Is this serious?>

10 has to be some kind of record for a lineman doesnt it?
Is he injured in some way- this cant be what an OFFENSIVE LINEMAN from NEBRASKA can do healthy?

And all the people were laughing at those of us that talked about how weak and unathletic our linemen looked'
Maybe we were right- looks like it

As a 183 lb RB age 19- I would do 8 with 2 plates as a warm up on heavy days- 225
When I was 40 181 lbs- could still do 6
That is so lame if it is really true

He will have recievers who weigh 100 lbs less than him do double his reps

That is seriously awful for a guy his size. People were shitting on McCafferey for only doing 10 last year and he's an RB!

Maybe I was looking in the wrong spot but on the NFL combine site ilooked at it said he did 20.
Not doubting you at all but do you have a link or where to find what you found?

Thanks.

Nick Gates put up 20, here’s the link:http://www.nfl.com/combine/tracker#day=friday
If anyone cares the two Iowa OL are right next to him results wise at 20 & 21 reps apiece (Welsh, Daniels respectively)
For what it’s worth those Iowa guys have higher draft ratings than Gates. I’d say he did his part on the bench. In the end, he’d be lucky to be drafted IMO or invited as a free agent to a camp.
The worst bench result of the day was Oklahoma’s Orlando Brown with 14 reps

Good grief. Someone on RSS wrote about it and I went to his combine profile to verify it and could swear it did say 10. Oh well. Nobody's perfect. My bad.
One here is perfect. And if he is not, it was that damn Mike Riley's fault. The same ones calling you out are the ones that keep up the BS "the team didn't squat" crap.

Long arms = tougher to do more bench reps. Isn't this true?

BS. I didn't call the moderator out and kind of found humor in the thread and his willingness to own it. Just seems like you have to turn this into a thread about other posters bitching and somehow relate it to your agenda.

Hey stud, I was not referring to you. But it is hilarious you thought I was. I mean, wow! That is awesome you think so highly of yourself. Have another cancer log, and calm down!
You included me when you referenced the people calling out the squatting issue which made me guilty by association. And I was not guilty. By the way my name isn't stud. The board kindly asks that you refrain from your normal name calling to distract from your lack of topic matter expertise.

Lol. Name calling? Are you that touchy cigar boy? Seriously, are you 12?
You were wrong, are wrong, and every time you parrot "they didn't squat", you prove it. Time to grow up and get over yourself.
