jmfb Posted February 10, 2013 Author Share Posted February 10, 2013 We're talking a pro agility drill? Edit: Realized my mistake. I saw agility and just instantly assumed it was a pro-agility drill. That is what we're talking about, right.. That makes absolutely no sense at all There isnt a "my high school billy bobs agility drill" matching up agains some other nebulous standard The pro agility drill is the standard- it's been the same forever Link to comment

That is what we're talking about, right.. That makes absolutely no sense at all There isnt a "my high school billy bobs agility drill" matching up agains some other nebulous standard The pro agility drill is the standard- it's been the same forever "Agility" is defined as the ability to move and change direction and position of the body quickly and effectively while under control. When first referencing "agility", and the times mentioned were 4.4-4.6, I assumed the poster was speaking about the 20-yard shuttle. The 20-yard shuttle, also simply called the short shuttle, is a test performed by athletes at the NFL Combine. It is primarily run to evaluate the quickness and change-of-direction ability of players. Comparing these two definitions, a 20 yard shuttle is indeed a measure of a player's agility. And, it just so happens, 4.4-4.6 would be a great 20-yard shuttle time. In fact, the article mentions several of the faster shuttle times, which happen to be 4.47 and 4.52, smack dab in the middle of what we have defined as our so-called ideal range. I wasn't questioning whether my high school's pro-agility was the same as the standard pro-agility. I was questioning what drill we were discussing. Anything else I can help you with? Link to comment

There is only 1 Pro Agility- just like a 40 yard dash is a 40 yard dash and the vertical jump is the vertical jump= STANDARD that almost ALL prospective DI athletes are measured for at 100s of combines all accross the USA If you had any clue as to what you were talking about- RECRUITING- you would know that- kind of like a first grader knowing his ABCs Ive been to 20+ of these including the last 3 Army All American Bowls- can I help you with anything Link to comment

I have no idea how those ratings are set, but I do know what a pro-agility run is Respond to my PM and get this sh#t out of the recruit's thread. It's annoying and no one else wants to see it. I'd assume 5.7 three star (Rivals) when initial rankings come out. Might earn the fourth after a solid senior season, but that's left to be seen. Link to comment
nebraskafaninwi Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 3.9 is realistic and is the top of what you will see from prospects. 4.1 is also elite and top rated. Once you get to the 4.4 range it is still top level, but many more people run a 4.4 than 4.1. 1 Link to comment

Sure you want agility, but you will take football players over agility a lot of the time. The NFL is different, there are only so many players and you take all the football players and take the best of them so specifics come more into factor. Link to comment
