Colleges can write down any number they choose.
I would be willing to say a pro listed at 6'9 is a legit 6'9.

Yep I'm pretty sure Dorsey was listed in college at 6'9 but when he got measured for the pro's it was 6'6 1/2 or 6'7..I would say Shaq is probably 6'6, 6'7 at the most and Tarik might be just a hair taller..I've stood next to JJ and he is not 6 foot..Also when I was measured in College we did it with shoes on and I think the pro's do it with shoes off, I think..

and Joey was listed on NBA rosters as 6'8 268

Maybe he grew 2 inches taller after he left....

I think those are Dorsey's combine measurements up top.

I said hello to Shaq before SMU game, I'm 6-4 and he's up there.

Reminds me of a Darrell Arthur type player except potentially better. He will need a couple of years to develop in college but should eventually have a very nice NBA career
