Guy seems extremely confident in setting the record in the 40 what are you guys predicting him to run?

He’s very fast in the 60 meter.

Low 4.3's.

Trindon wasn't feeling it that day and ran a 4.34. Donte isn't as fast as Trindon.

Also, its a notoriously slow track isn't it?


ETA:

For reference, Trindon was the NCAA Champion in the 100 meter and his strength was his get-off with his short legs.

To this day I have no clue how he didn't go faster. I thought he'd break the record for sure.

Donte has a PR in the 60m of 6.63. Trindon's PR in the 60m is/was 6.54. Trindon ran a 4.34 at the combine. I feel like Trindon was capable of posting a better time, but he chose not to run again at pro day, so who knows. I think Donte is probable capable of running in the high 4.3s but, as we've all seen in the past, players sometimes run slower in Indy.

He'll face plant, get back up, finish with a 7.58 and still talk smack because he finished.

He may be taking the approach of:
1) if I break it, it’s a big payday
2) any publicity is good publicity.

I ran a 4.8 in college my senior year so I'm no expert on speed but I've heard team
mates claim in runs a sub 4.3. I'll guest 4.29

He's apparently run a 4.24 recently. I don't remember where.
