I think we might be ok at corner. Safety is a big question.

I think you are mixing up our white backup qb's.

you can clearly see #10 in the drills. pittman even mentioned how he made some good throws. 8:39 mark.

Those C/Kades come at you real fast.

Sounds like we got the S&C situation straightened out. Landon Jackson up to 283 from 238. Ran 20.4 mph. 60 % of the team ran 20. 5 ran 22 mph included  two of our receivers.

So is "mph" the new metric?   Is it going to be discussed as much as "velo" is in baseball?

I guess so. First time hearing for me too

It's really not terribly impressive. A typical alligator can run up to 30 mph hour. We will get swamped.

Telling us how many guys we have going 21-22 mph is meaningless unless we know how fast they guys on other teams are running. 

If we have six guys at 22mph and Alabama has 42, it doesn't bode well for us obviously.

We'll never get pulled over in Johnson for speeding; so, we got that going for us.

Something doesn't seem right.

Landon Jackson runs 20.4 mph which when converted means he runs a 9.7 yps 40 time.  

https://www.kylesconverter.com/speed-or-velocity/miles-per-hour-to-yards-per-second

Googles says that the average 40 time for a defensive lineman is in the 5 seconds range.

He seems slow but then this website says his 40 time is 4.95 seconds.

So, looks like another meaningless made up stat.

Obviously you don't instantly get up to speed while running a 40.

Linemen don't run 40's in games very often.  I would think shuttle runs and the like would be more important for them.

I hope we have no more than a couple plays all year where we need a DL to chase somebody 40 yards.  Hopefully somebody else will usually be in the way.

and I starting hearing the MPH brags with GT a year or 2 back.  We still sucked.
Splash 11! drop ABE track, too confusing

Yep top speed means little for football if they are giving a guy 800m to get to 20 mph.

This recent data may be meaningful if they've been tracking it for a long period of time. It may be fluff to put out for preseason hype.

I think we should all agree that it is fucking stupid.  But that is just me.

Why should it matter?  If you go to a game at that Dump, you are a traitor to the cause.
