I've seen UT give out heights and weights on players for over 40 years and a good 50% are distorted..

Keith Davis, mid 80s running back came in as a freshman at 6'1". each year he got shorter and left UT at 5'9"..

my advice is to NOT believe UT released measureables. they ahve way too many errrors to be believable... on purposes I believe

There are three sources there that have him between 6' 2'' and 6' 4'', I'm good with that. At least to say he is no 6'.

Yeah you usually have to knock off 2 inches and maybe 15 pounds from what is officially listed by anyone.

I wish I visited this site more, because I would have posted this earlier.

Anywho... I talked to Marlon the other day (Saturday), and I actually asked him that question. He told me he was at about 265 lbs. He is on a weight program to gain more and more. On a side note... you should see Montorio Hughes. He is at 305 lbs., and doesn't look like he has an once of fat on him. He is a beast.

6'1 and 290, with how lean his stomach is, would place him into professional boldy building size ... roid rage size. Batista is 6 foor something and 290. 290 is not a weight easily achieved while being that lean. I am not saying his is not huge, he looks very big, but 290 and cut is just not very normal ... ok, it's not even possible. Just for an image. Lesnar is 6'3 and weighs 265 walking around.

Big big biiiiiiiiggggggggggggggggg boy.

Hih won't let mew upload pic. Anyways, 290 and 6 '3 or under is Bane from Batman size.

I would be willing to bet between 250-265. He's in much better shape than last year, but not nearly as heavy, from what I have heard.

Lesnar is not 265. I've seen interviews with him where he talks about being closer to 290. That said, I agree with your point. Being 6'1-6'2 and getting to 290 requires a ridiculous amount of size packed onto your frame. Walls definitely looks more like 260-270 and I'd be willing to bet he never gets above 280-285. Luckily, a 280lb DT that is solid muscle and very quick can do some serious damage to an OL.

And if we ever transition to basing out of a 3-4 then Walls at 265-270 of mostly muscle would be the perfect DE for that...think Marcell Dareus from Bama
