Vickers squats 710
Robertson has put up 33 reps of 225.
KMac has put up 29 225's (some say 34, but that was 185s), benched 495 without much strain, squat-615, clean-315 ,and can dunk a basketball at 6-3, 350 (He now is about 20 lbs less).
Owen Williams reportedly put up 36/37 reps of 225, benches bench 510, squat 710, per in NFL.com last week. Robertson was quoted as saying Owen is #1, he is #2, in the bench on the team.
Stripling said Vickers' 710 squat was a team best.
Vickers & Robertson won the spring John Stuckey Power awards.
Thinking back to history (No guarantee on these numbers):
IIRC,
DT Darwin Walker maxed out at 525 in the bench at UT, but may have later made 570.
OT Albert Toeaina benched 550.
OG Jac McClendon (QB Sterling Hinton's son) benched 645 (225 37 times at the NFL combine), squat 730 lb. He was 6-3, 330 (Size sound familiar?) If you think this is impressive, he was also 3 time Academic ALL-SEC. Now that is impressive.
FB/TB Doug Furnas eventually benched 618 in competition, but after leaving UT.
TB Tony Thompson clean & jerk was abt 300 lbs (in competition, Fla champ) when he weighed 178.
Travis Henry as frosh reportedly did 20 reps of 545 squat.
Harry Galbreath was the strongest player on the team as a freshman in the early 80's. He was said to have benched 475-585 pounds (I've seen both as his max at UT), squatted over 800, but I don't recall anything official.
An observer said in 1-on1 drills, Tuttle shows unbelievable strength, but I haven't heard any of his lifts.
