Jarrod Polson height - How tall is Jarrod Polson?

In his junior season, Polson suddenly found himself in the rotation after a break-out performance in the season opening game against the Maryland Terrapins on November 9, 2012. Coach Calipari subbed Polson in for Ryan Harrow, whose play was greatly hindered due to flu-like symptoms. Polson successfully handled the pressure and finished the game with 10 points, 2 rebounds (both offensive rebounds), 3 assists, 1 steal, and 0 turnovers. The one steal was off of a missed free throw by Nerlens Noel, which was rebounded by Terrapins guard Pe'Shon Howard. Maryland head coach Mark Turgeon later called Polson's steal and acrobatic layup the "play of the game." In the final seconds of the game, Polson extended Kentucky's lead from 1 to 3 points by sinking two free throws. Dick Vitale commented that Polson was "the MVP for Kentucky" in that game, and Turgeon said that Polson was "the key" to Kentucky's victory. Since that game, Polson has seen solid minutes off the bench for Kentucky, including a start in a losing effort against Tennessee on February 16, 2013 (Kentucky's first game without Nerlens Noel, who suffered an ACL tear the previous game against Florida).
