Seven players from Villanova’s Football Championship Subdivision (formerly Division I-AA) national championship team participated at Temple’s pro day.
S Ross Ventrone (198 pounds), Browns DB Ray Ventrone’s younger brother, had a great day. He ran the 40-yard dash in 4.46 seconds, had a 35 1/2-inch vertical jump, a 6.77-second three-cone drill and did 22 bench press repetitions at 225 pounds. These numbers would have placed him among the most athletic safeties at the NFL Scouting Combine.
Here are a look at Villanova’s other notable prospects:
WR Brandyn Harvey (6-foot-3, 201 pounds) had a 39-inch vertical jump, a 10-foot, 7-inch broad jump and ran the 40 in 4.60 seconds. He also displayed exceptional hands.
OL Jonathan Bugli (6-5, 311) did 29 bench press reps, with an impressive 31-inch vertical jump. He is a tough kid, who worked out well in position drills.
QB Antwon Young (6-3) is a developmental quarterback. He is very raw, but has a big arm with good athleticism.
DE/OLB Tim Kukucka (6-3, 245 pounds) had a 37-inch vertical jump before pulling his hamstring.
LB Osayi Osunde (6-1, 236) had a 34-inch vertical jump and did 26 bench press reps. A tight quad hampered him in position drills.
DL Phil Matusz (6-2, 319) had 31 bench press repetitions.
It was a beautiful 64 degrees outside Temple’s great facility, and drills were run on FieldTurf. These kids competed their tails off and don’t be surprised if several of the above mentioned players end up fulfilling their dream of playing in the NFL.
