Farmer is killing it! I attribute it to wrestling of course!
Husker Pro Day Results and Discussion
- Thread starter Cloud@Heart
- Start date
Farmer could be a steal. Ozigbo will be a steal.
Seemingly another in a line of O lineman who have pro talent but who have average careers at NU
Hopefully we're ready to put those days behind us.
Right. Farmer should have been a top 30 OL. Failed to help him develop.
Farmer is a sleeper at Guard in the NFL and he can play center, he'll find a home.
So happy for this kid!
So happy for this kid!
How come no one has posted how they do more reps than these guys and how their HS team had 5 guys that all did over 39 reps...at a Class C school.
Farmer has NFL center written all over him. Somebody is going to get an athletic guy with a great motor.
Nice nice nice 40. If he does the shuttle and cone drills well he's going to get drafted.
At the least, he's a great bench player who can play the G position and Center as well. Versatility is handy with limited NFL roster sizes.
I put up 135 a few days ago. Plates!
Hahaha! No shit!
Do they have like students holding the watches too? Is this like HS PE class?
One year, we had to run the mile but it was cold out so our PE teacher just let us run one lap and multiply it by 4!
Who said it was hand held? That said, most scouts want a watch in their hand to give a fair comparison to what they get at other pro days.
lol that's probably about where I am. I haven't been in a gym since January. "Beach time is over? Ok, I'll think about looking better again when it warms up in the spring..."
I just started back up again...those first 10 days might as well have been a scene from Hellraiser.
Because some of our schools dropped to Class D since graduating 35+ years, and it didn't look like you wanted testimony from that level.....
Because my school never counted "reps" you did it until your arms fell off, then a local mechanic would weld them back on. We also broad jumped the Platte River but never bothered to measure the length. People today are so concerned with numbers, back then we just out "hustled" and out "heart-ed" the Bo Jacksons of the world, but being at a class C school no one ever thought of going pro, too much responsibility on the home front.
A friend just told me the results dean posted and it said hand held. Maybe that was his own times and not official. Would've thought an electric time was posted for everyone to see.
Of course they do...they have to justify their jobs.
If GMs found out that you could just watch college football games on Saturday and talk to college coaches to get the info you really needed there would be about 900 NFL scouts out of a job.
When someone (HBK4life) posts up all the videos the first one I watch is Frost, second Held and third Mo Barry. Mo exudes focus and professionalism. P.S. I watch Austin 4th. I like his philosophy that despite all the schemes, hype, analytics, etc. it boils down to either you kick someone's butt or he kicks yours.
All the line movement they do is nuts.
Story time: Years ago this coaching staff I was on had a good laugh. One of our guards was really good but a moron, could not remember his rules to save his life. During film one day we realize that on plays when the other guard was pulling, our moron guard was pulling too...the opposite way.
We could not stop laughing at this kid but then we realized how ****ing hard it had to be for the DC's of teams we faced to even bother trying to read our OG's, because it really made no sense.
I wonder what college DC's do today, they can't read guards anymore and trying to read HB's would be a nightmare. I would imagine they basically go back to freshmen football where you either read the back nearest you or you don't read but just take your attack steps and diagnose what you see.
OZ is a great situational RB. He needs to play special teams to make a NFL roster, IMO. If he's willing to do that, I think he has a shot.
Great kid too. OZ had a special Sr. season and deserves the accolades.
That's a good time for OZ, IMO. He is "sneaky" fast and his speed is improving. The Michigan ILB ran him down like mud but that guy is the best in the country at his position.
I hope OZ finds a place where they can utilize his talents.
Tied for best bench reps and broad jump #1, at the combine, overall and for all OL.
My Lord.
Farmer showed-out, I just realized, Yuuuggeee!!!
Sounds like a Patriot to me. Big value pick. Belichick likes Huskers too.
So word is both Gifford and Young benched more than Jerald Foster?
WTH?
The solid pro day performance from some of these guys also seems to be one more indicator Duval and Co. were busy in the rough trying to polish some diamonds in the limited time.
