Notre Dame LB Jaylon Smith is shaped like a slice of pizza

Notre Dame LB Jaylon Smith is shaped like a slice of pizza...in a good way.



Ge Wang, owner of Chicago-based ESQ Clothing and Notre Dame grad, recently approached Jaylon Smith and Notre Dame OT Ronnie Stanley about making the top-prospect duo's suits for the upcoming NFL Draft.  He made the suits for free, asking only that the two soon-to-be millionaires consider his company for their future suit needs.

Good business sense and school spirit aside, one interesting tidbit that came out of this story was the revelation of Jaylon Smith's jaw-dropping measurements:

According to Wang, Smith wears a size 52 jacket and size 32 pants - take that in for a second.  That would mean - for those that aren't mathletes - that Smith's chest (around) is 20 inches larger than his waist.  So essentially, he's a slice of pizza - wide up top, skinny at the bottom.

What does this mean for Smith's draft stock? - I don't know; he's still contending with an injury that will prevent him from playing in the 2016 season.  

One thing I do know is that this wonderfully disproportionate young man won't be shopping at Men's Warehouse (or any other conventional menswear store) anytime soon.
