Wildcats Shine at Combine


I don't really have any solid opinions this week, so I'm just going to report what's been making news around here at ACU.This past week, ACU showed why they were a serious contender to take home the national title this year.

Former ACU standouts Johnny Knox and Bernard Scott were on the turf of Lucas Oil Stadium Sunday at the NFL Combine, and both turned in performances that should improve their chances at being drafted in April. Knox was especially impressive as he turned in one of the fastest 40-yard times ever, as he clocked in at a blistering 4.34 seconds. He was unofficially timed at 4.25 before it was adjusted to an official time of 4.34. The former Wildcat all-American wide receiver then put on a dazzling show in the receiving drills, dropping only a couple of balls. He was one of the players mentioned by cnnsi.com writer Tony Pauline as one of his top risers from Day 4 of the Combine.

This would cap what has been the most impressive season for the Wildcats in almost three decades.
