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?

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

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.

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

So why does Addidas talk like an urban youth?

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

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

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

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.

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