19 yr old long jumper nearly jumps out the box

[Trill Clinton]

Props to cantthinkofanything for telling me about this kid 3 years ago. You know what you're talking about when it comes to track and field. Most people are stuck in the past but you're on top of all the hidden talent and current athletes around the world. Salute.

[DPG21920]

That was one of the most incredible things I’ve ever seen an athlete do

[Darth_Pelican]

Thank you SFS for letting us know about this guy :tu . You take track & field knowledge to another level.

[Spurminator]

That was awesome. Too bad about the shitty music bed covering up the play by play.

[pgardn]

Avante MIA per usual.

[DJR210]

SpursforSix (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=49684) spot on with his track and field knowledge per usual :tu

:toast to Spurstalk's go to source for track and field knowledge

the music tho

[Avante]

The most remarkable leap in history is Bob Beamons 29-2 plus in 1968. Keep in mind at that time the WR was 27ish, so to make that HUGE an inprovement was.....WOW~~~ The track world was stunned.

You saw the Cuban kid jump 29 and it's a wow, now imagine this some 50 years ago.

If SFS actually knew track there is no way in hell he can talk a 19.5-20.5 200m for a middle school, that is humanly impossible.

A few long jump tid bits....

Silvio Cator a Haitian soccer player was the first 26 footer, talking 20's.

Jesse Owens 26-8 WR in the 30's stood for over 20 seasons, the guy who broke it was Ralph Boston, also the guy who held the record that Beamon's remarkable jump broke.

Eric Metcalf that speedy Browns RB was a 27-8 jumper while at Texas and no NFLer has ever jumped further. At least a dozen over 26 feet NFLers. His dad Terrry who was an even better NFL RB was a 25-10ish jumper while at Long Beach State (Cards)

Baseball legend Jackie Robinson was a 25-10ish long jumper at either Pasadena City or UCLA. His older bro Mack (Oregon) won the silver at those 36 Berlin Olympics,, right behind Jesse Owens.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~

You guys try so hard to give SFS props while booing Avante, yet everybody saw what happened in a leget trivia contest thread, yep, your boy ran.

Everyone who follows track knows about Echevarria, and I don't buy SFS does.

By the way, the kid jumped 28-11 just a week ago.

[Avante]

Speaking of teenagers who shocked the track world.

Betty Robinson was only 16 when she became the first female to win the Olympic 100m, this was 1932.

Baker HS footballer (avg 13 yards a carry) Houston McTear tied the 100 yard WR record of 9.0 as just a junior.

At the 1924 Olympics GB tried to get cute by using their Olympic 100m gold medalist Harold Abrahams on the leadoff leg of the 4x1, yep....get a big lead. NY HS kid Francis Hussey was only there to leadoff the USA 4x1 team, yep....he blew Abrahams away, giving the USA a solid two meters advantage, and that's what we won by.

In 1954 Alameda HSer James Jackson ran a 9.4 100 yards, that was the fastest time ran in the Nation, nobody at any level was faster.

So many interesting stories in track, so many amazing athletes.

Who knows the Stella Walsh story?

[Avante]

Avante MIA per usual.

Avante has posted what.....100...posts all.....SFS how about you vs me in track trivia, now it's....MIA....hahahaha~~~~~~~~~~~~~

SFS let's do this, ok? You ask me a question and I ask you a question, whoever gets the most right....WINNER. Why are you so afraid to compete...well? Hell, ya must know the long jump to know about this kid three years ago. So talk to me about those 27 footers in NFL history....ok?

Long jump...pit..ok? Not...box.


And didn't I just talk the current NCAA's even predicting new records in the 4x1/4x4? I said Michael Norman will do something big.....yep, new NCAA record.

Stuck in the past..???



Keep an eye on HSer Anthony Schwartz, ah......black sprinter.



I aked SFS


Dude, ya don't look for results to meets you plan on watching on TV, ok? The meet will be on ESPN in a few hours.

