Beau Hoge thread and perhaps a Detmer thread

Usain Bolt doesnt play defense. He is more of a role player for the Jamaican national team.

To me a prime time player can do the steeplechase in a pinch.

we obviously disagree on our definitions of "prime time player."

Consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.

lol. Lay off guys- he's not illogical-- just a free thinker!

Taysom isn't one of BYU's "better athletes". He is an all-time athlete freak of nature for BYU. Why not compare Hoge to other passing QB's?

Steve Young was faster than Taysom IIRC.

No way.

Steve Young was faster than Taysom IIRC.

Whoa. I don't recall that. They seem pretty comparable in my mind. Taysom is much stronger than Young was too.

Steve Young was definitely more elusive but not as straight line fast as Taysom.

I have never heard Taysom's 40 time, but in Steve's prime he ran about a 4.35. Here is a link supporting that.

But other links show a 4.53. The time I remember from college pro day was a 4.43.

[Omaha 680]

Not buying Steve Young at 4.35 unless it was a very generous hand timed 40. In the 2015 combine only 5 participants ran 4.35 or better. The fastest QB was Marriota at 4.52.

That may or may not be an apples to apples comparison.
