South Dakota linebacker Keyen Lage had a great day with the best 40 time among all linebackers in attendance. Running a 4.65 in 40 would’ve been good enough for 8th at the NFL Combine. His vertical jump, 39 inches, would’ve been good enough for third.
Mike Lilly ran a 4.47 40. That was the top time among cornerbacks.

Representatives from six NFL teams were on hand for a joint pro day held by South Dakota State and South Dakota on Wednesday.
The workout was held at South Dakota State, and took place indoors and run on FieldTurf. There were three players from South Dakota State, five from South Dakota and 15 more from area small schools to participate in the pro day.
South Dakota State tight end Cam Jones has decided to give up on playing football because of an injury.
South Dakota defensive lineman Drew Iddings -- 6-foot-5 3/8, 290 pounds -- ran the 40-yard dash in 4.74 and 4.78 seconds. He had a 32 1/2-inch vertical jump and 9-foot-8 broad jump. He did the 20-yard short shuttle in 4.64 seconds and the three-cone drill in 7.78 seconds. He also performed 20 reps of 225 pounds on the bench press. Iddings worked out good at the pro day, and could be a free-agent pickup for a team following the 2016 NFL Draft.
South Dakota linebacker Keyen Lage -- 6-2, 230 -- ran the 40 in 4.62 seconds on both attempts. He had a 36 1/2-inch vertical jump and 10-foot-4 broad jump. He did the short shuttle in 4.32 seconds and the three-cone drill in 7.12 seconds. He performed 18 reps on the bench. Like Iddings, Lage is a possible rookie free-agent pickup for an NFL team.

Wow, a 4.74 is pretty dang fast for a DL. That would have tied for 6th fastest DL 40 in the combine. For comparison he would have been 2nd in vertical and T-10th broad jump.

Lage ranking among NFL combine entrants:
Vertical - tied 5th
Broad - T-5th
Short shuttle - T-9th
3 cone - T-9th (Same as Darron Lee from Ohio St.)
Putting up good combine numbers is usually what separates players from getting camp invites.

Saw on NFL Draft scout that Drew Iddings is ranked #25 DT. Projected as 7th round/FA. Funny because I think some of us saw that he would have this chance ( told a friend if mine I thought he had the measurable last yr). Keyan Lage 57th OLB.

2 Yotes continuing the football dream, and 2 USF players. Congrats! The yotes seem to send a lot of players to the NFL relative to our wins on the FCS level. Looking forward to seeing the new staff mold the talent into more wins while they are still in college  |
