Derrick Henry's not runnin no 4.5.

Finishing third in the SPARQ challenge was Yulee, Florida running back Derrick Henry, a former Georgia commit who recently named Alabama the leader for his services. Henry, a 240-pound jumbo athlete, earned rave reviews for his athleticism at the event after posting a 4.45 forty time and a 42-inch vertical leap, the top mark at the event.

Not saying Henry isn't fast, but a lot of athletes run slower at the combine than they do at the Opening. Landon Collins, for example, ran a 4.42 and won the SPARQ championship, only to run over a tenth slower at the combine at 4.53. He did gain a good bit of weight in college FWIW, but that's just one example.
