Yes, agreed… definitely faster than most of you guys in your prime.

More importantly, tight ends are possession receivers. Not to say speed doesn’t help but that’s not nearly as important as using their mass, length and hands to create passing opportunities.

4.96 for those who don’t want to open article and search

I'm not surprised. The dude is slooow. He looked almost geriatric last year.

BlueFever

Mar 29, 10:48am

Which is why I never understood all the bubble screens to him. I never

NewBYUfannonLDS

That ties into Roderick's incompetence. It's really time for that guy to go.

BlueFever

Mar 29, 11:04am

So the before his injury, and he looked like a pro, who was calling the plays?

BYURider

Mar 29, 11:39am

So last year, which is more recent, Rex looked completely outclassed and

Roderick

BYURider

Mar 29, 11:49am

That's right. And now he needs to go. I'm ready for someone else. I think a lot

BlueFever

Wasn't Clark the coach that was trusted to develop and promote the best TE

Jizosh

Mar 29, 1:17pm

No. It's just a few of you. And you're wrong

MaxxPower

Take off your blinders!!

BYURider

Mar 29, 4:46pm

Nope

SUAVO

Mar 29, 6:11pm

Just a couple of years ago, he was brilliant. Everybody discounts the circumstances of BYU football over the last decade

Hammurabi

I’m not ready for him to go just ready for the mustache to go

Me as I see this while also seeing Dallin Holler’s success last season:

Your Royal Blueness

Mar 29, 12:59pm

Uhhhh......

kos

Mar 29, 2:43pm

4.57 was Puka Nakua's

cougardog

Mar 29, 3:43pm

And we coronated him over Dallin Holker. No wonder he couldn’t get open.

Adwight

Mar 29, 10:33am

what was Holker's time?

fulano

Mar 29, 10:33am

4.78 so almost 2 tenths faster

RE: what was Holker's time?

foofcoug

Mar 29, 10:35am

Would be fine if he was a blocking TE, but he definitely is not. I don't think

RH84025

Mar 29, 10:33am

He looked very slow last season.

JuicyJam

Mar 29, 10:37am

He was definitely faster before the injury

NewBYUfannonLDS

Mar 29, 10:41am

Not much, he has always been slower. He just had a lot of TDs against crap

RH84025

Mar 29, 11:08am

He was never speedy but I do believe he was slower after the ankle mess.

NewBYUfannonLDS

Mar 29, 11:11am

I'll admit I was wrong with Rex. I thought he was going to be the next Pitta but he pretty much regressed every year

letthewookieewin

Mar 29, 10:35am

Pretty major injury got in the way of that. Amazing he's returned to any form at all.

Soupie

Mar 29, 10:37am

The point still stands. He regressed every year and BYU let an NFL TE like Holker get away.

letthewookieewin

Mar 29, 10:41am

If only we could all be loved & worshiped the way Holker is by some on CB.... sigh.

Soupie

Mar 29, 10:49am

Holker is an NFL TE? That must be insider news.

coug10278

Mar 29, 11:03am

Arods obsession with him was weird. Seemed there were some politics involved

Reach

Mar 29, 10:38am

This is my gut feeling.

Don Carlton

Mar 29, 11:15am

I’m sure the regression of the O-line hasn’t helped.

Shawarma

Mar 29, 12:57pm

I'll give the guy a pass. He loves the Cougs and played hard for us. His leg

Twitch Chatter

Mar 29, 10:37am

It’s not great but 3 TEs were worse at B12 pro day and 6 better.

NewBYUfannonLDS

Mar 29, 10:38am

And yet, still about middle of the pack with those guys. Which is of course why they are all at the Big 12 pro day

mokelembembe

Mar 29, 10:40am

I believe Holker had slowest time at Combine for TEs with 4.78

NewBYUfannonLDS

Mar 29, 10:43am

I definitely had our receiving TE running 0.4 seconds slower than our immobile

DieHarder

Mar 29, 10:46am

Wonder how fast he was before his major injury

Dr T-bone

Mar 29, 10:57am

Probably low 4.9s. He was always slow.

RH84025

Mar 29, 11:09am

It was really soggy ground there, I bet everyone's time was slower than they

viper

Mar 29, 11:10am

Wasn’t it indoors?

A Drew Aitch

Mar 29, 12:06pm

I think a better description is that the floor is spongy.

NewBYUfannonLDS

Mar 29, 12:11pm

He looks like he is allergic to weight lifting

claw

Mar 29, 11:14am

He did 24 reps at the bench, which is fine.

JuicyJam

Mar 29, 11:38am

Everyone is so harsh. The dude was a baller who played through injuries and set

CougarScrub

Mar 29, 12:09pm

Yes, agreed… definitely faster than most of you guys in your prime.

SolidBlue

Yessir. I wish Isaac good luck. Hands and blocking are important.

In Typical fashion, Cougarboard trashes a great player who owns the Touchdown

Beetdiggercoug

Mar 29, 1:03pm

Sort of explains things.

ABN RGR

Mar 29, 1:59pm

More than half of the TE had same or worse. What’s the big deal? He’s meeting with the chargers today

Blue2thebone

Mar 29, 2:45pm

You know you can't trust those times at the pro days…

ochobeeguy

Mar 29, 3:06pm

That injury was horrific. He had to have been faster earlier

vabeachcoug

Mar 29, 4:01pm

All 40's should be run fully padded.

Cheese Head Cougar

Mar 29, 4:18pm

I don't see a problem with his time. He is a very big guy, a very good blocker,

84 natlchamps

Mar 29, 4:36pm

Gotta think that time would have been better w/o that horrific ankle injury.

Forzaitalia

Mar 29, 4:56pm

Several TE ran slower than him

JOPE

I hope the best for the Rex!
