Does anybody know who'll participate and if any former Hawkeyes will be there?

Weisman ran a 4.61.... Not shabby at all. This RB class was slow lots of 4.5 and under times. For a 242 lb fullback he should get looked at. Wouldn't surprise me if he's drafted late.
exactly what shonn greene ran.
message board fans are funny.

Iowa's Marc Weisman is a freak. Should be No. 1 fullback off the board. Huge workout today. He's Kuhn Jr. but more athletic.
I wish Ferentz knew a lot of things regarding player personnel. The whole team would have produced better last year!I wish Ferentz knew he was a FB. The backfield would have produced last year.

More info on Weisman's pro day performance
Compared to all of the RBs invited to the NFL combine (RBs, not FBs), here is how Weisman compared:
His testing numbers would seem to indicate an adequate level of agility, and I think we saw that sometimes on the field. As some have said, perhaps the times we he has looked less-than-productive are due more to team issues than individual issues. Best of luck to him at the next level.
- Of the 31 running backs who ran the 40 at the Combine, only 12 were faster than Weisman's 4.61.
- Of the 25 backs to run the three-cone drill at the Combine, only four were faster than Weisman’s 6.88.
- Of the 32 backs who did the broad jump, only four jumped further than Weisman’s 10 feet, 3 inches.
- Of the 26 backs who performed the short shuttle, only nine were faster than Weisman’s 4.17.
- Of the 29 backs who did the vertical jump, only eight jumped higher than Weisman’s 36 inches.
Wow. Good stuff. I am a big fan of MW, but this is actually a big surprise to me. I hope he gets a good look and some quality time in the NFL down the road.
Great guy, who will be a very good spokesperson for Iowa football down the road.
