For those unaware, watch the combine online (free) here:

If the link doesn't work, retry a few times. It took me about 4 tries to get in.

Charles with a 4.39 to follow the 4.36. He has an awkward start that costs him... imo.

Mike Hart slower in his second attempt... falls behind MSU's power back

4.65 - Caulcrick, MSU
4.67 - Hart, UM (28" vert)

 

[jwinslow]

In track spikes, WVU was considerably faster than UM at every skill position.

Mike Hart slower in his second attempt... falls behind MSU's power back

He should've rode his bike in the 40

McFadden with a "pedestrian" 4.33 in his 2nd 40... wow

[quote='BusNative;110003;6]McFadden with a "pedestrian" 4.33 in his 2nd 40... wow[/quote]He seemed to tail off just slightly at the end... remarkable speed.

 

[PlanetFrnd]

Mendenhall looking good again with a 4.37 on his 2nd run

 

[jwinslow]

4.37 for Mendenhall at 225! Northern speed baby!

 

[Bucks21]

4.37 for Mendenhall at 225! Northern speed baby!

Just think how fast he could be if he played for an SEC team!

 

[MD Buckeye]

Just think how fast he could be if he played for an SEC team!

He would've ran a 2.185

 

[jwinslow]

Slaton 4.44/4.45. Ok... not going ot help him overcome the fragile tag.

 

[PlanetFrnd]

Slaton 4.44/4.45 in his 40's

I think he could have benefitted from more 40 coaching... his starts weren't great.

Except for our old friend Bikey.

McFadden is a freak.
