Fans don't attend any of the big conferences in any city or own but they are still good for local economirs. There are fan activities and I can't imagine many would go if they could.

Like I asked, why woukd anyone not want it here?

The good thing about the combine is that you can compare athletes at the same position doing the same drills in the same place on the same surface at the same time. That can be valuable because there is no change in the testing conditions.
 
What do you do in the NFL combine?
 
Tests/evaluations include:
 
40-yard dash.
 
Bench press (225 lb repetitions)
 
Vertical jump.
 
Broad jump.
 
20-yard shuttle.
 
3 cone drill.
 
60-yard shuttle.
 
Position-specific drills.

What was your point?

It took over 7000 posts but you finally made one that was above an IQ of about 60. Congrats!

I think the new practice facility in SC would make the most sense to host the combine. But the draft being held in uptown sounds like a fantastic idea and a great way to show off the city.

It would actually be a pretty big boost for Rock Hill.  Getting your small cities name in hundreds/thousands of by-lines only helps (I mean unless you are beating black people at a gas station).  Plus there would be be hundreds of rooms booked down there.  I am sure press will be allowed back next year.  

I am sure they will bid on for 2024+

We know they have already bid on the draft and I am sure Roger is eventually throw a bone to his richest owner.

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best

      2024 College Football Thread

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
