Columbus Combine Results

[Philip Hay]

Does anyone have any information how the combine went in Columbus this past weekend?

 

I know that Mason County had some players participating and they did very well.

 

Any other schools have players participating?

If you are talking about the NUC combine, I was there. Frankly I was terribly disappointed in what I observed. Very, very disorganized. 40 times were done by hand, which means they were very inaccurate. Bench press techniques weren't rigorously enforced, with some kids doing a lot of bouncing. The fieldturf or whatever brand was in the room where the shuttles were done was in bad shape and a whole lot of the kids slipped a lot, thus messing up their times. I was there with the afternoon session which got started late and didn't end until after 6. They only had two bench presses set up and that event became a major log jam. The facility they used (the Sports Barn) is not laid out well at all. There is very little observation room and with a lot of parents and coaches there watching, it was sort of a mess.

 

My son did well, particularly as a frosh and particularly in light of the fact that Highlands had scrimmaged the day before. Nonetheless, we probably won't be going back next year.

yes from what I heard it was very disorganized.

It had been scheduled several times, and then ended up being at Oberlin College.

I talked to one kid that ended running the 40 three times, due to clock problems.

The combine my son attended, and was the one I was referring to, was the National Underclassmen Combine that was held on Saturday in the Sports Barn in Easton, Ohio (right outside of Columbus).

sorry I was referring to the Cleveland Combine- which is run by same people. It usually takes a couple of weeks to get the results. They typically will send you an email telling you the results are posted.

You went to the one that was this past weekend?

I was at the Columbus Nike Combine with the Mason County players and they all did good. There were a couple of things I didn't like. One was that I only saw a couple of older people who were trainers or coaches running the events. They were mostly kids, and the forty times were all over the place as the day dragged on. Also it didn't mean anything to pre-register for the event. It was a free-for all in that walk ups could go in and test before athletes who were pre-registered. It caused complications. I mean waiting 2 hours in line to test and then down time in between it is hard to get in a flow while testing.

Jackson Tolle was a standout at linebacker for mason county with a Sparq Rating of 72.78. Which if you go to the Nike site and check out the rest of the countries participants puts him at about 16th for linebackers out of 14 combines completed. There are 3 more left.

Richie Cox who is the QB for Mason County had a Sparq Rating of 77.78 based on QB ratings. If you go to Nike and see the results of the 14 combines that puts him around 4th for QBs so far. With 3 more events left.

Good job by all the Royals.:ylsuper:

I was there and we used the sparqulator on the site to figure out the ratings. They are behind in listing the scores on sparqtraining.com. If you go to football then click the events tab all the combines will pop up and the ones that have a results tab will show all results for that combine. The other combine sites will show the top ten sparq ratings for that combine until they get all results in. Hope that helps.:thumb:
