Another indictment of Omer's strength program

ManicBlue

Feb 26, 07:38pm

Or an indictment of Reynolds work ethic? Or maybe

BYUfan92

Feb 26, 07:41pm

Robert Turbin did more reps than Reynolds... (nm)

DakotaCoug

Feb 26, 07:45pm

The top ranked OL did 11 fewer reps than the top guy

BYUfan92

Feb 26, 08:02pm

Obviously he's neither of those but...

DakotaCoug

Feb 26, 08:05pm

We can talk about Hoff being a first rd pick in a few years

BYUfan92

Feb 26, 08:10pm

anyone remember Mike Mamula? (nm)

icecougar

Feb 27, 01:11am

Oh and by the way, All Pro OL Ryan Clady did 24 reps

BYUfan92

Feb 26, 08:04pm

but did he also have a slow 40 time too ? (nm)

ManicBlue

Feb 26, 08:12pm

Yes 5.2 (nm)

BYUfan92

Feb 26, 08:23pm

Again I will point that Matt's 40 time...

I disagree

ManicBlue

Feb 27, 10:11am

Yep def. Manic (nm)

MatthiasG

Feb 27, 12:55pm

So you disagree with my opinion that

ManicBlue

Feb 27, 01:02pm

Lou Ferrigno told me it's the best he's ever seen (nm)

MatthiasG

Feb 27, 02:15pm

Are you sure he understood the question ? (short)

ManicBlue

Feb 27, 02:24pm

Good point. Prolly not. (nm)

MatthiasG

Feb 27, 02:33pm

As far as the bench press goes they have, I was clear....

Mar 1, 12:10pm

I say PED? (nm)

coastcat

Feb 27, 08:57am

the utes had a player a couple years ago who had 15 reps

Level43

Feb 26, 07:49pm

I think Bright did 34 or something (nm)

DakotaCoug

Feb 26, 07:52pm

the guy I'm referring to played for the Eagles (nm)

You want Omer to starting putting our OLinemen through 40 (short)

darkcoug

Feb 26, 07:51pm

Absolutely.

cavemen77

Feb 26, 07:56pm

Because of slow 40 times?

darkcoug

Feb 26, 07:57pm

Because Our Linemen are Generally Fat

cavemen77

Feb 26, 07:59pm

I'm not arguing that I wouldn't like to see less body fat on

darkcoug

Feb 26, 08:03pm

I Can Think of A Lot

cavemen77

Feb 26, 08:01pm

FYI Matt Reynolds is 302 pounds, and is considered "light" (short)

BYUfan92

Feb 26, 08:13pm

pretty slow for being 'light' then (nm)

ManicBlue

Feb 26, 08:19pm

And yet still faster than a definite 1st rounder in Decastro

BYUfan92

Feb 26, 08:25pm

Again that time is just fine for a 300 pound man....

Feb 26, 09:55pm

And also has one of the biggest guts out of the linemen... (nm)

It couldn't be that Texas gets better athletes, could it? (nm)

Feb 26, 08:44pm

If you think that OL's should be doing training...

Feb 26, 09:57pm

it's why they call it the STRENGTH and CONDITIONING program

ManicBlue

Feb 26, 08:15pm

Fangupo is #2 for DL. Reynolds is just lazy. (nm)
