UMass' Pro Day


UMass recently had its Pro-Day workouts. A number of UMass players were tested including Steve Baylark, James Ihedigbo, Brandon Smith, Brandon London and Christian Koegel.

The NFL news report is here. The Boston Globe has a non UMass-Centric article here .

Interestingly, UMass punter was second on the team in NFL bench press reps; he was second to only 6-2 310 pd OL David Thompson. Koegel later exceeded nine feet in the broad jump in a FL workout.

The NFL bench press is 225 pds. The record is 45 reps by Mike Kudla of Ohio State.
