4.61 on his second run.

Orwin looks solid. 4.51 and then 4.5 flat.
Isn't it odd that he never looked that fast in school? Except since he finished, we have not had anywhere near the success with the rocket toss. Good, but not Orwin great every time.

JHD was just hanging out, but I think he said he's now up to 298 lbs and it's all muscle.
As they say, interesting if true, and if true and if eligible, I am trying to picture him and Gotsis together up front. Mayhem.

Here we go again... Any guesses as to who they could be? Really hope it isn't JHD...

No one that significant.

1 has been dismissed
1 is likely leaving as he has graduated

Names that we've discussed leaving before.

I especially enjoyed the Shaq drills. The pass blocking drills were about what you would expect, but one of the run blocking drills made the guy holding the blocking bag look like a dawg linebacker....he got drove back 15 yards and then put on his back. My wife got up from the rocking chair to watch that. Great job from Shaq.

Have to give all those guys tons of credit. They've continued working their butts off after the season and it showed today. I wouldn't be surprised to see all these guys land in a pro camp, one way or another. Someone is going to get a steal in Shaq late in the draft. Laskey and Days both were impressive. I really hate that Smelter got hurt.

Hope some teams look hard at Days. I think he can be successful at tailback and fullback as well. His game reminds me a little of Jerome Bettis...who had a pretty successful career. I know Bettis ran a 4.48 at the combine but I've heard he never ran better than 4.7 as a Steeler. Not sure if that latter is true or not because I didn't think the pros ever ran 40s once in the league...maybe he did when the Steelers acquired him tho. Either way...SD can play and I think will have success at the next level.

The top 40 time at the combine was 4.98 for OL. Shaq's 4.89 would have put him with the fastest 40 time by far at the combine for OL. He would also have een a top performer on all the other tests and one rep short for the bench press . Many of his scores would have been in the top 5. Criminal that he wasn't invited to the combine.
