Pro Day
Pro Day is today in Ruston. All 32 NFL teams are there.
Which of our players are competing? I take it Henderson, XWoods,TTaylor, Higgins, are the topOriginally Posted by Dawg06
I honestly think Brice (and maybe Barnes) were signed to camps based on their pro day performances in Ruston.
Have you considered those Dogs?
And prepped by Kurt Hester . . . .
Louisiana Tech University
Flagship of the University of Louisiana System
Undoubtedly, both Paul Turner and Kentrell Brice had opportunities to make rosters based upon Hester getting them ready for Pro Day. I don't remember them being on the radar or even listed as free agent possibilities before then. Pretty sure Dora was already being looked at but not positive.

If these men are no longer students, how can an employee and facilities of the university be used for personal gain? How long is the student aid contract good for? Just asking for a friend. (not that there is anything wrong with that). I am assuming it's PR for the program that counts.
I know some things were going to be posted on Snapchat, but I don't do snapchat. The only thing I have been able to find pertains to Chad Williams who attended Tech's Pro Day instead of Grambling's. I saw NFL 28 teams attended Grambling's Pro Day while all 32 teams attended Tech's. It seems kind of strange to me, but I can see where an athlete would receive more exposure at Tech's Pro Day, than at Grambling's.
I believe the placement office (corporate recruiting) may be available for alumni. Some one who knows can verify that.
Figured that out all on your own did ya?
Did Isabella go cover Grambling's Pro Day instead of Tech's?

Louisiana Tech
Almost a half dozen receiver coaches were on hand for Louisiana Tech pro day to see the Bulldogs duo of Carlos Henderson and Trent Taylor. Both players stood on their combine testing marks but participated in position drills and each of them caught the ball well. Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter ran the workout.
Henderson is catching fire on draft boards. He met with the San Francisco 49ers, Arizona Cardinals and New Orleans Saints last night.
Louisiana Tech quarterback Ryan Higgins was a surprise winner today. His arm and accuracy were very impressive and several people said of Higgins passes, “he could spin it.”
The story on Higgins? He was slated to start ahead of Jeff Driskel entering the 2015 campaign but suffered an injury late in camp. Driskel was given the job and Higgins rode the bench. Driskel was eventually selected in the sixth round of last April’s draft. While it’s unlikely Higgins is selected in the draft he is expected to sign a deal after the draft.

Good for Ryan. I hope he gets a shot.
I have not seen any tweets from Isabella recently which is unusual. Maybe he was out sick Tuesday or something.
What I am hoping to see somewhere is what 40 time Higgins had (assuming he ran it).
Apparently he may be looking into employment near OK City, as his wife just got employed there...
