In 20 years, will we be considering this guy one of greatest athletes of all time? Maybe, maybe not, still awesome that he’s a Dawg! What’s the ceiling for this caliber athlete at this age?! He’s amazing! Wish we could send him on a streak pattern for Jake! Against bama!

He fast
If he doesn't know how to block, it will never happen. /s
Is he enrolled yet?
How did he get that fast?
No I really meant just one play. One route. Against bama. No need for blocking. I really don’t think he would ever want to play football. He’s going to win medals and make millions in endorsements without ever having to take a hit. Just one streak. For the natty..
donm bro that made me laugh out loud.
The kid is in such phenomenal shape he could run 3 to 4 fly patterns back to back
Jam him at the line and he's toast. His skill requires ideal conditions. As a sprinter, you know exactly what every one of your competitors will do. Nobody gets in your way. Nobody is trying to hit you or scream in your face or threatening to hurt you. You run straight...no cuts, curls, or sudden stops. And, at the end you don't have to try to catch an oblong ball being hurled at you. Elite track guys rarely work out in football.
You're probably right. I am not putting a lot of thought into it, but...
Herschel Walker was an elite track guy...
...worked out fine. Just saying...
He was struck by a bolt of lightning which connected him to a mysterious source of power known as the 'Speed Force'. Or was it that he was working in his high school chemistry lab when he inhaled some hard water vapors?
HW was fast for a football player, but he wasn't in danger of making the US Olympic team in the 100. I can see Boling being the US star sprinter in the next Olympics.
Herschel finished 7th in the 100 meters at NCAA's.
He finished second in a 60-yard indoor event with a time of 6.12. Carl Lewis was a 6.02 and set the world record. In 1982 he ran a 10.23 100 meter dash... which put him at #23 in the world that year. The #5 time was 10.11. The fastest that year was 10.00 (by Carl Lewis)
Herschel... had he focused on track and run at a much lighter weight than the 215-220 he competed at, might have been at an olympic level.
Herschel really was an elite Track guy. For comparison Bo Jackson's best 100 meters was a 10.44.
something similar happened with that bro that got bit by a spider and then was able to shoot webbing from his wrists.
So you’re saying he was a animal
