What was Bo Jackson's 40 time?

Something that was hand timed. Prolly like 4.3 flat is my guess

Hand timed 40's are of equal accuracy compared to watching them and guessing.

This. No hand timed 40, even today, should ever be taken seriously.

Bo did not run a sub 4.2. Deion did not run a sub 4.4 going backwards.

I don't know. And as a UGA fan, I still say he has my tremendous respect as an athlete. I watched him hit a baseball at the UGA field that hit the top of the outfield lights and it was still on its way up when it hit. Bo was truly an amazing athlete.

When he played for the Raiders on Tecmo Super Bowl he ran a sub-4.0 without doubt.

Fastest player ever. I once had over 600 yards rushing with him when I was a kid. Beast.

Get out with your facts. Get out.

Even with Bo's amazing speed, he still had to zig-zag in Techmo Bowl for a touchdown.....

you do know the hand timed 40 was not done by AU coaches, dont you

Yes Auburn has 2 of the fastest people in the world on their 2014 football roster.

It's impressive.

Well, all of that zig-zagging was clearly not necessary.

You should not that he ran almost 50 yards from one sideline to the next along the goal line and the defense STILL could not catch him.

Tecmo Bowl Bo was the fastest player ever.

And, yes, you had to zig-zag with everyone until you could get the defense (who was always technically faster than you) to dive aimlessly at where you used to be on the field.
