There are a number of factors can play, including communication, technique and human error.

It is now because of this hoopla that I (although previously undecided) am cheering for the Flames to get Bennett. That and because I think he is what this organization needs.
I don't know how this turned into another "Bennett can't do a pullup" thread, but I'll play along.

That wasn't the case. Bennett could not do a pullup at the combine. He can do them now, but at the time he could not. It wasn't an issue with technique, he just couldn't do it.
