U SPORTS/NCAA COMMITS

  • 2022 CFL draft-eligible CFC60 WR Samuel Emilus recently participated in both the Louisiana Tech and Massachusetts pro days, showing off his athleticism that’s is part of the reason he will be a highly-ranked CFC40 player. He ran a 4.59 40, 4.13 shuttle, 6.88 3-cone, while jumping 37” on the vert and 10’4” on the broad jump. He also put up 9 reps on the bench press

U SPORTS/NCAA CONSIDERATIONS

  • CFC100 LB Jesse Luketa participated at his Penn State pro day too recently.

He also put up 18 reps on the bench press, ran a 4.27 shuttle, and a 7.29 3-cone.
