"For some reason or another, you sounded a little taller on radio."

I am surprised at Stewart's height as well.
I think colleges measure players with their cleats on and then round up. Pretty universal that players lose an inch when measured at the combine. 2 inches is surprising - as is OJ's measurement which is dead on.

So far OJ, Cam, Jonathan, and Ryan have been dead on if you accept 5/8 rounded up). Reuben was an inch shorter.

I'm glad to know our measurement staffers don't lie like all the other schools out there. :wink:

Good recruiting... there's little motive to exaggerate when nearly everyone is the textbook size for his position.

I don't know. Wouldn't leap to any conclusions till facts are available, which may never be available. Reuben has always appeared to have a good disposition so this is strange.
I agree. I would guess that it had something to do with his examination. His shoulder is not ready, he has made this clear (and passed along his medical files). But if you show up to the combine, the first step is measurements and a medical evaluation. It isn't clear at this point who sent him home, or if he did the team interviews before going home.

He was rally only there for the team interviews. He can do that any time.
