Kyle Friend is Officially a "Freak"

8.13.15 | Football, Kyle Friend - All-American Candidate

PHILADELPHIA - Temple University OL Kyle Friend has been named to FOX Sport's Bruce Feldman's annual College Football Top 25 Freak's List.

Friend earned the #16 distinction and is one of just a few holdovers from last year's list. Here's the excerpt:

16. Kyle Friend, Temple, C: One of several holdovers from last year's Freaks list, the 6-2, 305-pound senior continues to wow folks inside the Owls program. This offseason, Friend -- a guy who has started 33 consecutive games -- benched 225 pounds 46 times and also ran the 40 in 4.95 seconds.

"Kyle is the strongest player I've ever coached," said Temple head coach Matt Rhule, a former NFL assistant.

"He is also the best combination of strength and speed I've ever coached."

On top of that, Friend has a 3.35 GPA in business management.