Now, give us your EXPERT opinion on what we can expect to see.

Do you see Houston and USC breaking the NCAA records in the 4x1 and 4x4?

What about Michael Norman?

What can we expect in the mens 100m?

Talk to us about that HBCUer who shocked everyone.


The boy posted this....

And by the way...I doubt I'll watch much of it all. I put too much value on my time than to waste it watching track and field.

Another thread derailed by Avante; always seeking validation that he knows track & field, when SFS has continuously shown his superiority in the subject. Go ahead and reply by giving us your fake resume and listing some googled statistics.

I posted about this in another thread and you completely ignored the feat. Started rambling on about dem blues...

Beamon at altitude? How does altitude give one an advantage in the long jump? And since you might be able to answer this try the next question mr. track wannabe.

Then, why must any runner accelerate on a turn?

Everyone beat you you to this 19 yo.
You are lost.

This thread is about teenage track exploits, right?

[Avante]

Thanks for the history lesson avante. But how about some up and coming athletes? CTOA is on another level when it comes to T&F

Why ignore what I said about those NCAAers?

So I care about the history of it....only? That make any sense to you? I follow all of it and have made that very clear.

How many times have I posted HS lists showing SFS what a 19.5-20.5 really is at a young age?

[Spurtacular]

Should've cleared the box. He could've Reggie Bush'd it and got about $12 M on an injury settlement.

[Avante]

He'll be Googling furiously for the information you just requested on up and coming athletes.

Dude, TRACK & FIELD MAGAZINE...since 1966...ok? Been to over 1000 track meets. Can talk pre1900.

You really can't see my interest in the sport?

Dude, here are those 26 and beyond NFL long jumpers.

Bo Roberson Cornell/Raiders the 1960 Oly silver medalist, and the first speedy Raider.
Vnce Johnson Arizona/Broncos
Eric Metcafe Texas/Browns....his 27-8 the best by any NFLer
Latin Berry Oregon/Rams
James Lofton Stanford/Packers

[Avante]

Went to my first track meet at around 8/9 (late 50's) it was in Bakersfield. I saw the great Jamaican sprinter Dennis Johnson*** who ran on the local JC, obviously I didn't know who he was back then. Actually his legend came later.

In 1966 I discovered...Track & Field News Magazine over at a friends house, his father was our track coach. Been getting my monthy issue ever since, do the math. So it broke my heart when they dumped the mag to go strickly online.

There is nobody anywhere who knows more about the past, present and future of the athletes involved in the sport, IF...taliking the sprints, hurdles, long jump. I am THE guru there and can prove it.

*** one of the first great sprinters for San Jose State ( a school known for speed) he would run the WR 9.3 ...4 times in a couple months.

**** This is what seperates Avante from everybody else.

Ken Thomas was avout as wide as he was tall (kidding) a safety on that SJS football team. He was also a 10.0m sprinter and the younger bro of Rams RB Jewerl Thomas, they were out of nearby Hanford. Ken ended up with the Chiefs, they wanted to make a RB out of him which made sense with his size/speed combo. Well he banged up a knee and there went his football career.

Ike Thomas the youngest bro was a red haired black cat who couldn't stay off the drugs, the belief was he was the best athlete in the family.

[Avante]

Love these track threads, love to show off.

Everybody knows about Al Davis's thing for speed, and he got it right, nothing beats team speed.

Only Avante can do this.

The first speedy Raider was Irving "Bo" Roberson a 1960 Olympic long jump silver medalist out of Cornell, he also was a 9.5 (have read 9.4) sprinter, he played WR.

Warren Wells out of Texas Southern was a great long ball receiver, he was why Lamonica was called "The Mad Bomber". Wells was suppose to be a 9,4 cat, and wile I've never seen that in print, yep, he had that kind of speed. Was busted for drug sales....what a shame.

