It was Devin & santana literally 2 minutes apart. Darrell green was one fast *** lil dude though. Knowing him and how seriously he took his workouts I'd bet if you lined him up today he'd still smoke 85% of the league

Green won every fastest man contest they threw at him. Against Olympians, even.

Are you really trying to say Bo Jackson wasn’t fast?

Guy accelerated around a corner better than anyone I have ever seen on a football field.

Nah. That's not what hes saying. Buddy just went all in on bo this and that and is some hit who knows nothing but fairy tales about him. He was just saying at they weights froggy takes him. Me I just said I agree it would be one **** of a race and would in all likelihood have different results most times they'd strap them on. Not taking anything away from either though.

Never implied that....All I've said from the get go, is that if Shipman was Destroying peeps who ran 4.3s consistently...then why couldn't he beat Bo in a 40 on turf??...And please spare that 4.13 BS.....I ain't buying it...

You guys can have your shipman debate. Not sure the point of it. He was fast. Bo was fast. Very different types of speed. Bo got fast faster than anyone. He could go from moving to gone on a football field better than anyone I’ve ever seen play the game. That doesn’t mean his top speed was what some of these other guys had. (It wasn’t, IMO.). Even at 40 yards, Bo’s advantage was the first 20, IMO.

Again...Do Not care...I'll say it again...Froggy was Trouncing the Fastest Canes that Ever played at UM....Guys that ran 4.3s on a regular Basis....Tana was the Big East 55meter indoor Champ...You cannot imagine the Speed at UM then....We had a plethora of 4.3...4.35...& 4.4 guys...NONE of them could touch Shipman...It was daily conversation at Greentree about Froggy's Speed....Ask people who played at UM....Ask @dsddcane who was Fast af in his own right...

I will take bo exploding away from people over anyone I ever saw on a football field. People are overdoing the shipman thing in any case. He’s not even a footnote in nfl history. Shipman‘s longest run at UM was 82 yards, against GA Southern. Bo is (or was, don’t know anymore) the only player in NFL history with 2 runs of 90+ yards from scrimmage. And he did that in like 35 games.

There are plenty of fast guys who never made it in football. Shipman ain’t the only one and he ain’t the fastest of them. He was an elite speed fast guy. No particular reason anyone here is even talking about him.

You sound like Baron Munchausen telling his old geezer friends about his youth. Truth be told, you sound a bit like LaVar Ball telling folks he coulda beat Jordan 1-1. You can know whatever you want to know. It makes zero difference. On the football field, the whole world knows what Bo Jackson was, and did, and only a few guys clinging to personal memories even understand why you’re talking about Froggy.

You’re triggered. Who cares if it was 4.13 or 4.23? You’re lost in the weeds here. You have never seen a better athlete in your life and if you don’t know that, I’m sorry.

Match him stride for stride in practice. Probably the fastest dude ever to step foot on greentree.

RIP
