  1. 4.49 hand and 4.71 fully automatic time are the same. Aphonso's 4.71 was fully electronic at a recent, large event in Texas on a wet surface and it was reported that the times were slower because of this (particularly the first 2 groups of runners no info re what group Aphonso was in).

     

    NFL combine "official" final reported times are based on a hand start/electronic finish method. (hybrid time)

     

    4.59 would be, roughly, Aphonso's 40 converted to NFL combine hybrid time.

     

    Ameer combined at 4.60 ( and scored many firsts and seconds overall in various tests). (Rex 4.73 official combine 40).

     

    4.59 is reported in wikipedia to be the AVERAGE NFL combine time for RB's in the years 2008-2012 (all hybrid method).

     

    Aphonso is certainly fast enough to be a top college and even top NFL runner. He won't be the fastest. But he's fast enough.

     

     

     

    sounds like my wife.. not the hottest but hot enough.......

  2. kid is blowing up!!! love it.. saw that rivals has him him like 48th in CA. don't know why they could not give him that fourth star for pure recognition sake (if he is into that stuff).... but kid has heart... and that hair.. .the kid is gonna score on and off the field for nebraska

  3. doesn't matter what happened to be offered and to do well in these things are a great start and obviously say that the invitees have sort of talent... maybe politics play into everything but i am stoked on the fact the guy is getting love..... then he gets the USC/oregon/UCLA/Alabama/Michigan offer and decommits two weeks before signing day....

  4. Mililani is huge now.. they won the state title beating punahou (in the battle of high school recruiting)... its a pretty shady business it seems down here.... punahou used to be a rich white kids school speckled with asian nerds... football team used to suck.... now they have heavily recruited local poly kids for football with scholarships.... they own many apartments close by that the kids stay at as many live very far away... not to be outdone mililani and coach rod york has poched several kids from local high schools to create his own super team.... now the OIA (league for public schools) has created a rule that kids who transfer have to sit out a year... not sure where this kid is from.. but id be willing to bet his is not from mililani... personally its great to offer these local boys but I'm pretty sure none will ever make it to nebraska....

  5. i haven't really read this thread... but have been watching on BTN... but to me the game seems pretty ho hum... to be it seems like not a lot of energy... just from my perspective.... I'm sure everyone is stoked to be playing but i don't get that crazy pumped up vibe
