Zero reps on the bench press? Seriously? Are you sure he even tried.
That's pathetic, if it's true.
he's tiny man. I don't know why he'd even try to bench. Someone up there have him some God awful terrible advice and should be fired immediately for tanking his stock like that. That's messed up to do to a kid.
That's what I thought too. If you know you can't get a single rep of 225, why even try? Why not opt just out of that part of the workout?Quote:

Enjoy working at the tire shop. The 225 is embarassing.
In other news: Construction on Ole Miss' new Confederate monument was halted when workers uncovered the remains of several highly recruited athletes careers.
I'm 100% sure that we have some people in the band that can do one rep at 225. Heck, my old ass could do that right now.
I hate to say this- but when I read that he did 0 reps, I laughed. I just have this image of a guy with all these reporters and people around and some trainer going- OK come on PUSH IT! That's.......doesn't count.
But there's something up with Ole Miss's S&C. Brassell can't do a rep. CJ is an overweight linebacker masquerading as an undersized DE. They had a couple of o-linemen listed at 370. Ward and Thompson haven't gained an ounce. No wonder they think our guys are on steroids. Unfortunately for them, the reality is we work out and their guys do something other than work out. Moncreif and Prewitt look like they work out- so I'm guessing that they have guys skipping out.
But hey, they got to use the four stars by his name twice and it helped them land Conner. In their twisted little heads they think it was all worth it. Never mind that Bassell's career was ruined.Quote:

I'll cut them slack for Brassell, since I don't think he's been working out with the team (I have no clue why he was at their pro day though).Quote:

Strength and conditioning in the offseason is much more about motivation and discipline than it is coaching- and with recent events coming to light in the past couple of months, I'm not sure discipline is a strong suit for a lot of players up there.
From the reports I'm getting there is very little discipline on the players. The points you make shows that and the recent off field incidents show that too.Quote:

0 reps 225? You can walk into any Snap Fitness and find guys that are working out with more than that. Jeebus.
Maybe he didn't bother to take the cigarette out of his left hand and only tried with one arm.
Fred Smoot only repped 225 one time.
yeah, but he covered everything water didn't.Quote:

Maybe we should refer to him as Snoop De Chump ?
I'm a white dude that had an opportunity to play defensive back at the likes of Millsaps and Rhodes. I guarantee I could have run better than 4.55 and benched 225 at least 3-4 times when I was a high school senior. Guaran-damn-teed. I thought Brassel was an athlete.
4.55 is fast. This is legit times. No bs scout times trying to get kids offers.
That said, 225 is weak. I can do that 12 times and Im 10 years past my prime.
We can all laugh that UM had another bust, but Brassell is a very good athlete. I saw him make many a splendid catch and kick return in Juco.
I'd would have loved it if he could have suited up for us and kept his head straight.
I was timed twice at 17, 4.55 and 4.59, and yes, it is fast. I probably could have gotten 3-5 reps of 225.
Brassell really screwed himself (besides signing with OM) when he signed with a cfl team to be on their practice squad. He was released shortly after signing, but still lost his amateur status by signing a pro contract. He and Singleton would have been a tough duo at WR for jsu.
4.55 is a solid time for a pro day, but I honestly thought it would be lower. He could fly, but may be one of those guys that is quicker than he is fast.
There is no excuse for anybody that has played D1, much less SEC football to not bench 225 a single time.
You're half way to JaDeveon Clowney status. Clowney benched 225 21 times. A punter benched more than Clowney.
The whole 40 time is dumb. Perkins got clocked at 4.4 and got caught all the time. Ballard never got caught
I dont get it
Strongest guy on our team 3 years ago? Aaron feld. Dont put all your stock into 40s or bench pressQuote:

Oh wow. I am 48 and can rep out 225 5x.
This speaks volumes about UOM weightLESS training program.
