JT's future role

[Dottie1145]

Where'd you get your info, lol? Remember he was a 100M state track champion in Alabama so speed and acceleration are his high point, especially considering the other athletes he competed against.

He was a lot faster when he stepped on campus than he is now I believe.

Seriously

You are seriously wrong. From our own Ramblin Wreck site: http://www.ramblinwreck.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081313aab.html
"4.21 - His time in the 40
10.79: His State-winning time in the 4A-6A 100 meters as a senior"

We'll see, will you eat crow if I'm right? I will if you are.

Ah ok, so we can completely disregard what you said. It is your opinion, which no standards of speed were ever defined off of. Now JT may have dropped some speed down to a true 4.3 40 time only because he gained muscle mass.

You seriously saw 4.3 speed from him this year?

Several times actually. Long run in the Duke game until he pulled up and grabbed his hammy. Same thing in the bowl game against Kentucky. He OUT RAN people until his hammy gave him issues and that was in pads in game trying to avoid getting tackled. I fully expect his times to be 4.3-4.4 max at the combine if he is just wearing running gear in a track setting. Did you ever see the run against Robert Godhigh that they filmed in the practice facility?

I saw the run against SNODDY, when he got dusted

 

[UgaBlows]

he will be training for the next 2-3 months specifically on getting his 40 time down, imo there's no way he's any worse than 4.3

 

[tech_wreck47]

No way JT was running a 4.3 during the season, if he does at pro day or NFL combine (if invited) it's probably because he's had time to let his body rest, but I still doubt he will run it then. I would say a 4.35 but we should know soon. I could be wrong. I wouldn't be suprised to see a 4.4 either.

Could not remember which is what he ran against but dusted is far from the term I would use considering you could see JT let up in the video.

 

[CuseJacket]

In the history of the NFL combine there have been only 5 players recorded at under 4.3, ever. The fastest being 4.24... Chris Johnson.

12 Fastest 40-Yard Dashes in NFL History

So my guess is JT's 4.21 time was hand-timed. And I'd expect JT to record a better time at GT's proday than he would at the combine, for those thinking about wagering on this.

 

[33jacket]

You guys would be super shocked to find how dumb some coaches truly are. They are just as exposed and subject to the dumb measureable thing fans are.

 

[TampaGT]

Just look at Snoddy's time at the proday. I think it was 4.4ish. With a low of 4.37 to a high of 4.5. I think Jt will be somewhere in that range.

 

[ramblinwreck1378]

Anyone who thinks JT is running a 4.3 at the combine is high. I'd be happy if he broke 4.5.

Also, Cobb was only 5-10 when measured at the combine, an inch taller than the aforementioned height of JT. Not that different.

 

[JacketFromUGA]

Cobb also only played QB 1 year at kentucky. He played WR the rest of the time

Not saying it's a perfect comp. Just a reference point from size, positions played, comparable skill sets, etc.

There is no way in hell JT ever ran a true 4.21. That's obviously hand timed so it doesn't mean much. And he's not going to run a 4.3 at the combine. He's not and never has been that fast.

 

[Oldgoldandwhite]

4.4 is a lot faster than most people think!

 

[Jacket4Life9]

Seriously

4.6? I will be very surprised if he runs anything slower than a 4.5. I'm predicting 4.49 to be exact

Yeah, he never ran a 4.21... I think best case scenario 4.40, which is blazing fast. Worst case, IMO: high 4.5's
