For more than a decade, we've been spotlighting the biggest "Freaks" in college football -- those guys who are the top workout warriors in the sport or the guys who possess some rare physical abilities that wow folks inside their programs. Our Top 25 countdown comes thanks to the input of many coaches, players and sports information directors around the country. Here's our Top 25 for 2015:
10. Uso Olive, Wyoming, NT: Cowboys coach Craig Bohl spent a lot of years at Nebraska. He played for the Huskers, served as a graduate assistant with the team and later spent a decade as an assistant in Lincoln. He says he’s not seen anyone do some of the things Olive can do in the weight room. Wyoming’s strength coach Zach Duval, also a former Huskers staffer, said the 5-11, 310-pound Olive has done five reps on the bench with 555 pounds with one two-by-four on his chest (to prevent shoulder injury). In addition, Olive has squatted 876 for two reps “with no problems and he did it with no wraps.” Duval also said Olive can bench 225 over 40 times “easily.” The video below shows Olive squatting 765 for a double.
