247 says 6-4/212
ESPN says 6-3/225
TOS says 6-3/205
One thing I like about your reporting is that you regularly verify a players size with the player himself. Have you been able to verify the 6-4/212?

To my eyes, he looks like 6'4", 212lbs. CP was 225, or so, and North isn't as thick as he is.
Yet.

The 6-4, 212 measurement came directly from North a few months ago. I'm guessing that's still pretty close to accurate, because UT's official listing for him today was 6-4, 214.

Ryan, I know it's real early but, when can we expect a breakdown of our recruiting class including the EE's?

Excellent. I'm really excited about this guy. He's got great size and he can FLY. If he can learn to run good routes, this kid could be absolute superstar.

Height and weight, he has both. Someone said to me that I was overweight...I replied no, I'm just too short for my weight.....ok, ok, I'm upbeat on signing day as we gained more IMO than we lost. Go Vols!! Go Braves!!

I live close to Charlotte and have seen him play a couple of times and it was defiantly like watching a man playing among boys. He was a threat to score every time he touched the ball.
