Heard that all the schools recruiting him were doing so as an ATH instead of QB. Electric jitterbug. Probably a slot guy.

First thing I thought when I saw 18 int's.

Probably a kid we can take a chance on where Power 5 can't afford to miss on "ATH types" (one who really has no true position in college). Needs development.

Quite a sad and inspiring story. But for the grace of God...
Prayers for him to keep overcoming and escape that very difficult childhood. Makes you think of how many kids of privilege take things for granted.

Looks like he was previously committed to USM. Looks like he has the talent and desire to do big things here. I will be pulling for him.

By the way, look at the 1st couple of minutes of the first video in the hudl link above. He makes those other kids look foolish.

There is no way that is an accurate time. That would beat the fastest time ever recorded at the NFL combine by almost a full second.

4.3 is insane fast and 1% of elite athletes can achieve.

Well, both of the web addresses for the links do contain "bolt"...

I found a website that tried to estimate what Bolt would run in the 40. Their best estimate was 3.96 adjusted for reaction time of the person running the stopwatch. Their non-adjusted estimate was 4.2

The fastest time ever recorded at the combine was Chris Johnson's 4.24. There is speculation that Dion Sanders and Bo Jackson were faster but the official fastest time was Johnson's.

One second doesn't seem very long. But if I was one second faster in the 40 yard dash, I'd be the fastest man on the planet. COGS

I would think that they could now measure without any time-keeper reaction time. Just have a pressure sensor to detect the start and a laser to detect the finish. All done electronically and with not specific start command - just let the athlete start when ready, detect, and measure.

For what its worth, Scout lists his "verified" 40 time as 4.6 and ESPN has it as 4.8.

Not sure where Hudl got their number, probably a typo.

It's no way he could run a forty time like that and P5 schools not be all over him.

Well CJ challenged Bolt to a 40 race and Bolt wouldn't do it. Bolt wants to run 100 because the last 50 is where he kills you. Doubt he could break the 40 record.

Guarantee he is going to play QB. He probably would have gone to a smaller just to play QB.
