@Viper: I always thought he was listed 6’3”. That’s what I would’ve guessed him as. Maybe he was hair over 6’3 but 6’4 looked too much

@Viper: I saw Manley as a kid and he didn’t look as tall as my dad who was a legit 6’4 (still around 6’3 1/2”ish today maybe a bit less)

@Viper: He def looks like he’s 6’1-6’2 physically. Maybe he was 6’1 5/8 or 1/2 at his low?

I think to be totally fair he should be listed 6-1.5 when you have that
6-1 3/8 listing in the archives

@Editor Rob: perhaps it’s half inch. He would likely be 6’1.5 neighborhood

@Rob: Viper has a point. Dickerson May be further over and camera influencing it but Dickerson is taller than Allen. If Eric Dickerson is 6’2” Allen isn’t 6’2”. 6’1 3/8 could be his low

Editor RobWhilst Eric can look taller, it is tricky to say how much height he might gain being a bit nearer.

Are you going to put that down for his height. I figure that's his low

Editor RobI wouldn't have guessed him that low, I could see 6ft 1 7/8ths as more likely, though 6ft 1 3/8th could have been from college.

Rob, then why is he listed this low?

Editor Robthe 7/8ths matches up with 6ft 2, but 6ft 1 3/8th?
I would be surprised at that mark.

Editor RobThat would be a surprising measurement, because generally this guy looks taller than a weak 6ft 2!

Looks a bit shorter than 6-2ish Eddie George in that TV series Rookie commercial.

What's impressive is he wears converse shoes a lot, and still can look taller than this

Rob , this is worst for Will Smith as Alfonso always looked shorter next to him.

Editor RobTrue, this guy can look over 6ft 2 regularly in fact, which is suprising if he measured the same range as Andy Murray.
I suppose they are height twins, in the sense they can look taller than their listings, while Will Smith can look shorter than his.
