Mavric Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 I would have liked to see more actual results but there's a decent run-down in the article. Jacobson, a 6-foot-9, 240-pound sophomore forward, scored the highest of any Nebraska men’s basketball player during last week’s Athletic Performance Index testing at the Hendricks Training Complex.His overall score of 1,664 points is significantly above average and is the team’s closest to the 1,800 threshold that Boyd Epley has said is considered exceptional, or that of All-America or perhaps professional status in any sport....Jacobson not only did that, he turned in the fastest 10-yard dash of anyone – a time of 1.71 that beat out sophomore guard Glynn Watson Jr., who ran a 1.73.Jacobson, who was recruited as a football tight end by some schools, also had the team’s highest standing vertical jump of 34 inches and the second-best time in the pro-agility run. Watson had an approach vertical jump (with steps) of 41 ½ inches, best on the team.Jacobson improved his bench press from 235 pounds to 275 pounds and also did 18 reps of 185 pounds.

NUance Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I love to see stuff like this. Wish they'd give us more testing results, in both basketball and football. Maybe even in volleyball too! : Quote Link to comment
