In reply to: 10 yard split more important  posted by jt


in high school, of course, we ran a 40 yard dash. But someone measured it out and thinks it might have been a 38 or 39 yard dash. Think about it, a coach comes in and measures high schooler times for RB's and a kid runs a 4.75 or something...you can't give that score to a recruiter. Not that recruiters cared...our FB was 6'0 and 235lbs who was fast and powerful (see my profile) and every college wanted him. He probably ran faster than 4.75, but who knows.

So we'd have some guys run in the low 4.33 range (back in mid 80's)...guys were fast, for sure, four of our guys won the 4x400 state champ in big class, but did not run under 4.4.
