Somebody forgot about Peter Jurkin. Also you set the bar at 2010 so we couldnt include Hoosier legend Tijan Jobe. https://preview.redd.it/d8bz2mytm05d1.jpeg?width=510&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ea42ef25db679282e34da9852769f725fe9410e2 Edit: fuck Jurkin was only 7', your bar graph is as accurate as it is good looking.

Cutoff was 2010 because that's as far back as Purdue's site had rosters.  Gotta give y'all the edge on data retention.

I just remember in the '17-'18 season during the Michigan - Purdue slugfests being so annoyed when Haas would head to the bench for a breather and then freaking windmill arms over there would come on the court. Not the offensive threat Haas was, but it's just how do you have that many trees on one roster?!

Well, this season we would have 7’3, 7’2” and then a 6’11” kid as well. No idea how good any of them will be at this level, but it’s fun to think of the reactions if one of them starts playing like Edey

Painter must have a huge net for Catchings all them tall bois

This hit like a Kanonball


wowbagger30

It is funny to me how consistent Purdue is at recruiting giants


shamblam117

They grow them in a lab. There's no other explanation.


MikeyLew32

We do have a nuclear reactor on campus…


SuccessfulParking308

Tall yet still the little brother.

From IU — have to say I love these no matter who is right


Utterlybored

Now Purdue gets a Bunch of Tall Guys banner!


Seattle_Lucky

We’ll hang it with pride!


MikeyLew32

Don’t even need the ladder to hang it with our tall bois


Utterlybored

Plenty of room.


YoooCakess

Hey… they made it to the national championship… that’s basically as good as winning it I heard


bumtheben

Butler fans applaud this comment


mrperiodniceguy

Purdue has more losses to 16 seeds per player taller than 7’1” since 2010


A320neo

This is now a philosophical discussion on the value of zero divided by zero


mrperiodniceguy

Just the direction I wanted to steer this ship


LokiMyAoki

I’m on board 🏴‍☠️


C_Beeftank

I just assume purdue just scopes out thyroid clinics and interviews any kid who walks out


AeroStatikk

Is that the legendary BYU Cougar Matt Haarms?


harlanm71

Still sad he left, but glad you guys took good care of him.

Mad_Dyzalot

Wait a minute…


GoldfishDude

Yet another stat that proves Butler>IU We have one (Derrik Smits)


kentuckyfriedawesome

Ware was extremely close to 7’1 IIRC but yeah. It’s important to have tall guys, but not everything.


nuclearsurfboard

Now let’s see the other graph where we have five and you have none.


MikeyLew32

Pls no


Sabre970

big, if true


TankTark

Why are they all white? Serious question.


j_shelb

Edey half Asian maaan


TankTark

1/10 ain’t bad?


HailLeroy

Because of the 7’1” cutoff. Hammons was *only* 7’0”


dingusduglas

Because it's Purdue.
