[The Contrarian]

Skyles deadlifts 500, and benches 385 (both lifts are on youtube) he works out with 450 on squats at 5 reps each set of 3. I don't think he has tried for 500 on squat ,yet but he hasn't maxed out. As for the 4.3 in the 40, his official time in the 40 is a 4.44, that was last june at Marshall. Some coaches have clocked him in at 4.37 , but nothing is official until it is done at a respected combine, or recruiting camp. Don't know if that will help Mr. Slate on WHATEVER. The lifting part, there is no doubt about that, but the 40 times will always be subjective to who times them . KP lasered at 4.52 last year and that is extremely fast.

A 4.3. I say no way. There are pro football players that are not that fast. must be a 30 yard dash

As is mentioned in quote above, 4.44 was timed at Marshall in June 2010. I had never heard the 4.3, but anything can get started, whether true or untrue. As was also mentioned, the timing is extremely subjective.

You know, though, what truly counts is how this young man performs on the football field. But I guess it's a lot of fun to banter around the various 40 times of the backs that are fast.
