fact,\u00a0those races\u00a0are very close to the 60 yard (almost 55 meters)\u00a0standard baseball uses to time prospects and\u00a0closely mimics the king of all football combine events\u2026the 40

times sort of set the\u00a0top of the\u00a0bar in terms of quantifying football \u201cquickness\u201d and track translation.\u00a0 Ismail and Dunn were both\u00a0small for running backs but\u00a0their pure quickness made\u00a0a big\u00a0difference.\u00a0 For skill players, depending somewhat on\u00a0size,\u00a0anything in the 6.75\u00a0(fully automatic timed)\u00a0range\u00a0is solid and under 6.6 FAT\u00a0is outstanding.\u00a0 \u00a0As for the 60 meter dash consider current\u00a0Florida State wide receiver \/ kick returner <a

that is not a realistic time for most football players anything in 7.3 FAT range is good and around 7.0 FAT\u00a0is outstanding.<\/p>\n<p>The indoor\u00a0hurdles are a bit more track specific in that it usually requires some practice and equipment \/ facilities to become adequate the event is still transferable to football speed.\u00a0 The indoor hurdles can indicate pure speed, coordination\u00a0and determination of an athlete.\u00a0 Rocket Ismail\u2019s brother and Syracuse receiver, <a href=\"http:\/\/citizensvoice.com\/sports\/meyers-track-field-1987-1.1421010\"

style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #0066cc;\">Bo\u00a0Jackson<\/span><\/span><\/a> is believed to have run the 60 yard indoor\u00a0hurdles\u00a0around 7.29 in high\u00a0school, albeit at around 215-220lbs (amazing\u00a0if true). \u00a0Ted Ginn, Ohio State wide receiver \/ kick returner and current NFLer, is an example in the 60 meter high hurdles running in the 7.86 FAT range.\u00a0So these times certainly aren\u2019t the norm but show indoor hurdles can\u00a0be a football\u00a0indicator too.\u00a0 Anything in the area of 8.0\u00a0 FAT for the 55 hurdles is solid for a football \/ track athlete and the 8.4-8.5 FAT range isn\u2019t too bad in the 60 hurdles.\u00a0 Again, consider hurdles is more skill specific than the pure sprints like the\u00a055 and 60 meter dashes.<\/p>\n<p>As for indoor field events and other track events\u00a0those will be covered in later editions of\u00a0this 13 event\u00a0topic\u2026comments, insights and pics\u00a0below are Coach

The 4.45 was not recorded by the scouts because Smith swayed forward on the starting line.<\/p>\n<p>The past six weeks, Smith has worked on his speed and conditioning with Curtis Frye, the UF track team`s sprint coach.
