UFFL Rookie Combine 2016

==UFFL ROOKIE COMBINE 2016==
Los Angeles, California (July 5-8, 2016) 
In preparation for the UFFL Draft, the California Dons organization offered to host the 2nd annual UFFL Rookie Combine at the Scorpion's Dome training facilities, which recently completed construction 11 months ago. The Dons contribute their state-of-the-art workout facilities, Animalympic-size swimming pool, and the Ron Portman indoor practice building, where most sports analysts and reporters will offer their analyses of the events.
The Combine was delayed by two months, due to low attendance in 2015, however this was not the case for L.A.! The best and brightest of our football futures descended upon the city, ready to give it their all. The beautiful, sunny weather and warm heat did not effect the performances of the athletes, as it was an indoor event.

===Testimonials===
(in no particular order):
Yuda Prajurit : One thing that should be stated about this guy is... Can he ever tire? One thing noticed was he never seemed to get to E or even near it. His motor is unbelieveable, couple that with his Balance of speed and power and high-field IQ. It's hard to see this guy not going quick.
Steven Selvanis : "It made for a fun, but mind-widening experience, to be able to compare oneself to the other rookies, the competition ... but always more ways to improve."
J.J. Brockman : I think I did well for an old guy! I don't know how I could go better.
Christian Wright : Wright scored a top-of-the-class time on the 40, and also had one of the highest vertical jumps for a quarterback. His broad jump was average, and the less said about his 3-cone, the better. And why do they make bird quarterbacks bench 255 lbs anyway?
"Jumbo" Miller: Miller impresed at the 40-yd Dash, Bench Press, and Broad Jump, delivering some of the best performances among defensive linesfurs. His Vertical Jump was average, and he was notably behind the pack when it came to the Three-Cone Drill.
Mike Moretti: The badger impressed scouts and reporters with his speed and agility, placing in the Top 5 for the agile events. He will be put on the chopping block later unless he works to improve his endurance, as 19 bench presses was below other members of the running back crew of 2016.
Maurice Cyr : Maurice Cyr has shown the asset in being a swift Defensive linemen with some strength to him, but would likely need a little more nurturing and patience from a team to develop him and see the full potential he could provide, should a team allow themselves to hold onto him.
Vito Ligustica : Vito thought he could do better, but who doesn't expect to blow themselves out of the water? He spent a lot of time having fun, and even more time on the phone with his mom who was back in New York watching the combine trials on the TVs in her deli. He reassured her he was having a great time, and he wasn't going hungry.
Chi Lim : Lim had a pretty lackluster combine, only really excelling in the 40. His jumps were both above average but not top-of-the-line, and he was dead-butt last in the three-cone for safeties.
Jesse Oahu : While being on the short side, Jesse has been a huge surprise during the combine in term on how she in a incredible shape. One of the fastest 40 yard dash in the combine, as well as impressive Vertical and broad jump and for her short stature, makes the feat even more impressive. She a real dynamo in the making as a wide receiver that could cause problem against less agile pass defense, especially on short passes plays.
Jeremy Ross : Piece of cake! I'll be seeing you at the Draft!
Travis Lockhart: He was focused and determined, keeping himself focused.
Tyrell Hutchinson : The Hyena scored an impressive bench score and shown some great physical attributes. He could be well groomed into a keep component in an offensive line to help creating the holes necessary for the RB and keep the run defense at bay.
Micheal Barnaby: "I think I should of done a little better of a job preparing for the Dash. I stumbled out of the gate by the looks. Didn't stop me from definitely crushing it in later events."
Sandra Wheeler : *pant *pant* I hope I did alright! *pant* *pant* I'm going to go lie down and have some food.
Carrice Kenton : Carrice Kenton!! Instead of Slow Motion this kid should be renamed the comeback kid... He missed the draft last year but that seems to not have shaken him much at all putting on an Amazing show today. In an interview I got with him he couldn't stop stressing how determined and ready he was to take the UFFL by storm. But we all know that's no easy task. But with the fire in his eyes I can see he truly means it.
Frédéric Chartier : The Canadian Falcon stood out in the combine by having impressive speed and a good bench press score. These results shows that he can be a swift and hard hitting DE that can compliment well a strong defenses, with strong tackles and many turnovers opportunities to capitalize on.
Lezra Astrah : Lezra the Ra Ah Monsta, Big Lez, puts on a great show as expected. It seems he has been working on his speed for this combine, his legs are looking a lot bulkier than before and with that comes the expected loss in his strength. Only pulling off 15 reps when he used to be able to easily manage 20 in the allotted time. Hopefully this is a good thing with him being faster and more agile.
Ricky Wit-Ricky : Ricky's night out into town before the combine is a moment he'll remember for the rest of his life, mostly because he'll wonder what he'd have been like if he were more responsible and stayed in. He, by no means, did poor in any category and he clearly showed his biggest strength - his athleticism and speed.
Drew Coleman : He seemed to be pretty prepared, but very confident about going to the combine. He was real serious about this, no partying and no eating junk food either. Really wanted to show the scouts and other players he can be a legitimate UFFL player.
Keanu Treonday : Keanu has had a rather subpar combine, not having significant impressive results especially on the bench press, which a guy being on the offensive line, are expected to have a good score. Non the less, another issue could be his problem of attitude and focus, which could be a problem while transferring to the UFFL. Still, Treonday shows to be a good work in progress.
Kai Koa : While being slightly nervous about the Combine as a whole, I felt like I did a fairly good job. Looking forward to showing off my arm and throwing skills in other drills coming up in the combine. While part of me regrets going out with the guys, I needed to focus on the Combine and not get myself in trouble going out.
Raleigh Cooper : Raleigh Cooper, a racoon from chilly Anchorage Alaska, showed us today that cold does make a good athlete. The Raccoons stamina and Agility were impressive as was his 4.92 time on the 40-yard dash and also his 17 reps. All in all I'd say this young Raccoon is going to making a name for himself soon enough.
Jola Conway : Pleased with her results while looking down her nose at those with lower results than hers.
Derrick Wells : (no comment)
Lucie Damphousse : The tall otter has a good combine, showing how a good asset she can be as a Tall TE, with great vertical jump that can make her a prime choice of a weapon for any QB in the UFFL. She also shown some great maturity about handling her OCD problems, something that can be quite a good image in the league as she steps up to prove herself.
Olaf Gundersen : Nothing could be interpreted from Olaf's indecipherable Norwegian accent and language, but whatever it was, it sounded off-putting and angry.
Dana Pierce : "I f*ckin' rocked it. Pierce family is nothin' short of champs. I'm here to make UFFL history, ladies and gentlefurs, trophy leopard coming through, hahahahahaha!!!!"
Johnathan McGuire : "I guess I gotta get back in the Gym a little more, but I think I came out of that decently."
Colleen Kemper : One of the most promising Canadian draftees this year and perhaps the most promising Defensive draftee of this year's draft, Kemper shown herself to be in top physical shape. Having one of the fastest 40 yard dash and also one of the vertical jumps of the combine. She shown the athletic tools to be a terror on the secondary and be an important piece in stopping high powered offenses such as Fargo, Baltimore or New York.
Malcolm Domi : Malcolm came into the combine as a nice surprise as he shown great agility and speed for a Bear linebacker, an asset that could be particularly interesting on a defensive line, as his intelligence and fondness for technique over strength could give a team a future Cline general of a different kind.
