Years ago, a reporter in the Greensboro area asked my HS Coach about our team's 40 times. He wanted to play up the athletic difference between our opponent and us. We were about to play the state's top ranked 2A team that included some D-1 prospects (none of us were). When asked how fast his players were.... coach simply responded, "as fast as they need to be". IIRC, we beat them 23-0 and allowed them less than 150 yards of offense.
You need to be "fast"... football fast. Jennings wasn't track fast... but it didn't keep him from getting behind secondaries or getting YAC's.
