Not saying he's as good as Jalen, but I understand the comparison. Their backup QB, Alex Orji, is from Texas, he's athletic, muscled, 6'3", 236 lbs, and has run a 4.46 40 yd dash, and has a pretty good arm. They're using him as the scout team QB to prepare for Milroe. He's probably about as good a scout team QB to simulate Jalen as you could get. Hopefully, they can't simulate Jalen's acceleration or his deep ball.

He can't pass, but he is big and fast. And of course, Milroe's "official" 40 time is still 4.65 which cannot be accurate but which Michigan fans have been talking about alot.

If Milroe runs a 4.65 I run a 4.2.

I've always wondered what the real time is.

Milroe is sort of a wierd runner. He's usually not in turbo mode. But when he is , he looks crazy fast.

It has to be 4.4 or better.

He runs like Henry. Doesn't look like he's moving all that fast until he's at full stride. If you're going to get him you better do it quick though because once he finds some open grass you're fricked.

With a scout team QB, they don't have to be able to make the throws. If the play is there, they treat it like the defense got beat. If a scout team QB is actually completing big plays in practice, then you're probably fricked when you play the real QB, that or you're staring the wrong QB.

Again if he runs a 4.65 I’m living on the moon next month.
