Dude, track/football historian here, ok? Little dumb arse kids troll, ok?

Do you really think those chasing Henry are anywhere close to where they were coming out of college in the speed department, come on rookie.

Henry was a 4.54 guy, he actually sucked as a HS sprinter to be honest.

Can you name 3 running backs that guys in the secondary dread tackling more than Henry?

I’ll help a bit. Not on your list but Campbell would be pretty high because he could get low, load up, and deliver a punishing blow with the ball.

Don't need any help slugger

Otis Anderson...bad bad man
John Henry Johnson....broke about a dozen face masks
Mack "The Truck" Lee Hill a monstrosity, he trampled wannabe tacklers, averaged over 5 yards a carry between the tackles.

Avante,

Something slightly off but not major.

Not trying to call you out just want to do my own research.

Could you provide me the link or linkS where you got your info? Mine was from random blog articles that I don’t trust.

This....

Early years
Faulk was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana. He attended Carver High School in the Ninth Ward of New Orleans,[3] where he played for the Carver Rams high school football team. Also a standout track sprinter, Faulk was timed at 10.3 seconds in the 100 meters, 21.74 over 200 meters and 49.4 in the 400 meters.[citation needed] Growing up, Faulk sold popcorn at New Orleans Saints games in the Louisiana Superdome.[4]

...took a few seconds.

All this stuff real easy to find.

I only post in threads that interest me, why not give that a shot, works for me. I hate liver, guess what, I don't eat it.

Sorry you feel that way, oh well.

WTF kind of joyless existence do you have to not appreciate dude feasting in a league that wants no part of that style? By all means though, waste more of your life on it.

It’s your condescending attitude when people question why we are making all these obscure comparisons and cherry picked stats that people don’t like. Keep doing you though

You are trying to make something real easy out to be something hard to do.

Simply Google their names, just that easy.

Tell ya what, Jamaal Charles, be right back.

[link=(Track
Charles was a standout track athlete at Port Arthur (TX) Memorial. In the summer between his sophomore and junior years, Charles won the bronze medal in the 400m hurdles at the 2003 World Youth Championships in Athletics.[12] He went on to win the 110m hurdles and 300m hurdles Texas 5A state championships with times of 13.69 and 36.03 seconds, respectively, his senior year.

On March 11, 2006, Charles placed fourth in the NCAA 60-meter indoor track and field championship finals. On May 14, 2006, Charles captured his first conference title and the third Big 12 100-meter title for Texas by winning the event in 10.23 at the Big 12 outdoor meet. He led the 200 meter race after the preliminary round but elected not to participate in the final, as Texas had the Big 12 team title well in hand. On June 10, at the NCAA outdoor competition, Charles took fifth place in the 100 meter finals, edging out UTEP's stand-out sprinter Churandy Martina (sixth place), who earlier in the year ran a 9.76 (wind-aided) 100-meters. Charles also placed seventh in the 200 meter finals, and ran the third leg of the 4 × 100 Texas Longhorn relay team, earning a fifth place in the finals. Charles's efforts helped the Longhorns earn a third place showing for the men's track and field team, the highest since a second-place finish at the 1997 NCAA finals. Thus, Charles completed his first collegiate track season as a four-time All-American (60m indoor, 100m outdoor, 200m outdoor, 4 × 100 m relay outdoor).)]LINK[/link]

A matter of seconds.

Look, you have how many other threads out there, so why come in here to play crtic. I don't go into threads to be a pest, I go to add on the discussion.

You don't have to be here, so leave.

Or, ya could actually talk about the topic.

Your topic was an obscure data set with a list of familiar names and no context.

Garbage in, garbage out.
