at least. That 6'10" is likely stocking feet and they don't record it that way anymore. i have been quoting others on the 6'10" and only adding my judgement that he is at least that. He is a very big center, fast, athletic, powerful, and surprisingly conditioned for 6 weeks off his mission

We should all find out soon.

Corbin Kaufusi won't play football this year, will play basketball.

Good, he's too tall to play football now.

7/23/14 12:29pm

Not sure Bryant McKinnie agrees. He's shortlisted at 6'8".

lawboy

7/23/14 12:37pm

Don't think Elder Kaufusi would lie to his Mother while on his mission

roseyscenario

7/23/14 12:39pm

My piont was he's perhaps not too tall for football.

lawboy

7/23/14 12:41pm

Have you ever seen a 6'10" football player?

7/23/14 12:45pm

Closest I can think of is Jonathan Ogden. He was 6'9?

JDBlue

7/23/14 12:47pm

And he was an absolute freak, extremely rare exception.

7/23/14 12:48pm

Too Tall Jones was 6'9" as well.

fredgarvin

7/23/14 1:00pm

So... 6'9" is Too Tall?

dilbert

7/23/14 1:10pm

I think 6'9" is the limit, and those guys have to be freaks.

7/23/14 1:13pm

No, but too-tall is 6'9"

7/23/14 1:35pm

Bryant McKinnie. OL Miami Hurricanes 2001, and NFL vet.

lawboy

7/23/14 12:48pm

He's 6'9", not 6'10". And there are very few 6'9" players that have....

7/23/14 12:49pm

I've been told he is 6'11" and they shortlist him.

lawboy

7/23/14 12:52pm

He's not. Avid Vikings fan here. Unless he and Phil Loadholdt are both 6'11"

BarraCouga

7/23/14 1:11pm

That guy is wrong, he was measured at 6'8" or 6'9" at the combine.

7/23/14 1:14pm

Tallest player in NFL history was 7'0"

fredgarvin

7/23/14 1:07pm

Kaufusi is even taller than he is at 6'10", McKinnie is 6'9" and no NFL player..

7/23/14 12:44pm

great news.

riboflavin

7/23/14 12:31pm

nice. love how much deeper this team will be than it has been

BlueK

7/23/14 12:32pm

Did he get much interest from any BBall coaches coming out of HS?

dilbert

7/23/14 12:33pm

Supposedly grew from 6'6" to 6'10" on his mission.

BarraCouga

7/23/14 12:34pm

I think he graduated HS at 6'8"...

icecougar

7/23/14 2:50pm

still on football schollie since bball doesn't have one? How does that work?

curry30

7/23/14 12:36pm

it's always counted against the scholarships of the sport that is played

BlueK

7/23/14 12:40pm

He should play football. Kick block specialist.

BarraCouga

7/23/14 12:46pm

if that's the choice, basketball would seem to be more fun from his perspective

BlueK

7/23/14 12:47pm

I'm assuming he keeps the football schollie for a year but...

BarraCouga

7/23/14 12:52pm

the reports may be wrong, but if it's correct that he's a "walkon" for

BlueK

7/23/14 12:56pm

Right. Wasn't really being serious.

BarraCouga

7/23/14 1:14pm

since his dad is a school employee does he need one?

Ft Worth Cougar

A coordinated big man is always a welcomed addition.

byubyu

7/23/14 12:36pm

Finally. James Anderson sure left a void.

flyusaf

7/23/14 12:41pm

How was he in HS?

flyusaf

7/23/14 12:37pm

good - but he has grown 6 inches since last he played. Different player now

7/23/14 12:37pm

He wasn't 6'3"-6'4" as a senior in high school.

byubyu

7/23/14 12:39pm

. Ok, so he grew 5 inches. Thanks for the correction

7/23/14 12:40pm

I seem to remember reading he was 6'8" in his senior year when BYU was...

icecougar

7/23/14 3:00pm

Nice. This might work out well

7/23/14 12:37pm

is this the guy that looks just like Michael Alisa?

Mayor of Cougartown

7/23/14 12:38pm

Only from the neck-up, apparently.

Mantis Mutu

Who will break the news to Gonzaga?

gustav88

7/23/14 12:38pm

King Kong Kaufusi returns.

byubyu

7/23/14 12:40pm

They already know about it. The resulting thread could be epic

BeardedSpock

7/23/14 2:41pm

Where is the roster spot coming from?

CaliWG

7/23/14 12:42pm

my guess is someone redshirts

BlueK

7/23/14 12:44pm

You would think, but...

CaliWG

7/23/14 12:56pm

RS Worthington and don't second guess it

CoopDizz

7/23/14 2:05pm

I would rather redshirt Andrus

BYUheaven

7/23/14 2:10pm

Not me; Luke could use an extra year working on coordination

CoopDizz

7/23/14 2:46pm

Just Cut Halford. He Will NOT See Much PT This Season

Coug76

7/23/14 4:19pm

If KC misses a few game, Chatman could very well be starting

BYUheaven

7/23/14 2:16pm

Tweet said he would "walk on". No schollie.

Rhino84

7/23/14 1:14pm

Doesn't matter, there's a 15 man roster maximum regardless of scholarship status

CaliWG

7/23/14 1:15pm

Sorry. Reading failure on my part!

All surprises over next few months to be positives on this future great center!

I really like this for three reasons

Heinz57

7/23/14 1:03pm

Your reasons are persuasive.

Archaea

7/23/14 2:42pm

He's 6'11" now? Just this morning he was 6'10".

StantonMac

7/23/14 3:35pm

This morning? Not following?

Heinz57

7/23/14 6:57pm

You listed him at 6'11" in your post, he's 6'10".

7/23/14 7:17pm

Yes my post said 6'11" inches, but I posted that in the afternoon

Heinz57

7/23/14 7:24pm

i'm pretty sure he'll be listed at 6'11" He looks same height as Coach Pope

roseyscenario

7/23/14 8:59pm

I am fine with it as long as he is not taking a football scholarship if he is
