Okay, so, I was messing around online the other day, trying to figure out something about that Purdue basketball coach, Matt Painter. You know, the guy who’s always leading the Boilermakers? I was curious about his height – don’t ask me why, I just get random thoughts like that sometimes.
So, first, I just googled “Matt Painter height” to see what would pop up. I got a bunch of different websites and articles, you know how it is. I started clicking through a few, and it wasn’t as straightforward as I thought it would be!
I learned a bit about the guy’s background, like he was born in Fort Wayne, Indiana, back in 1970, and that he used to play basketball for Purdue himself, from ’89 to ’93. He’s been the head coach there since 2005, which is a pretty long time.
Some sites focused on his coaching career and his family – he’s married to Sherry, with three kids, Maggie, Brayden, and Wyatt. But I was on a mission to find his height.
- I saw that one of his players, Zach Edey, is super tall, like 7’4″! It made me even more curious about how tall Painter is in comparison.
- There was also another player, William Berg, who’s also really tall, 7’2″.
Finally, after digging around a bit more, I found what I was looking for. Most sources seem to agree that Matt Painter’s height is around 6’4″ (which is about 193cm). It’s not like, NBA player tall, but he’s definitely not short!
So, yeah, that’s my little adventure in finding out Matt Painter’s height. It took a bit of searching, but I got there in the end. It’s funny the things you end up researching online, right?
