This is as funny as people saying Ford would play in the NFL.

I said has a chance. I didn't say would dipshit. He is a great athlete. There are a lot of former College QB's that have converted to TE, WR and safety over the years. I would say he is and Edelman type of athlete. He will get looked at.

Saying there are a lot shows ignorance. TM has zero chance to make it in the NFL dipshit.
He will get looks. Will he make it? Maybe. Maybe not. People forget that he was a special teams standout his freshman year. He will get looked at and get invited to camps. Not drafted I would guess but invited.The average 40 time for an NFL free safety is 4.53 and strong safety 4.55. Tommy has reported to have been timed at 4.42. He has rushed for nearly 3000 yards and everaged close to 7.0 yards a carry. And he is a winner. That alone will get scouts to look at him. dipshit
To accentuate your point even further, there is some reason to believe that Tommy could exceed that 4.42 number if he runs his best at the combine. According to one report --
[MSU doesn’t run 40s, so the time Housewright provided is more of a projection based on Mellott’s 5+10-yard fly, said MSU head coach Brent Vigen. Mellott ran that 10-yard sprint — which features five yards of build-up — in 1.13 seconds earlier this summer, according to MSU strength and conditioning coach Sean Herrin. Anyone who can clock below 1.2 in the 5+10 has the ability to run faster than 4.4 seconds in the 40, Herrin added.
For comparison, the best 5+10 time recorded by former MSU star and current Atlanta Falcons linebacker Troy Andersen was 1.22 seconds, per Herrin. Andersen went on to post a 4.42-second 40 at the 2022 NFL Scouting Combine.
“In my conversations with several other strength coaches and performance coaches across the country, 1.16 is what a lot of people have said is the fastest time they’ve ever seen,” Herrin said Friday. “1.16 was the fastest time I had ever seen (before Mellott’s 1.13).” ]
And that was last year. Housewright was claiming he could run a 4.3. The NFL is absolutely obsessed with speed, you are right. They were brining in sprinters at times. The Eagles had a guy on the roster that was an Olympic hurdler a couple of years ago, and he had been out of football for a while.
I think he'll absolutely run in the 4.4 range. I haven't seen anyone run him down in the open field in 4 years. I've heard he's the fastest player on the roster.

Well counterfeit Money is stating he runs a 4.3...so there's that.
Yep, I think I said this elsewhere but even our young DB studs from TX and elsewhere, several of which were also track stars agree. Watch any of those interviews. Whenever asked who the fastest on the team is they all say "Tommy".
True, Fastest player in the Big Sky probably, but I have no idea what his 40 time is. One of our TX Freshman DBs ran what I believe was a 10.6 ish 100 in high school last year, and he said Tommy is faster.

If they don't run 40s at MSU, and I assume don't race each other, how would they know who is fastest? And how would anyone know who is the fastest in the Big Sky? Fastest at what? 40's? MSU doesn't run 40's, I thought. I find it funny that you and some Cats frequently say the team is the best, the players are the best, the player is the fastest. Yet, there's often zero actual data or backup.

Don’t all/most schools’ athletes wear those GPS tank tops that track all of their performance metrics?

I personally hope he does if that is his goal. I also hope we shut him down

You tell me. I doubt it.
Housewright said it too, but he was very likely drunk.
House Party was definitely not a fan of 4.3s. Simply not enough ABVs. Took far too many of them and then he get bloated.
I find that with EVERY beer now. Full before drunk.
Hey there! Remember this?
