I've attended 8 UM Pro Days....The NFL Scouts I saw..ALL had personal Hand held stop watches...Now granted, we're talking 96-2003....but that's what I saw....I was talking about this very subject with Hester a few months ago...
I speak to Track guys all the time...Im talking coaches etc....They all say most HS programs are in error when using everything from Hand held...to newer means...
