Sonny Styles may have test well athletically at the combine, but who ran his *** over in the CFP? I believe Reese got pancaked several times during that game as well

Ohio St are the kings of the underwear olympics. put the tape on of Reese and Styles playing against Miami. Styles and Reese played that game on roller skates.

Why aren’t our guys competing in drills?

Several reasons, one being it elevates exposure on campus for pro day. Another part of it is we didn't have great athletes last year. They were great football players. Playing late into January doesn't help with preparation time for the combine.

I get the long season, if guys were beat up, but our guys always used to compete.

Its not like before, everyone now does combine specific training geared specifically to improve test numbers. They are hyper focused on the workouts + nutrition leading up to the combine and most have been in these programs for about 8 weeks.

Our guys went through a tremendously long season so not only were their bodes beat up but they did not have enough time to property train/prepare for the this event. They would not be at their peak performance but their results would be compared against others who are. To "compete" right now would be a terrible business decision based on silly pride.

Get your body to peak possible performance levels and show off at pro day is the correct decision.

Dam nn the guys I thought Would run a fast 40 for Miami are not even running the 40 like Jakobe Thomas and Keionte smh

Impressive group of young men we've developed, huh?

100% night and day from the recent past, these dudes will all be legendary. A new pipeline and the publicity they are giving the U will help big time.

It's the right move. They didn't have enough time to prepare. I get that some of the Taint kids are running. But that game was December 31st. The championship game was January 19th, three weeks later. Our boys will get all the looks they need at Pro Day.

When is that last time any of our guys have competed 4 weeks after their last game?

Part of the beauty of going deep into the playoffs is you get the opportunity to put tape on against the best teams and if your teams wins that bumps them up higher than just about any agility, running, or strength drill can do.

It's smarter for guys like Jakobe to not to run the 40 without a lot of prep.

Unless you're an absolute sleeper burner type guy that runs a .25 faster than expected there's not a whole lot of benefit to running it.

Was it ever mentioned Mario had Tom Brady come speak to team last year? Didnt know that, pretty cool..

Jakobe had a rough day today catching the ball. You could tell he was pressing. Hopefully he's more relaxed at his pro day. He's going to be a steal for somebody.

 

[cway313]

He had a rough day overall.

Keeping it 100; he had a rough day. I appreciate him fighting through it, though.
