Well, I don't want anyone to forget how good DW is going to be...but he isn't the 3rd person to do the 260 and sub 4.5 time...he hasn't been to an NFL combine yet, has he?
Your problem is, your comparing 2 different things, from what I have read in this thread...

He was also tall and long.

D White does not have those measurables. He's a bowling ball.

The nfl has the most athletic of cfb players at the combine. Anyway that convo is done. I hope he is as fast as advertized. I concede because its sounding like im shitting on DWhite and he is my favorite incoming freshman.

Yeah size. Being tall isnt really a benefit on the dline. Especially when shedding blocks. Low man wins and the center of gravity is lower. Arm length is an assest though and its rare for shorter people to have long arms.

Dear God! Is there any subject over which LSU fans won't argue? We have these senseless threads that go on for pages just because some guys want to "win" an internet argument. White is a big, fast guy with a bright future. That's the only thing that matters

Check out some of these LHSAA times. White is as fast as these guys. He proved it in track, and at the opening.

Does he run a 4.49 every time?
Probably not

Could it have been one of his fastest runs and a PR? Very possible

But he did run a 4.49 laser timed 40 at over 255 lbs at the opening that day.

Would it be crazy to believe Chark ran a 4.49, what about Guice? Every run is different, but Devin has recorded faster times in the 100 than some of their runs.

If you throw weight out the window, and just looked at a name and his recorded numbers next to guys who can run in the 4.4 range is it that damn hard to believe? To believe that on that day Devin white ran a 4.49

Jesus a 10.73 at 250+ is just unfair

The Opening uses laser 40 times. Devin White ran a 4.49 at the Opening. You're claiming that there's no evidence that Devin White has a documented 4.49 electronic 40. I'll just let this one go, I didn't realize that I was replying to a literal retard

I've seen Devin White many times on the track. It's very odd seeing a guy his size so fast and run the anchor leg on the sprint relays. First time I saw him I thought surely this guy must be a senior. Nope. He was a freshman.

Didn't read this thread but the first person I thought about is White. I don't know if he's 260lbs but he's definitely a big athletic fast LBer...I'm glad they put him there. I think he's going to be a stud.

Yeah. Not believing a 260 lb guy runs a 4.4 means im insecure. My god some of you need to log off and realize that sports message boards arent a window to the soul.

What? Im not the one diagnosing someone because they dont believe a 260lb guy runs a 4.4 dumbass.

He would be the 3rd player ever at his weight to run a 4.4. Saying its bullshite isnt some wild and crazy post.
You clearly are a teenager if you think an opinion on a player's 40 time in any way can give you insight into a poster's personality, sport. Grow up.

Its just like earlier in this thread when you told me to get a grip. I wasnt the one making personal attacks to begin a convo. We were discussing 40 times. I wasnt the one calling the other poster a dumbass. So why did i need to get a grip? Because i gave my opinion on a sports message board?

Clearly you have a solid handle on life. Btw, it doesn't matter what your OPINION is of White's 40 time. He has a 4.4 time on record somewhere but don't let facts get in the way of your whining.

I havent whined about anything. I stated facts about 260lb players at the combine. Nothing i said shows im insecure and at no time did i need to ,"get a grip". We were discussing a lsu player on a lsu sports message board.
Saying someone needs to get a grip because they posted a fact about the nfl combine maybe one of the dumbest posts ive ever seen on here. Its right up there with the assumption that my opinion on a player's 40 time is somehow an insight into my sense of self worth. But hey i wouldnt expect you to understand that.
Loser? Again, log off and rest a bit little guy because youre under some delusion that a sports opinion somehow means youre a loser.

yeah just like all these 40 times that were proven to be absolutely bullshite.
Most 40 times coming out of highschool are a complete joke.

Never said it was serious. You clearly think its serious because you told a poster he needs to get a grip because they posted their opinion on a board that's driven by the opinions of posters. If anyone needed to get a grip its the poster that personally attacked another poster just because of his opinion. But im pretty sure you dont realize that.

RickDaddy, you said long ago you were out of this thread. We're at post number 77 and you're still trying to win some silly internet argument. Can we move on? (I'm guessing you won't).

Maybe I called you a dumbass because you jumped into this thread to be a typical obnoxious know-it-all dickhead when you were 100% wrong, then followed it up by pulling a bunch of excuses and poor logic out of your arse. And on top of that, you've literally done this on a daily basis all summer and yes, it makes you a dumbass. Step away from the computer and give it a break, you ruin every thread that you participate in
