Continue ReadingThis past weekend Arkansas Sport Combine held its first Pro Day event. Often overlooked when it comes to recruiting on the national stage, Arkansas Sport Combine aims to “discover and provide exposure for the next generation of great athletes, by providing high value training and experience” at its events. All of the combine drills were timed and measured using Zybek Sports, to ensure verified times.
Though there were a number of standout athletes, the day belonged to 2026 Running Back, Terry Hodges. The future Marked Tree Indian prospect recorded the top result in four out of the five combine drills, including the 40 yard dash, agility, vertical and broad. To boot, the one drill he didn’t finish atop the leader board, the L-Drill, he finished second. Hodges was clearly the most complete prospect in attendance, as he also has promising size for an eighth grade running back at nearly 5-foot-10 and 160 pounds.

While a lot of the skills guys picked up the combine testing accolades, deservedly and expectedly so, they also did measure height, weight and reach. Size isn’t everything, especially at the middle school level, but these are the measurable’s that a lot of next level coaches put emphasis on during the recruiting process.
