A Day In The Life Of Robert Sacre

The clock struck 10:50 a.m. and there was no sign of Robert Sacre. Our hopes of Rob attending his first class started to dwindle like a game clock in the fourth quarter. Then, spotted across the dimly lit hallway of College Hall, a head stood above all others. His grin still apparent from more than 50 yards away, the big man strolls down the hall in royal velour sweat pants, a beige and black waffle tee with a black felt coat, all size XXXX(etc)L. At 7-foot and 247 pounds, he blends in with the crowd about as well as the Sears Tower would if it was transported to Pullman, Wash. When he finally reaches us on the other end of the building, he smiles and says, “Today is going to be a long day boys, there’s no time for naps.” Thus begins a day in the life of Gonzaga’s larger than life center Rob Sacre/ Nate Garberich and Ian Potter , Gonzaga Bulletin.

Question: How would you like to go through life 7 feet tall? What do you consider the ideal height?
