Charhair 345 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Having a starting QB whose main asset is his running ability and speed who is that small would worry me going into a season like next year but we've seen plenty of small players contribute every game on high caliber sec teams. Percy Harvin was 6-1 188 when he started at UF. Not to mention O-Mac's role in 2010 (and other seasons). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnacle 9,064 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 45] ⭐️Deshaun Davis ⭐ @ _Davis_Boy12 @jf3_5 4.28 ON LASER that ain't even fair bruh! #MrCatchMeIfYouCan Meaning he ran a 4.28 forty? Now that is Bo Jackson and Dion Sanders territory and not many others! Yeah that's fast, even assuming for a margin of error with the timing, which with laser I'm not sure how much there is. For those who know, when the coaches have talked about him needing to improve ball security, are they talking about fumbles or INTs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cole256 17,084 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 It was ball handling and fumbling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he runs that fast they may be talking about wearing a jock strap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnacle 9,064 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 It was ball handling and fumbling Thanks. Ball handling is just repetition, that should be easy to fix. Fumbling is more difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cole256 17,084 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Yeah, I watched his 40, you can tell he runs wild. If he knows how to slide and run out of bounds that will certainly help though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAG 33,997 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 4.28 Lasered....I know he is very fast but I have to see it believe it. I mean Deshaun is saying we have 5 guys who ran 4.28 or faster. Very hard for me to believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottsboroAuburnFan 462 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 We brought in some guys who can flat out fly. So I wouldn't be supprised if we have 5 sub 4.4 guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe it. Not one single guy in the 2016 combine ran a lasered sub 4.2 forty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I wouldn't be supprised if we have 5 sub 4.4 guys I looked up the combine records and only 5 players have ever ran 4.28 or lower.

I mean, I don't think he's lying, but there is no way we have 5 guys who would run official 4.28s or lower. Seems like this happens every year. 5 guys run some ridiculous time, then they get to the combine and run 1-2 tenths of a second slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except against Auburn in College Station got knocked out for a series or two Yeah, someone landed on him as I remember. He played pretty inspired after they numbed his arm up. That was a fun night. We were down at the beach watching all the games at the Red Bar. First, Auburn surprised A&M, then my friend Andrew Ritter kicked the game winning field goal for Ole Miss to beat LSU later that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say that JF3 quite possibly could run a 4.3 Jonathon did it last year. Definitely not seeing five guys doing it though. Good to see we have world class speed on the field though.

cole256 17,084 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 They say Davis can fly, not Carlton but the other guy. Ford probably does run a sub 4.4. I think we probably have around 4 guys that can run at least low 4.4's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cole256 17,084 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Absolutely. Truitt and Ryan Davis are still hurt too aren't they. Then looking at the guys are different positions. Jf3 a qb, Ford a safety, Davis a corner....We can potentially field a pretty fast team on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weagl1 1,785 Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 If you look at the article on al.com it also says Ford ran 4.20 and Davis ran 4.18. I'm calling BS. I know they are fast but they ain't that fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
