‘He’s the 40, combine guru’: Pete Bommarito prepares NFL draft prospects for the combine in South Florida

With scouting combine training unfamiliar for many football players, South Florida’s Pete Bommarito helps bridge that gap.

AVENTURA — Pete Bommarito sits in his chair at the 40-yard marker away from a football player about to turn track sprinter for the next few seconds. He’s locked in on more details than a quarterback at the line of scrimmage reading a defense, calling an audible, adjusting protection and signaling hot routes.

Bommarito has cameras positioned every 10 yards on the track set up on a football turf sideline. He’s got trainers and employees positioned at the starting line and another one taking video on a tablet opposite his post on the track.
