Great rep by Leary and Jalen there on the corner route.
And perfect final rep on goal line jump ball with Nix. Def showed off the 42.5 vert

Did they not do the 3 cone and the shuttle today?
Edit: looks like they did, but times haven't been put up online yet

Jalen had a solid day and looking at the WR class its really competitive but he is in the mix. Excited for him!

Will CJ and Jalen be taking the Wonderlic Test? Looking for a 30+ there for both of these two Crusaders

They stopped using the WL test a couple years ago. Not sure if they use another measurement.

Reports are that many prospects from this class of wide receivers posted blazing times in the 40…..

Disappointed with the timing of the broadcast for Jalen so far. No commentary on him. Seems like there’s always something else they are talking about at the same time. I want some “big time player from a small school” discussion. I agree. Rich Eisen is such a self promoter. Interviewing the Vikings coach during Jalens workout. No mention of Jalen and how well he was doing, but Conkey and the other kid were stars. I don’t think Jalen dropped a pass. Coaches and scouts know what kind of player he’s going to be in the NFL. 42.5 vertical will get you lots of playing time on the goal line.

Do I have to draw a diagram? But here goes. Follow the $. NFL - Major Media - Big Time programs all tied together in a promotional scam to increase ratings & profits. No one should think the Combine is being televised for the advancement of sport. It's paid for media promotion of the NFL. Disappointment stems from unrealized expectations. There was no reason to expect anything other than the prearranged script to advertise the next big stars from big time programs. Whole purpose is to amp up NFL media interest & ratings. Also, big time media exposure helps in recruitment to big time schools for the NFL stars of tomorrow. Is there an unholy alliance of Media - the NFL & the Power 5? Does one really have to ask, let alone answer.? Let's get real.

It is an entertainment enterprise, with an added dimension of gambling

No one's signing an overhyped (and therefore, overpaid) player from Power5U over a player from FCSU. You have to be sick to watch this crap for more than a few minutes, only reason any of us did that is to sneak a peek at Jalen.

Right you are. Jerry Rice, from FCS Mississippi Valley State, was drafted in the first round by the 49ers.

1.76 10 yd split 5.00 40 yd time
Currently .01 down from the lead on the 40 amongst OL, which I believe he said he wanted to run the fastest.

In general I don't know one voice/ name from another, or replays from live events. But last night an announcer highly complimented Jalen and noted his great leaping catch and 42.5 vertical. He also mentioned his 40 speed. Nice to hear.

FWIW, they did spotlight Jalen at the end of the day when discussing the top performers, specifically how well he did with his jumps. There's a ton of airtime to fill along with commercials, I don't get too hung up on our guy getting skipped for a drill.