Colorados Cliff Branch missed making our 72 Olynpic team by................................................ ..................that much, he was a World class sprinter, running a sizzlin' 9.2 numerous times.

Now add....

There are countries that can't compare to that.

[Avante]

Nothing funnier than watching people totally freaking out simply because a guy knows track. Hahahahaha~~~~~~~~:blah
Watch this...

SFS talk to me about what happened once black sprinters were allowed to compete for southern (other than HBCU) schools? Who were the first to make an impact?

All of us true track gurus are well aware of how all that went, now watch your boy do.......nothing/zero/0. Why....yep, he don't know shit.

[pgardn]

You completely missed this kid and SF6 bagged him.

So you go on about the NCAAs when we got a 19 yo phenom brought to us by no other than SF6.
You have no clue what he just did and not at altitude but slightly wind aided. None. You don’t get it.

No wonder you miss all the middle school and HS phenoms. You are out of the loop since you can’t mimic Track and Field message board cause they threw your ass off.

Dude, are you retarded? You have any idea at all just how many stud tracksters are out there right now? So I'm suppose to talk Cuban long jumpers...to who?

You really can't figure this out, really? Now think stupid, since I did post at Track & Field News don't you think I also was a subscriber? And, ya can still read what's going on banned or not. And what got me banned was belittling female track with.....HS boys would destroy World Class females. That was a no no.

So I post there but don't know track, hahahaha~~~~~~~~ So why am I there?????

Dude, talk about the athletes, the performances, that is what fans care about, NOBODY gives a damn about all that stupid shit you bring up, ok?

SFS talks about middle school kids running a 19.5-20.5 that right there tells us he don't know shit about track. You know that is impossible....right?

Now I need you to start talking about the athletes, got it?

I constantly talk HS track, always bringing up the up and comers. Just not here.

Stupid, look at this....

Little people, pay attention.

NOBODY....make that...NOOOOOOOO-Body who knows track woud ever say this....

As a middle scool kid I ran a 19.5=20.5. That is totally/100% humanly impossible. It is right there with a middle school kid playing in the NFL, yep...IMPOSSIBLE.

So for SFS to stick to that silliness tells all of us he don't know a damn thing about track.

Right now the fastest 200m in the world is a 19.6 by Noah Lyles. Lyles is the guy who broke the long standing HS 200m record with his 20.09. Texan Roy Martin had held the record 20.13 since the 80's.

Bullet Bob Hayes never ran faster than a 20.4 200m, now imagine some little kid running with Bob Hayes,hahahaha~~~~~~~~

These are the fastest 200m ever ran in history, and SFS ran a 19.5-20.5, hahahaha~~~~~~~~

And.....a box....hahahaha~~~~ Try...pit....long jump...pit.

Ok, this is considered by guys like myself (Guru's) to be the greatest long jump competition in history.

If ya really do care about the event at all, this is a must see.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybEs3j_MmrA

The longest jump in history.

When Gale Sayers was in HS he led the nation (HS level) with a 24-11 jump. His older bro Roger one of the few to beat Bob Hayes n a 100.

HOF WR Lynn Swann a two time Cali HS long jump champ, 24 something.

A very rare sight, Jesse Owens losing a long jump competition. This was at the 1935 USA Nationals.

Back in the day Texas Southern one of those HBCU schools had three 27 plus long jumpers all there together in...

Paul Emordi a Nigerian

One of the greatest HS long jumpers in history grew up about 30 miles away in Tulare, that would be James Stallworth. He still holds the Cali State record and was on his way to being one of the elite but.......he couldn't stay away from the drugs.

Work with me here ok?

SFS claims to have ran a 19.50-20.5 as a middle school kid...ok?

Right now today the fastest WORLD CLASS 200m is...19.6.

Dude, NOBODY who knows track is saying he ran a 19.5=20.5 as a kid......ok?

SFS knows..0...about track and he's even said....why waste my time watching track.

