We also have improved our ability to accurately test these standards through tools like the Just Jump, Safety Squat, Speed Trap, etc. We also developed standards for women and younger athletes. In addition, we have a graduated scale of excellence to help all athletes achieve with a step-by-step formula of excellence through standards. <br>When I coached high school football, I expected every varsity high school football starter and thrower, except some skill athletes, to achieve at least the All-State standards. At the Division- I college level, I would now expect every starting lineman to Parallel Squat 600, Bench 400, Power Clean 350 from the floor, Dot Drill 45 seconds, run 4.6 on defense and 4.8 on offense, Vertical Jump 35 inches on defense and 33 inches on offense, Standing Long Jump10-6 on defense and 10-0 on offense, and Sit & Reach five inches past the toes. <br>  If you can t or won t achieve our highest standards, you will hold our football team back. If you are a thrower at the college level and you can t or won t do at least the defensive lineman starter requirements, you can t compete at the national level. You see, a thrower is different than a lineman because nobody can make up for your weaknesses. I just can t say it any plainer than that. <br><br>" <br><br>Achieving these standards are what we have to do to make our success happen. We will spend the necessary time and effort to get there. I can't guarantee that we will win a state or national championship. But, I can guarantee that we will never lose because we lack strength, speed, explosive power or quickness. We will be bigger, faster and stronger. We will be extremely confident in that fact. I will do everything in my power to help you achieve these reachable standards. If everyone will do their part, we will physically dominant our opponents.<br>Coach Shepard<br>(From a 1970 speech)t he can consistently throw long with great accuracy.<br>Although you d think he d have some nervousness in his first game in Division I football, Vick didn t show any signs of it as he introduced himself to the college ranks by running for three touchdowns against James Madison University. In that regard, offensive coordinator Rickey Bustle says that one of Vick s greatest strengths is that he is levelheaded and doesn t let things get to him.<br>Virginia Tech s Mike Gentry, Assistant Athletic Director for Athletic Performance, is especially impressed with Vick s attitude.  The most special thing about Michael Vick is not his outstanding athletic ability but the fact that with all the hoopla surrounding him, he continues to work hard and does not invite special attention. He just wants to be one of the players. <br><br>Weighty Matters<br>When Vick came to VT he had some good numbers in the weightroom for a freshman quarterback. At 195 pounds, he had a 270 bench press, a 34-inch vertical jump, and ran a 4.42 forty (hand timed). Impressive results at any level. After the first year under Coach Gentry s direction, Vick added 50 pounds to his bench, four inches to his vertical, and dropped his forty time to 4.33. Those numbers have taken another a big jump in the off-season. Since coming to Virginia Tech, Vick has added 17 pounds of muscle, can bench 340, squat 515, power clean 280, push jerk 3
