Fuller .09 Seconds Away from $1 Million Bonus!
Notre Dame student-athlete Will Fuller was nine hundredths of a second away from a $1 million bonus -- yesterday morning in Indianapolis.
Fuller's time of 4.32 seconds for the FORTY YARD DASH fell short of Chris Johnson's 4.24 forty time -- the time he needed to beat to earn a $1 million bonus from Adidas.
I still think this time is going to earn him at least a million dollar bonus -- as he's now being discussed as a FIRST ROUND DRAFT PICK.
Did Will Fuller Do Enough to Go in First Round?
That seems to be the consensus after the Notre Dame student-athlete turned heads with his 4.32 40 yard dash, 33.5" vertical jump, 10'-7" broad jump and catching everything thrown his way in Indianapolis...

Domers Dunne & Veihmeyer Make AT&T Cut!
Jimmy Dunne '78 and John Veihmeyer '77 will be playing in today's final round of the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am -- after making the cut! Only the top 25 teams made the cut this year -- Dunne and Reed got in on a scorecard playoff.
Veihmeyer and his professional playing partner Phil Mickelson are at -18 for the tournament and are tied for 17th place. Dunne and his professional playing partner Patrick Reed are at -17 in a tie for 21st.
In the video above -- John Veihmeyer '77 is the first to give Phil a "fist bump" after his chip in -- and then you'll see Jimmy Dunne '78 getting ready to putt say something to Phil.
There are three teams tied for the lead at -23
Condoleezza Rice '75 and her professional playing partner Jason Bohn had a great third round scored of 64 -- but, they ended up at -13, four shots below the cut line.
Veihmeyer is in for a pretty special day. His playing partner Phil Mickelson -- just happens to be leading the professional tournament. So John will be playing in the last group on Sunday at a PGA Tour event -- WOW!!!
FYI: John is the Global Chairman of KPMG -- Mickelson's long-time sponsor...
Jimmy will be playing in a foursome with his playing partner Patrick Reed and two other PGA Tour players Kevin Streelman and Tyler Aldridge. I wouldn't be surprised if Dunne beats one of them straight up -- last year Jimmy carded a 69 at Pebble Beach in this tournament.
