CFB Note - Northern Illinois Lurry, Shawun

Northern Illinois University held its annual Football Pro Day Wednesday at the Kenneth and Ellen Chessick Practice Center as 15 former Huskies worked out under the watchful eye of 14 scouts from 11 National Football League teams. Former Huskie All-American cornerback Shawun Lurry turned in the top 40 time of the day with a best of 4.49 seconds, while fellow corners Mayomi Olootu, Jr. and Jonathan Parker came in at 4.52 seconds. Receiver Christian Blake was the only other player under 4.6 as he was clocked in 4.56 seconds. "I felt pretty good, "said Lurry, who finished his career with 14 career interceptions and the NIU records for interception return yards and yards per INT return. "I had three months of training and I came out and showed what I could do. People are always questioning my height, but whether it's against the Power Five opponents we played or out here, I have to get out there and do my thing." - Northern Illinois Football
