Monday morning was supposed to mark the first day of spring practice but due to intense thunderstorms, practice was canceled. Luckily for Aldrick Robinson and other SMU seniors, the weather cleared up in time for SMU Pro Day, which was held Monday afternoon at Gerald J. Ford Stadium.
SMU Pro Day allowed Robinson and company to showcase their skills in front of scouts from across the NFL including the Dallas Cowboys, Pittsburgh Steelers, Indianapolis Colts, San Francisco 49ers and others. The former Mustangs took part in 40-yard dashes, agility drills, shuttles and position drills.
"It felt good being out here today," Robinson said. "It was a little windy and we had kind of a bad weather day but I felt like I did good."
