Wrote:  Swanson's sub 4.5 40 yard dash at UT Pro Day was, per my current understanding, hand timed based on runner initiating the start and the timer then reacting and starting the stop watch. I believe at the NFL combine it is laser timed. Therefore, most NFL combine/draft experts seem to want to add anywhere from .13 to .18 seconds of reaction time to get an equivalent laser time. If this is indeed true then a sub 4.5, let's say 4.47, is now at minimum 4.60 or max 4.65 in a virtual laser timed comparison. I doubt a 4.6 40 time at the NFL combine would get anyone excited. However, I do think he CAN play in the NFL as a true RB vs special teams type player - but he could do that as well. He has VERY good running instincts. He is a one or 2 cut back and he is downfield for 15. I LOVE Terry Swanson from a dedicated UT fan perspective. I like the idea that he is a seemingly true team player. Hunt got all the press but Swanson kept plugging away with great stats of his own while waiting for his time to shine. Once the spotlight hit him he really shined. I DO hope he gets drafted like I root for all UT players/alums.

GO Rockets!

Plus he has a championship ring. Hunt doesn't.
