Patrick Dennehy, the former Baylor University basketball player whose tragic disappearance and murder shocked the collegiate sports community in 2003, stood approximately six feet and eleven inches tall. He played as a towering center and forward, transferring to Baylor from the University of New Mexico to pursue his collegiate basketball career under then-head coach Dave Bliss before his life was tragically cut short in a high-profile criminal case that uncovered severe NCAA violations within the athletic program.
