MAR 1 SANDERS RUNS 40 Ja’Tavion Sanders, a former Texas Longhorns tight end, is likely to be among the first players at his position taken in the 2024 NFL Draft. He’s participating in the NFL Scouting Combine and did his 40-yard sprint on Friday evening in Indianapolis to further bolster his stock.
Sanders scored an unofficial 4.74 on his first attempt and a 4.69 on his second.
Look at his second attempt:
FEB 29 SWEAT FLIES On Wednesday at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, Texas Longhorns defensive tackle T’Vondre Sweat teased that he would surprise with his 40-yard dash speed.
“I’m just a big guy,” Sweat explained. “A lot of people get scared of the numbers and all that, but when y’all see me move tomorrow, I think a lot of people are going to be surprised.”
And on Thursday afternoon, he achieved exactly that, running a 5.27 on his first try. He refused to run a second time.
I’m just gonna say it… either the @TexasFootball videography team is significantly better… or this team looks much bigger, faster, quicker, and explosive than the players in the video the Ags released yesterday. https://t.co/K4fGMnk42P

Sweat also tested in other parameters on Thursday, recording a 26-inch vertical and an 8′ 2″ broad jump.
Longhorns standout Byron Murphy also tested, running a 4.90 40-yard sprint (1.69 10-yard split) on his first attempt, hitting a 33-inch vertical and a 9′ 3″ broad jump. Murphy’s second 40 timed in at 4.8 (1.70 10-yard split).
FEB 27, CUNNINGHAM HOOKS EM Following his dismissal against the Texas Tech Red Raiders, Longhorns forward Brock Cunningham mocked the fans with hook’em horns.
Texas Tech fans were upset when they threw debris onto the court.
Following the game, Tech coach Grant McCasland addressed the supporters on the arena microphone, urging them to stop.
“Everyone listens. Hello, right here. “Everyone listen,” McCasland stated. “Everything thrown on the court will result in a technical foul. Listen to me. It has to stop. It has to stop. There’s nothing else on the floor. “Am I clear?”
