Beastly Figures from Spring Conditioning

Check out this story from LSUsports.net on the spring conditioning program at LSU.

Some highlights:

Cornerback Patrick Peterson was hand-timed at 4.2 in the 40-yard dash, while fellow cornerbacks Ron Brooks (4.23), Drayton Calhoun (4.24) and Morris Claiborne (4.25) all went sub-4.3 in the hand-timed 40. Peterson also went 535 pounds in the squat, ranking second on the team along with Nevis.

40-Yard Dash (hand timed)
Patrick Peterson (CB) 4.20
Ron Brooks (CB) 4.23
Drayton Calhoun (DB) 4.24
Morris Claiborne (CB) 4.25
Chris Tolliver (WR) 4.33
Russell Shepard (WR) 4.36

Ever heard of a Cornerback having one of the top-five squat numbers on the team?

Also, Michael Ford: Bench-press, 425 pounds, Squat-press, 510 pounds, vertical jump 42 inches. Ye Gods...
