Sauce Garder’s 40 time coming out of highschool was 4.74 and he did quite alright for himself I’d say.

247

If you’re going to make this post may as well mention or link his 40 time.

HS 40 times aren’t real

His game speed is legit

Toviano ran a 4.8 40 in the spring.

Unless he is one of the guys who lose no speed in pads, he will have to play safety with that speed.

He plays faster than that is the point. I don’t know if he had a bad day or what.

Jerry Rice said he didn’t know how to run the 40 coming out of college, hence the infamous 40 time at the NFL combine. After watching Toviano’s game film, he’s definitely faster than 4.8.

Naw, we need safety’s too if he struggles on the outside he’s 6’0 185- 190 now. I don’t think we had a sub 4.5 guy that played this year in all honesty. None of them looked like burners…

We have a bunch of guys who can go both ways. I love what House is putting together! With the transfers were are looking at picking up, it should blend really well. Some guys will have to grow up quickly.

Was recorded at 21+ mph in a game this season

Watch his offensive highlights if you need to verify. Kid has juice and is fluid in coverage

Looked like a track star for the bama game.

I won’t forget that.

If that is an accurate time, yes. Did he camp at LSU? How did he get a 4 star rating if that time is accurate. I don't think that you can increase a 4.8 to 4.4 or even 4.5. I would be hesitant to offer at that position with that speed.

If you only knew some guys real 40s it would surprise you. Always slower than you think

That's NFL CB speed. He will do fine at either spot if true.

Some guys don’t run well in a track setting but have elite “in game” speed. I wouldn’t sweat it too much.
