Erik Stevenson 6'4" CG 2018 a Shocker!

[WstateU]

The only way we can determine the height of the platform is by stretching out a new recruits arm alongside it for comparison.

he says 6' on twitter

Then Erik is closer to 7' tall than 6'4"

I believe Erik. He's 6'4 which is 76". 72" is possible. Why would someone doubt him?

[ShockAzs]

We can deduce from this video that Erik's arms are 7'4 wingspan. 😁

Where do you get that he jumped 6 feet? Looks more like 5'4" to me.

So this tweet shows Eric at "level 9" of the jump. https://twitter.com/bhoop81/status/905314525397753856

I think that makes it look like the number 10 itself might be at 6 feet, but the platform hangs somewhat below the number. In the jump ("level 10" he calls it) that is supposed to be 6 feet, the platform is hanging roughly at the number 9 or even slightly below it. And based on the still image in the tweet that I linked to, if the number 9 is actually at 6 feet, then Eric is definitely closer to 7 feet, which is obviously not true. I think the number 10 on the pole is probably 6 feet roughly and the jump has gotta be much closer to 65 inches or something.

Not that any of it really matters. Still an impressive jump.

I think the Shocks got a good one here... He wants to be with a Winner!

Agree. He's 6-5 and that platform hit him in the chest. If you can jump over your own tits, you can get up just fine.

Tonight on Dateline...

Just how high did Erik Stevenson actually jump? We put our physiologists, engineers, last night's Holiday Inn Express guests, and a lone attorney on the task.

His arms seem to be abnormally short for his body size.

I wonder why people confuse the W hand gesture with the shocker?

Interesting that he is waiting until relatively late in the day on the last day of the early signing period. Maybe he is just teasing the Coaching Staff.

Or maybe that was just the best time for him to get his extended family into town to be there to witness his big moment, the first of what will be many!
