'15 DE GA Andrew Butcher (UT Commit 6/8/13)

That's the old long arm problem with the bench press. I remember the surprise when John Henderson "only" benched either 18 or 19 reps at 225 at the combine. Not a big deal.

I think Henderson benched 24 reps. And the long arm debate holds true to a certain extent, but it isn't that huge of a factor. If Clowney had been hitting it in the weight room like he should have, there is no doubt he would have done more than 21 reps, period. No excuses. Some of these guys just don't put in the work. I think Cosey Coleman did like 19 reps. Pitiful.

Wish Butcher would post a pic of his Mom doing push up penance, it would be an awesome avatar for one of our lady posters like smokeyhuntsgators, hehe

You rang?:)

In regards to Butcher, he will absolutely destroy some future QB's. Glad I'm not one of them, but I'll sure enjoy being a spectator.:)

You're right. I googled some videos. Apparently there was a punter who did more reps than Clowney. Lol.

Julius peppers and Greg hardy both did 21 reps. That's a solid number for a DE.
Butcher make any 4.4 jokes yet? ...

prob gonna need some upper body strength against those all pro tackles who also have long arms though. its not completely irrelevant.

I agree that it's fine for the DE position. As in it shouldn't make a huge difference at that position, especially since he is so fast. 21 reps isn't "weak". But I do think a lot of these guys should be doing more. A serious work ethic in the weight room and they would be. That is what it means to me. Just a negative hit in the work ethic department.

I think you have to be committed to the weight room to be able to even get to 21 reps of 225 but perhaps I am in a minority

Yea...I appreciate cockiness in a player if it is done in the right way. Taking a shot at Clowney was a bit misguided.

I'm with Butcher. I could make excuses for Clowney, but why? Everybody in the sports world kisses his rear end enough already. Go Vols! Go Andrew Butcher!
