He's a ridiculous athlete. At 235 lbs he should not be able to be so fast.

Photo from the meet. This was right before he embarrassed the field on the second leg of the 4x100m relay. He ain't suspect.

Edit: here's a video of the race It's almost comical how a guy that huge moves on the 2nd leg.

Before it is all said and done, I hope we can mention him in the same breath as Bo Jackson and Herschel Walker. Those are probably the 2 best running backs ever to play in the SEC, and his physique is eerily similar in a Greek god sort of way.

I hope you know a meter is longer than a yard

I also hope you know that you probably should look at the intervals rather than the average time

I know a few recruiting analyst were saying he lacks elite speed, I think Rivals Mike Farrell was one. I remember Espns Tom Luginbill saying he was a Gurley/Marshall combo, referencing he had both size and breakaway speed.

I know there's some depth perception in that picture but his arms look as big as his teammates legs

I hate the sports science crap most of the time... But I wanna know what kind of power and force LF can produce. A guy that size running that fast at that age. Just not normal. Freak of nature.

I hate the guy hosting it more than anything

I do like it when they have some freak nfl guys on there like AP. But some of the things they do on there don't interest me at all. I don't need a sports science on why Seattle has the loudest stadium or anything like that.

Damn LF is flying. Sorry about barging in on y'all, but regardless of the colors he wears, I'm still looking forward to seeing LF play. How fast would that theoretically make his 40 if 200 meters = 218.7 yards?

Fournette is at least 225-230 and all these other dudes are scraping 180 and below, and he is just flying past them.
