Probably. He can certainly run a “go” route. But he hasn’t played football since high school. And he’ll be 26 in November. |

Dude wasn't even out of breath at the end, smh. I love the Olympic sports, in many ways they are the most fun to watch and the most beautiful, and the most meritocrat. Its a shame that greed and TV Networks will kill them at the college level  |

Good call...a bit of a slow reaction time and a bigger headwind than the 12.80 time...coulda/shoulda/woudlda had it en.wikipedia.org/wiki/110_metres_hurdles |

Still waiting for them to come back all of the way. It is still sad that that happened and that it now will not probably not be rectified anytime soon. |
