Two that though not the fastest but still dang fast and unreal size... Derrick Henry and Barkevuous Mingo. To have someone to be the size of a LB rush end and run a 48 400... Crazy

Never saw Dione play football.. But I did see him play baseball and run the 4x400 relay ... During the baseball game

Bo Jackson.
If he got a step he couldn’t be caught.

Leonard Scott. He had world class speed.

When he played for Tennessee there were literally only 3 or 4 other people on the planet that had his speed.

Saw Vincent Jackson score from 60+ in the 1986 Cotton Bowl. Fastest person I have seen in a uniform.

Fastest guy on the field I've ever seen would be either Trindon Holliday, or Xavier Carter. I think I would give it to Carter; he was mostly just a track guy, but he did smoke some defense back in 2007 on a bomb, and it was like WOW he's fast.

Underrated contender would be Devery Henderson.

“Bo Jackson…if he got a step on you he couldn’t be caught.”

The rematch of Auburn in Austin in 1984 is known for Jerry Gray taking Bo Jackson out of the Heisman Trophy race. Jackson broke free and raced down the east sideline at Memorial Stadium when Gray ran him down and in the process Jackson separated his shoulder. The basically ended Jackson's junior season. He looked Jerry up after the game to assure him he considered it clean hit.

Trindon Holliday. I was at the Arkansas/LSU game in LR back in 2006. McFadden was no slouch, but damn Holliday was fast.

Jeff Demps or Trindon Holliday.

My mortal senses weren’t fine tuned enough to tell which was faster. Probably Demps
