dunk, he can get his head above the rim much more.

But did they bump him back up to a 4-Star???? Or was that only a ESPN thing?
