The prospects were divided into two groups as they are at many pro days – Kansas State players on one side, a few long shots from the area's small colleges on the other.
One of those long shots sure looked familiar to the NFL scouts and coaches on hand, though.
"As soon as they called my name and I stood up, everyone was like, 'Dillon Baxter? From SC?'" Baxter told USA TODAY Sports recently. "I was like, 'Yeah, bro.'"
Four years ago, Baxter was lighting up spring practice at the University of Southern California – a high school all-America and Hall Trophy winner as the nation's top prep player. He'd enrolled early to get a jump on his promising career.
Just plug his name into YouTube to see Baxter make the entire Trojans defense look silly on a 50-yard scamper in the 2010 spring scrimmage. Another video, of Baxter's game highlights his freshman year, carries the description: "He could have been great."
