Gators Bringing 7’6″ Olivier Rioux On Visit

Florida will be bringing an interesting player onto campus for an official visit this weekend, and if you happen to see him around Gainesville–believe me, you’ll recognize him.

That’s because IMG Academy’s Olivier Rioux stands at, believe it or not, 7’6”. That’s at least what IMG Academy currently lists him at, though in some recent international competitions he has been listed at both 7’7” and 7’8”. 7’6” is the agreed upon height as of now at least, and it’s safe to say that if nothing else he isn’t any shorter than that which we can say with confidence, as he currently holds the Guiness World Record for “Tallest Teenager In The World.
