Not so fast my friend....Corey ran an official 4.43...we still don't have Kyle's official time.
Looks like Kyle lost the bet the Corey. I'd have to imagine that Thanksgivings at the Fuller house are never boring.
...and this brings me to what the answers tell about the person beyond creativity.
A person who asks for clarification about the 'rules' seeks structure in their lives and prefers to work under a scheme of processes, procedures, rules and regs.
A person who limits their responses to practical, traditional uses feel there's no need to reinvent the wheel, or that there are well established 'best' uses that need not be questioned.
A person who assumes all bets are off is more assertive and conceptual in their thinking and is more interested in the possibilities than finding the 'best' use. Probably seeks novelty and adventure.
A person who goes beyond the actual physical limitations of the brick itself tends to challenge assumptions and is constantly looking for new and different ways to do things.
There are strengths and weaknesses to all approaches but the main thing is, what is the NFL looking for?
Deion Sanders, observing the CBs, said Antone Exum sill looks tentative on his leg. Said he thinks Exum is more a safety than corner.— Andy Bitter (@AndyBitterVT) February 25, 2014
Seeing conflicting comments about Kyle Fuller and his pedaling technique:
deion says kyle fuller hasn't been taught to drop his hips...— Chris Scott (@cscott08vt) February 25, 2014
Kyle Fuller backpedals a bit high, but transitions well, loose hips. Seems natural for him. Always around the ball on tape. #nfldk #Packers— Kristian Vestergaard (@Schen_RulEz) February 25, 2014
Only real knock on Va Tech CB Kyle Fuller throughout drills is his inability to stay low when back pedaling. Having a solid day otherwise.— Dion Caputi (@nfldraftupdate) February 25, 2014

# | Bitter blog - Tuesday's running NFL Scouting Combine post: Antone Exum, Kyle Fuller's turn Seems like they like Corey. He just needs some extra weight and strength. After all he didn't get the full benefit of Gentry.
"Corey's got size, he's got speed," Mayhew said. "He was a guy that was a track guy that came to football late. He's really, I think, improved since we've had him.
"His big thing is a need to get stronger in the weight room. I think he's worked very hard at that. I think another year in the offseason program's really going to benefit him quite a bit, so I'm looking forward to seeing him.
"You know, it's hard to find guys that are 6-2 that run 4.39. He's one of those kinds of guys, so I'm excited about seeing him work."

We can agree to disagree. I think Flacco has benefited from a great running game and defense. I haven't seen or really heard of him putting the team on his shoulders and willing them to a win.
Greenberg isn't coming back.
Excellent job Joe, love these new recruit interviews. Should we get our hopes up for more of these?
"I'm going to get after you for four quarters, try to wear you down, and you're not going to want anything after fourth quarter is over."
Obviously his film-watching isn't limited to in-game film, because that's some textbook BeamerSpeak.

# | Bitter blog - Tuesday's running NFL Scouting Combine post: Antone Exum, Kyle Fuller's turn Before we give the Lions to much Fuller credit, Corey spent all of last season on their practice squad, which is better than nothing but would much rather see him get a real shot at a roster, be it with the Lions or someone else.
Updated OP with a couple new tweets on Exum and Fuller along with their 225 reps and 40 times.

# | Bitter blog - Tuesday's running NFL Scouting Combine post: Antone Exum, Kyle Fuller's turn If Fuller gets drafted by the Lions, do they become the super bowl favorite by default of the Fuller factor having a Fuller on both sides of the ball?
Dude, come on!
It's not like he's a TE or anything.
That is a fantastic interview, Joe!
I really like where this kid's head is. Some very thoughtful replies. I especially liked this:
What I'm going to try to do is get back up there for spring ball, sit through an o-line meeting with him, dial up some film, and talk through schemes.
He sounds like a coach on the field, and I don't think you can overestimate the value of a center with a great football IQ who can identify defensive packages and set up blocking accordingly.
Suggestion for a follow-up question: Has his dad used up his eligibility yet?
1st run. Exum 4.51 - Fuller 4.40
2nd run. Exum 4.5 - Fuller 4.40
Unofficial but they are consistent
Great interview joe

# | Bitter blog - Tuesday's running NFL Scouting Combine post: Antone Exum, Kyle Fuller's turn Unofficial times. Frankly seems like alot of variation between unofficial and official. Understand the hand timing methodology likely to be low, but for some guys it seems very low and others it seems not so much.
Hoping Fuller keeps it under 4.5 and hoping Exum can do the same, but if he can't as close to 4.5 as possible.

# | Bitter blog - Tuesday's running NFL Scouting Combine post: Antone Exum, Kyle Fuller's turn Kyle Fuller with a 4.40. That will definitely help him after most people questioned if he had top end speed.
How about the wedding photo of Mr. and Mrs. Fuller?

Pretty much sums up DBU over the last couple decades.
You could go to an Ugly Sweater party and still rep VT. I guess that qualifies as a win-win.
This is probably those two polls anticipating that the College Football Playoff format will eventually change from its current setting of 4 to be almost similar to the way FCS, and Div III is run at 16.
