If I am not mistaken Tim Dwight's was faster, as he was a world class track athlete.



Well Goodwin and Trindon Holiday are world class track athletes and had around 4.34's.

In that same breath, Chris Johnson would get beaten relatively easy in track terms by those guys in 100m.

Tim Dwight did the combine in 98. Official combine stats started in 99.

Unofficial combine time for Tim Dwight: 4.63

The comment was about a white person so the rules of racism do not apply here.

dude.. 4.34 combine.. and he is white? Thats fast as all get out. I'd have never thought that, but I still remember him running away from some hog safeties this year.

Agreed. I don't care how many five star receivers we get, Swope was a beat all four years he was here, and his experience will be sorely missed. We might have the the best receiving recruiting class in the nation, but I believe it will not be as good as last years simply because Ryan was such a special player.

What are you talking about? That's fast as frick. I was a fast white boy, but I could never run a 4.3. That's world-class speed.

You do realize that he wasn't even our leading receiver. Mike Evans, a redshirt freshman, led the team with 1105 yards to Swope's 913.

I just bought the url for whiteboyswithfast40s.com

Sort of has a ring to it. It will show every white player who has ever run a sub 4.6. Already signed Under Armour as sponsor.

Why does his skin color matter?


Many African Americans have a larger number of fast twitch muscle fibers due to native heritage and selective breeding during the slave trade, especially in their quads and calves. This allows elite level black athletes to, on average, run faster and jump higher than their white counterparts of similar build and training.

Can't argue with genetics, but you'll get shite-kicked if you do. Still way too few fast white boys. I think they just don't work at it enough. Run with truck tires strapped to your back. Do high rep squats. Sprint bleachers.

It's not hard. White dudes just can't be lazy because genetics put us at a disadvantage.

Phil Fulmer, 40 yards away from Krispy Kreme when the Hot Now sign comes on.

He will be sorely missed. Look for him to shine in the NFL, ALA NE Pats.

That's fast but I think Don BeBe has the fastest official 40 time ever.
