New Basketball Recruit is a Freak.

Emmanuel Negedu runs a 4.35 40! Remind you this is a 6' 7" 255lbs Forward with a 36" vertical.

I'm guessing that this was quite an unofficial timing method...

I'm honestly kinda shocked that we never got Justin Gatlin to do anything for the FB team.
But yea, if he had any hands at all he could be an antonio gates type. Maybe he will go to the NFL after if bb doesn't workout?

Fair point, he must be pretty fast to even be talking about that kind of number....that's probably true...

Leonard Scott came here as a football/track dual athlete. He was actually pretty effective early in his career.

Speaking of Bolt, 104.5 (Mark Howard) was saying he was at 3.5 seconds at the 40 meter mark. That just doesn't sound true to me, even from Usain Bolt. He could blow by anyone and let the QB air it out and run under the ball with those numbers.

Seriously, hearing that Bolt's 100 meter time translates to a 3.5 40 made me do a double take. I thought I was hearing ESPN wrong and about expected them to predict UT as the next BCS champion.
