It's pretty sad that Adidas uses poor English in an official twitter.

CL8100•99 months

That's not Adidas talking to him. Just some dude in his neighborhood with an Adidas Twitter. Come on you believe that? Do you believe I just jumped out a plane 2 mins ago now I'm streaming the net?

Why does that have to be sad. Damn lighten your life up. People really let trivial stuff bother them.

I would have to imagine this was pre-planned.

Totally agree, sounds scripted. Nice way to gain publicity.

Shiftyplus1•99 months

So why does Addidas talk like an urban youth?

alumni95•99 months

Because the “Get off my lawn!” crowd does little for their bottom line.

xGeauxLSUx•99 months

Donte must be clocking himself close to or beating 4.21 in practice to be that cocky. If not, welp...

QJenk•99 months

Obviously staged, but Im not mad at him. I doubt he gets the record, but go get that money Donte!

ELchapoLSU•99 months

I don’t know why, but this is hilarious to me

DeafVallyBatnR•99 months

Like if he hits 4.22 and Adidas goes nope not fast enough no deal.

bdnc•99 months

He made some great plays for LSU, wish him the best

LSUnibrow•99 months

Hope they don’t throw him the check.

tbabino•99 months

run fast...yes
cover skills...not much

Fa Sheaux Breaux•99 months

"Here is the conversation went..." lol

If Trindon couldn’t do it I don’t think Donte can.

eddieray•99 months

4.32 in Indy

FournetteForEver7•99 months

He wont break the record so doesnt matter

SECSolomonGrundy•99 months

Does anybody think he can break the record? He's fast, but is he that fast?

Lsu101205•99 months

He is fast enough to do it, but it takes more than speed when we are talking about the 40 record. Everything has to be perfect from start to finish. On top of having to be extremely fast.

Four Leaf Tayback•99 months

He’s fast but not 4.22 fast. I think he’ll run between 4.28-4.21

idlewatcher•99 months

Hope he breaks it but it will be razor thin close

CDawson you beat me to it. If it is something an athlete can train and condition to do, Trindon was the first name to pop up in my head. How many attempts do they get?

BayouBengal99•99 months

It was surprise the hell out of me if he broke this record. Not because he can't do it, but bc it would be the most focus this guy has put on any one thing since coming to LSU. He can do it though, I just have to see it to believe it.

BEATbama05•99 months

Most people are more focused when the reward is potentially a multi million dollar contract.
