nthony Darelle "Booger" McFarland· Feb 25, 2026

McFarland projected Ohio State's Arbel Reese to measure in at roughly 6-4 and 240-245 pounds at the combine, and argued Cincinnati and Trey Hendrickson will go their separate ways this offseason.

“He's probably gonna come in six four, two hundred and forty, two hundred and forty five pounds.”
