    2022 WR Erriyon Knighton

    I was a high level sprinter and I’ve seen so many guys run crazy times at a young age then never break through to the next level. He’s different and I’m happy I was wrong. As a black man I’m happy to see him succeed and as a American who loves track, I’m happy we finally have a guy that can...

    2022 WR Erriyon Knighton

    I said highly unlikely. But I also said I’m rooting for him. I was wrong the kid is the exception not the rule. I hope he kicks *** and helps the US win some gold medals. He’s clearly that dude!

    Good lord man you are helpless lmao. I never said anything about someone situation being bad. I said family situation meaning the family obviously thought it was in everyone’s best interest. I know nothing about professional track though apparently... My college sprint coach is one of two...

    2022 WR Erriyon Knighton

    Lol I’ve always said I wish him the best. You think I’m a hater because he signed a contract for how much? Our definition of MF money is completely different lol and that’s okay. I hope he succeeds! I’m never going to root against a kid ever. Family situations can dictate decisions. But don’t...

    Lol okay don’t listen to the guy who’s ran 10.3 in 100 and is friends with multiple Olympians both past and present Because I’m a hater haha. I’m a grown man with a great career. I want nothing more than kids to be successful. I just hate when they have idiots like you in their life telling...

    2022 WR Erriyon Knighton

    Great point about appearance fees. That’s what I’m saying Anthony Schwartz ran the 5th fastest US high school time ever. He thought he was the biggest and baddest then at the Junior World Championships he was upset by some random dude. Schwartz was a good as high schooler but nothing crazy...

    2022 WR Erriyon Knighton

    There’s no hate at all bro. I’m a fan of him and the sport. If you don’t wanna hear the truth that’s fine. 10.29 ain’t sh** in 100 and 20.33 isn’t making any Professional US teams. For his age both times are elite but there are no age groups in professional track. He has to lineup and beat Noah...

    2022 WR Erriyon Knighton

    There are no guarantees in sports. His film is solid for his age. But a decision has to be made. If the goal is to run track professionally then you’re betting on yourself to become the fastest person in the world. You never know what that may mean in track. That could literally mean you need to...

    2022 WR Erriyon Knighton

    The way I look at it is the only people who make true money in track are the equivalent of the All-Pro NFL players. Hall of Fame type individuals. Last thing I’ll say about this. Tyreke Hill ran 10.19 and 20.1 in high school. He’s widely regarded as the fastest person in the NFL. He ran in...

    2022 WR Erriyon Knighton

    Wouldn’t it be equally as hard to make & stick in the NFL? Just to provide context. I was a 100m sprinter in college, 4x All Big 12. Both my coaches were olympians and I have a network of numerous elite profession track athletes both past and present. I think it’s easier to make the NFL at 6’3...

    2022 WR Erriyon Knighton

    It’s so hard to make it to the olympics as an American sprinter. This kid has all the potential in the world but he’s still a long ways away from cashing in Olympic dreams. Being in high school he doesn’t have to worry about this for a long time but it’s virtually impossible to be a serious...

    2022 WR Erriyon Knighton

    20.33 is fast as **** for any age. That time guarantees you an all American spot in college and depending on the year would challenge for 1st. To see him do that at 15/16 is simply sensational. His long speed is unreal. 10.45 is an elite time for his age. But that 200 is a grown man time... most...

    Elite speed don’t see a ton of 20 point 200m runners that can actually play football. Can’t pass on speed like that especially at 6’3
