Troy Anderson is a linebacker too.
Do you think he doesn't know how fast he's run?

Took the 10.50 right from his track bio on athletic.net (see the link I posted). Maybe Omaha,com isn't right, and someone just took that number and ran with it for the bio.

From the athletic.net link, it looks like Vince ran a 10.87 as a junior, and a 10.50 as a senior.

Actually, upon rereading the omaha.com wording, it says he ran a 10.87 'last year' (I.e., his junior year), so maybe omaha.com wasn’t wrong after all, just that it didn't include his senior year in track.

Do you think 45 and his family have never looked at his bio? He’s been at UM 2 seasons.

From his UM bio, it says he ran 10.87. I will stick with his bio. You can use what you want and I don’t doubt your research. Why don’t you talk to UM sports info to correct?

It’s being a prick to cite his UM bio?

No, you were being a prick in the way in which you did so. But I suspect you knew that.

Look in the mirror. Nothing prickish was said. Not even close. Feel free to look at my post and explain what is prickish.

I guess my point it this -- Do the players write the bios, or does someone from UM sports information? If it's the sports info office (which I suspect--they're too uniform in style to be written by individual players), maybe they relied on the omaha.com article without actually checking his track meet times directly.
And I doubt the players are terribly concerned about what gogriz says on their bio about what their 100 time was.
Oh, yeah, I buried the lede--here's a link to the Nebraska state high school activities track and field page for the 2022 state championship results, in which Vince ran a 10.63 to finish 3rd, just as I said above. He ran the 10.50 at districts, as noted in the Athletic.net track page for Vince cited above (probably the week before).

And my bigger point was this...probably the fastest player on the team (for 100 meters, anyway) is a linebacker. Which is pretty amazing.
And after watching a video or two of him running track (I watched them a couple of years ago, when he was just being signed), he didn't look lightning fast in the first 40 meters, but he came on like a freight train in the back half--kinda scary, to be honest. He's that kind of fast--beast mode.

Oops, I missed another clear indicator of Vince's best time.
On the Nebraska high school activities track results page for the 2022 state championships that I cited above, in the top section it clearly states that Vince has a seed time (for seeding into the preliminaries, apparently) of 10.50 -- his districts time, as noted on the Athletic.net site.

Kids and their parents look at stuff like that frequently. Did you or your kids play college sports. I told you previously that I was fine with your research. Did you not read that? Do you not understand these words of mine? " I don’t doubt your research." You don't have to convince me; you need to convince gogriz.com and the Univ. of MT.
Why are you mucking up this thread on Gillman's brother? Let us know when 45 runs a 4.37 40.
