The Super Bowl is over.
The NFL Scouting Combine invitation list has been released.
And in the NFL, where it's always just two seasons -- in-season and Draft season -- the latter is taking shape.
While Indianapolis is again host city of the annual NFL Combine, which runs Feb. 23 through March 2, several college programs are finalizing their dates for their annual 'Pro Day' events, which provide players an opportunity to showcase on their respective campuses and facilities their skill-sets for NFL personnel.
The biggest college 'Pro Days' will draw head coaches, general managers and a litany of scouting personnel and assistant coaches.
FootballScoop has compiled an early list of 'Pro Day' dates that is tracked down, and it will add to this list in the coming weeks.
But look for Ohio State, which is among college football's national leaders with 11 Buckeyes invited to the NFL Scouting Combine, to host its on-campus 'Pro Day' on March 25.
That date follows by one day the 'Pro Days' scheduled elsewhere in the region, most notably with Marcus Freeman's Notre Dame Fighting Irish scheduled to host their annual event inside the Irish Athletics Center on March 24, several NFL personnel and college officials told FootballScoop. Notre Dame had six players selected for the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine, highlighted by running backs Jeremiyah Love and Jadarian Price, as well as tight end Eli Raridon and wide receiver Malachi Fields.
Additionally, per multiple NFL scouts and Cincinnati-area people, Scott Satterfield's Cincinnati Bearcats will host their annual 'Pro Day' also on March 24.
The Cal Golden Bears have informed agents that they plan to host their annual 'Pro Day' on March 19 at the Berkeley, California, campus.
Other dates of note include the following:
Wisconsin is tentatively set for one of college football's earliest 'Pro Day' events in this cycle, with the Badgers of Luke Fickell's program slating their day for March 6.
Vanderbilt, coming off a record-setting season under alumnus Clark Lea and boasting Heisman Trophy runner-up Diego Pavia, will conduct its 'Pro Day' on March 20. Pavia and tight end/H-back Eli Stowers both received NFL Scouting Combine invitations for the Commodores.
On that same day, the University of Michigan, which is transitioning into the Kyle Whittingham era after hiring the former Utah coach in late December to replaced the arrested and fired Sherrone Moore, is planning its 'Pro Day' for March 20, an NFL agent told FootballScoop.
The Wolverines' event caps a busy three-day stretch in the state of Michigan; Matt Drinkall's Central Michigan Chippewas are slated for 'Pro Day' on March 18 and Michigan State, transitioning into first-year coach Pat Fitzgerald's operation, is scheduled for March 19.
San Diego State, which blossomed last year under second-year coach Sean Lewis with nine wins and a share of the Mountain West Conference regular-season title, is hosting its 'Pro Day' on March 10, the school told FootballScoop.
