People think that youre not considered "fast" unless you run in the 4.3's, which is dumb. 4.45 is really damn fast. Not many guys even in the NFL run 4.3's.

Why did I always perceive Landry as being significantly bigger/taller than Odell?

Didn't Landry run a 4.3 something?

Our LBs in the past been a lil slow & a few RBs. Other than that you don't put as many players in the NFL as LSU if the laser don't like you.

It's because of the inflated numbers people give recruits. Every WR LSU takes runs a sub 4.5

I think both run in the 4.4s. Odell with a 4.45 and Landry with a 4.48.

both of them under 6 feet and over 200 pounds. Now I know why they may be the 2 best pancake blocking recievers in college. There huge

Odell shocks the world and runs a sub 4.4 and landry runs a 4.52.

I'm really curious as to where both of these guys end up and what sort of situations they will find themselves in. Both could be really good at the next level...I don't see either being a number one anywhere (could happen, but not likely), but either could be a very good two or three. And we all know how much they throw the rock around in the league these days...

LaRon ran a 4.35. Or we're you only referring to players everyone thought were fast, and then proved to be fast?

Side note, PP was actually bigger and faster at the Combine than LaRon. Crazy.

If Landry runs a 4.48 he's going in the 1st round

OBJ is not 5'11, and is not 194lbs. Dont care what it says on LSUsports website. When it comes combine time, he wont measure that height or weight. I mea according to that hes only a few LBs lighter than Jarvis and 1 inch shorter. And thats just not true.




Where is my friend KG56995???

Jarvis will run mid to upper 4.5, then officially will be around 4.6...he's very average speed. He has good agility, tough as nails, and great hands. But he was not very fast. It wouldn't surprise me if he was actually even around mid 4.6

I can see this. Although I think OBJ will run a really good time. I've got a feeling he knows how to get out and get up to top speed quickly.
