Two thoughts:
1. Who is this Phalen Sanford showing up in multiple testing Top 10s?
2. Noa Pola-Gates is skinny

This is one that I love...followed by the pro-agility and vertical jump.
40 yard dash...not so much.

Also love seeing Tagge on there. If he doesn't end up being a dude somewhere on defense before he leaves, I'll be very surprised.
I wonder how the timing has changed on timing system for these. Found these olds position records in some of my HuskerPower newsletters I used to get.

Epley went to electronic timing in 1982 after working with Nebraska engineer Dr Mike Reilly (old Huskerpower newsletter). You used to have a large pad to place your fingers on and once the pressure released the timing would start meaning you could step forward before releasing your hand. Am guessing the tech is more accurate these days with advances in technology. Was impossible to get 10 yard time prior to electronic timing.
Yeah I used the pad your talking about when I ran in my Sr year of high school. Ran a 1.58
Phalen Sanford is the guy who will likely be the first one down the field on kick offs this fall. We've got a couple of walk ons who are gonna be dudes for us on defense I think before they're all done. Bullock is another even though he's still listed as a WR on Huskers.com.
I know the joke on here but I legitimately did that. I can't show you proof unless you go to the Bergan weight room.
Dr. Mike should have spent more time focusing on winning games and less time on sprints and sprinkles.
Probably not. You're not supposed to be around high school kids anymore after the court cases.
That Sanford kid played pretty well in the Spring Game and is crazy athletic. Will be interesting to see how he progresses.
More like SUCCEEDIN Sanford am I right??
Clearly Sanford and Martin are crazy athletic all around, it's fun stuff to look at and great motivation for the players to want to work in their S&C time to get their name on those lists.
To be a successful program you need a lot of dudes who are special athletically. On top of that they need to be football smart. On top of THAT they need elite coaching. It's nice to at least see that a foundation is getting into place.
My curiosity is how Smothers' 10 yd time compares to Taylor Martinez.

I’m seeing a trend in these testing results. The handful of players making most of the Top 10 lists have something in common, they play defense. Thankfully we have a newcomer in Oliver Martin to save the offense from being even more underrepresented.
