NFL Draft Combine

[Brad]

I believe linebackers and wide receivers work out on Sunday and Monday. It's been a couple days since I checked, so it might be Saturday/Sunday, but I'm pretty sure it's Sunday/Monday

Sunday, Feb. 22   Group 4 (QB, WR), Group 5 (QB, WR), Group 6 (RB)

Monday, Feb. 23 Group 7 (DL), Group 8 (DL), Group 9 (LB)

Only one Big East program has fewer than USF's two players -- that'd be Syracuse, with one. Cincinnati, fresh off a league title, leads the way with six, followed by Connecticut with four. Louisville, Pittsburgh, Rutgers and West Virginia all have three players each in Indianapolis.

Using the NFL.com database (which, oddly, didn't include Johnson), you also see that the Big East has the fewest combine participants of the six BCS conferences. The SEC has 46, the Big Ten has 39, Pac-10 has 38, ACC has 37 and Big 12 has 32. The next three most-represented leagues are Conference USA (14), the WAC (13), Mountain West (12). Then you see how much power is in the larger conferences -- after the MAC (6) and Southland (6), the rest of college football accounts for just 17 players.

By my math there are a little better than 3 per team from the Big East and under three from the Big 12 teams.  Raw numbers throw this off a little since we only have 8 teams.

keep in mind that the combine is only for players who have finished their senior year

Taurus was expected to do about 18, so I'm glad he was able to achieve that at the combine.

Tyrone should also be among the top performers in the BP for LB's. He should do about 30 reps. Last spring he did 27. In the summer, Tyrone broke the all-time USF LB record with a BP of 425 pounds. So, after working out for the combine, he's probably able to lift more and do even more reps.
