Quote:I'm not going to hold you to that. But just keep in mind he wanted to play for Mack Brown at the university of Texas, and they would only recruit him as a CB. Running a forty between 4.40 - 4.49 is not out of the realm of possibility.

No it is not. Remember the Duke Bowl game at the beginning of the 4th quarter, Texas A&M had driven to the Duke 3 yard line. Anyone who has ESPN GO can verify this. Manziel gets the ball hiked to him at the 9 yard line. Duke's SS Jeremy Cash is shadowing him from just inside the goal line. Manziel takes the snap and bolts directly for the left sideline cone. Cash's line toward the cone is straight. Manziel's is a diagonal from the 9. Manziel beats him there for the TD as both go flying over the barricade. Then runs across the field to pump up the defense. Jeremy Cash runs a 4.59 and has run as low as 4.50. And Johnny had to run farther. There can be no argument. He has great speed with full pads.
