CornHOLIO Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Just looking at the combine testing results, I just don't know if anyone posting is running any 40 under 5.0. I mean, some of the QB's did not get under 5.0 and they are training year round. This. No one on Huskerboard is going to beat Rex Burkhead in a 40. Double this! I've been known to take a shortcut in the 40 Quote Link to comment
Lyons in the Sea of Red. Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 High school Player: Nebraskafaninwi Hometown: Menomonie, WI School: Menomonie Position: DT Height: 6-0 Weight: 217 (real body weight) 40 time: 4.67 (electronic) Max bench/225 reps: 330 max bench and no clue what the 225 reps would be. Offers: Drake, a couple of D2 schools in MN....interest from a couple North Dakota and North Dakota State (they were not that good back in my day). Note: Decided not to play at the next level as my heart was D1A or bust. Obviously was not good enough to garner attention at the D1A level and that was fine at the end of the day. Today Player: Nebraskafaninwi Hometown: Marshfield, WI School: none as I am already done with college Height: 6-0 Weight: 175ish a couple of years ago (real body weight) 40 time: maybe 4.9ish to 5.0ish these days since I have not trained for a 40 yard dash in over a decade. Max bench/225 rep: Still naturally strong as my entire family is, but I doubt I could do more than 300 these days...no clue how many reps of 225. Offers: Which is now an occupation...regional sales manager Damn bro, you havent trained for the 40 in over a decade and you could still run a 5 second 40? You must come from a naturally strong family that is naturally athletic. I bet your kids will be naturally born beasts also. Quote Link to comment
KJ. Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Height: 5'9 Weight: 130 Reps at 225: 0 Reps at 150: Still 0 Reps at 125: 2 ish 40 time: 5.4 Table tennis doesn't require you to be athletic so my dreams of winning a gold medal are safe despite the combine results. Quote Link to comment
carlfense Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Player: carlfense School: never again. Height: 6'1" Weight: 202lbs 40 time: 6.XX Max bench/225 rep: No idea but I can move dozens of 80lb bags of portland or seed corn and only be mildly laid up the next day . . . In my high school football career I made up for my lack of strength with a conspicuous lack of speed. Few colleges were interested in a 170lb tight end who ran a mid 5 second 40. 1 Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Rex Burkhead trained for 6 weeks straight just to run the 40, and he ran a 4.75. 6 weeks, with some super amazing trainers working with a guy that was already a highly decorated athlete. Just tossing that out there! Quote Link to comment
Walleye Hunting Husker Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Height: 6'1 Weight: 235 Reps at 225 in College : 10 40 in college: 5.2 Reps at 225 Today: 3 if I'm lucky 40 Yard Dash Today: 5.5 (to be honest I sprained my ankle playing pick up bball last wed so knapp might have a pretty good chance to beat me in a head to head race now) Played college football at a d3 school and my playing weight was 245 - 250. played on the OL the first 2 yrs as a center then switched to DL when we switched base defenses.
