Do I understand correctly that sub 10.5 is world class level? Also....Is that a fucking mullet he is rocking?

Not these days. A 10.20 won't even get you into the NCAA finals and a 10.05 is the qualifying standard for the olympic trials.

Which is nitpicking because a 10.37 is very fast.

Yeah I saw Metcalf ran a 10.37 for olympic qualifyin gand he was last I think. A mullet inhibited LB running 10.37 in HS is pretty damn awesome.

I'm cool with taking a scholarship or two or three every year and dedicating them to guys that run like this.

The actual trials don't start for another month. He's probably hitting the circuit trying to get a good enough time to earn a spot in the trials.

I'd say it's world class for high school kids though.

Yea, it's in the conversation no doubt about that.

Anthony Schwartz 2017 - 2018 GATORADE NATIONAL BOYS TRACK & FIELD PLAYER OF THE YEAR

Schwartz capped his prep career by beating a 100-meter field that included collegiate runners to capture a national title at June’s USATF Junior Outdoor Championships with a time of 10.23

Now he had run faster times than that but at this meet he won it with a 10.23. 10.37 is in that game.

And he should improve that 10.37 with age.

Got offered by Bama and Georgia yesterday. He's so fast, they're willing to take a chance on a kid from Hays, KS. This could be a Larry Bird story in 2040

So...RB potentially? I actually like his offensive highlights as much as his defensive, maybe more.

I think this may be one of those situations where you get him on campus and then decide once you've had time to observe and evaluate him in person.

That was… pretty incredible

Yeah... I saw that and it brought to mind some old Hershel Walker runs.

Let's not forget, this kid supposedly ran a 10.3 something. He might be the most interesting prospect in the class.
