Kansas State 2000 Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 A&M is currently a 5 pt. favorite, I'd expect them to cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonkis Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 (edited) edited to add link McNeal runs a 4.38s 40-yard dash to Sproles 4.41s. Not bad, but that's what Neon Deion runs it in right now and he's old. Edited September 29, 2004 by Gonkis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kansas State 2000 Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Check out Sproles back-up --- Thomas Clayton 6-foot 217-pounds 3.32 40 :eek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen a number that low. Do they have 40 times for Olympic sprinters? that's got to be right up there with them, or down there as the case may be...

Nobody runs that fast. There was an article a year or so ago about how some of the 4.2x times are timing errors, as it is virtually impossible.

Dragon Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 It's true ... he transferred from Florida State. 448868[/snapback] It might be true that he transferred from Fla State, but there is no way he runs a 3.anything 40. Do the math. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonkis Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 2001 article on Clayton He ran it in 4.32 in 2001 as a high schooler. That's crazy enough. "of the 4.2x times are timing errors" - Why? Do they count 1 mississippi, 2 misissippi? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"of the 4.2x times are timing errors" - Why? Do they count 1 mississippi, 2 misissippi? 448999[/snapback] I think we just confirmed its an error, supposed to be 4.32, not 3.32. Is it possible to improve a whole second in the 40 between HS and college? I think not. BTW, is it possible that the standards for testing are different? That is, how do they clock this - is it the first 40 yards only, or the middle of a 100 yard dash, etc.? Either way, I still don't think you gain a full 1.0 second in a one or two year span (between the ages of 18-20?) by "improving your start" or finish, in only 40 yards....

polksalet Posted September 29, 2004 Author Share Posted September 29, 2004 Courtney Lewis has better football speed than Mcneal. Hes like Sproles but quicker with zero power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
