Stanley Lombardi Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Yes, he is fast. But note that this was a Master's Division race. That wasn't Usain Bolt in the lane next to him. 1 2 Quote
BuffaloRebound Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Haha. Looked like he was racing Rich Eisen. 1 13 Quote

Brand J Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 (edited) I don’t know who the guys are he’s racing against, but I’ll never forget what Marquis Goodwin said, who was a speed demon in his own right. He said that he always thought he was fast, but when he raced against legit track athletes he felt slow. He said as fast as he was, those guys are “on a whole nother level.” It’s scary the divide between guys like Marquis and Tyreek and guys like Usain and Asafah. And just for reference, Bolt’s split at 60 yards was a 6.32, which would’ve smoked Tyreek’s 6.70. Watch Christian Coleman’s 4.12 40 yard dash. 4.12 40 Yard Dash EDIT: Also for reference, Hill’s 6.7 60 yard dash would tie him for the 76th fastest guy in NCAA Division 1 track… this season. The fastest NCAA time this year is a 6.51, so he is at least in the neighborhood of collegiate fast, but not Olympic fast. Edited March 11, 2023 by JayBaller10 12 3 1 Quote

Your Brown Eye Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 I'm not saying he isn't fast, he smoked our secondary during the playoff game two years ago...however...I follow track and field closely, and that race was borderline rigged. The second-place dude is affiliated with the Pony Express Track and Field Club and the third-place is affiliated with the Dayton Track Club. C'mmmmmmmmmmon. He's not racing against elite sprinters in this race, nobody is confusing the Pony Express Track and Field Club and its members with Olympic sprint athletes. Just for reference, he ran 6.70 secs, and got 1st. 2nd got 7.27 secs. http://live.finishtiming.com/meets/514614/events/201/results/F/M He would have gotten 8th place with that time (7th place ran 6.69 secs, 1st place ran 6.53 secs), in the 2023 USATF Indoor Championships held back in February. https://www.flipsnack.com/USATF/2023-usatf-indoor-championships-results/full-view.html The WR, American record in the 60M dash was done in 2018 by Christian Coleman at 6.34 seconds (i.e. an elite sprinter). He could basically smoke Tyreek Hill the same way Hill smoked his "competition". 1 Quote
