The city of Nashville has a rich history of musical talent. The Musicians Hall of Fame is located in this very city. Most notable artists have passed through this city at one time or another. Even though lyrics and love songs are a big part of life Nashville, touchdowns and tackle dummies are slated to take over Saturday at Glencliff HS.
Current 8th, 9th and 10th graders are slated to compete at 8 am, while Juniors put it all on the line 1 PM Saturday April 3. All athletes will partake in pro-style combine testing, including the 40-yard dash, broad jump, bench press, vertical leap, and shuttle run along with position specific drills, 1 on 1’s and 3 on 3 competitions.
Highly rated recruit Brady Earnhardt (Mount Juliet) was a 2009 standout, and will play for Army in the fall. The speedy Earnhardt (no not with a race car) jetted across the field en route to running a 4.29 shuttle and 4.35 40. He also bench pressed 185 lbs 26 times and had a 35 inch vertical. A soldier indeed.
Arkansas State bound Bo Wallace, the Overall MVP, did a stellar job in 09'. The 6''4 182 lber had a 34 inch vertical, 8'9 broad jump, ran a 4.44 shuttle, bench pressed 185 lbs 19 times and put on a show during 1 on 1's.
Jordan Poole is another Nashville area recruit flooded with talent. The 6'1 220 lb linebacker is slated to hit the field for Southern Illinois this fall.
"From the music clubs to the football field, Nashville is very much one of my favorite trips", David Schuman, NUC CEO & President, said with a huge smile on his face. "There are always noteworthy D1 players here."