Go to the General Sports thread and post...SFS vs Avante Track Trivia Contest..ok? I would totally, completely, 100% destroy the boy and everybody here knows it.

SFS knows nothing at all about any of this stuff.

The biggest track meet in the USA in 2018 is this weekend, the USA Nationals.

Now watch all the insight you won't be getting from SFS. The guy has no idea at all about anything going on there.

[Avante]

The first really fast cat I ever came in contact with was Sam Davis from Edison HS Fresno. This was in 64. Davis was running 9.6 which was far faster than everybody else around here except Roger Jones from one of those Bakersfield schools, he was at 9.7 but I only saw him once, and that was a loss to Davis at the Valley Champs.

Sam Davis would win the state JC 100 while at Fresno City, took 4/5??? at the NCAA's at SJS and ran leadoff on that great Spartan gold medal 4x1 NCAA's champs team with John Carlos on anchor.

My bad, make it third.

HUGE..meet this weekend and your track SOURCE......no opnions....why? Yep, he has no clue who is even competing, he lied again there is no fantasy track league. A guy in a track league who says......why waste my time watching track.....ha~~~

[Darth_Pelican]

5 consecutive post Google meltdown.

Would be nice if our track SOURCE SFS actually did something. Avante obviously enjoys the sport, not sure we can say that about our SOURCE who doesn't appear too interested in track at all

[Avante]

SFS being our EXPERT/SOURCE who do you see winning the long jump at our Nationals, come on guy try doing something, can you?

[Avante]

When I first got into this stuff, we'd see a lot of the HBCU athletes in the mix. Talented black athletes wanting to stay close to home so to stay in the south there they were at Texas Southern, Southern U, Grambling, Florida A&M, Jackson State etc etc. So who can tell me the first Nationally acclaimed HBCUer in the sprints? Come on ya can do this, let's see it.

Who was the first HBCUer to have a 1000 yards rushing in the NFL? How about the AFL?

Come on ya can do this little people.

[Avante]

SFS are you ever going to actually do anything? Dude, you do nothing but BS and dance around, why? Stop and actually talk track, come on guy let's see ya do something/anything other than the nothing you have been doing.

Dude, talk to me about what to expect in the long jump at our Nationals, is that too hard for ya slick, if it is then how in the fuck can you be a track SOURCE....well?

So you can talk 16 year old Cuban long jumpers just not USA World Class long jumpers, hahahahahaha:rolleyes

[Avante]

Being this thread is about a... WOW.... track performance.

Jamaican Don Quarrie was a WR 9.9 cat and an Olympic 200m gold medalist. Steve Williams was a 9.1 WR (I was there) and one of the greatest sprinters ever.

So there they are at an indoor meet in Arizona, they will be running the 60. Also in the field was a local HS kid named LaNoris Marshall, yep, ya guessed it, the kid waxed the two sprint greats.

This anchor leg is still talked about today. Absolutely amazing.

As ya can see the sport has fans.Your meltdown nonwithstanding, you never said anything about the long jumper in the OP ever until this thread.

You're a got damn fraud since you never knew about this bona fide superstar.

[Avante]

In 2017 Echevarria jumped 27-2. That was the 15th*** best jump in the world. His Cuban teammate Maykei D. Masso was World Ranked number six, and had a 27-4. The best jump in the world last season was 28-4 1/4 by South African Luvo Manyonga, who was ranked number one in the world.

***Seven jumpers jumped 27-2.

NOBODY....ever sees a 27-2 18 year old improving to 29 feet in a season, that simply doesn't happen.

So for this kid to do what he did is amazing.

But, I don't believe SFS a guy who never talks track actually said anything about a Cuban long jumper. He won't even talk USA long jumpers or anyone else.

Where is that at, love to see it.

SFS...oh by the way keep an eye on Cuban long jumper..................

Yeah right, coming from a guy with no opinions at all about the NCAA/Nationals.


27-2 doesn't excite anyone in 2018.



8.28 m (27 ft 2 in)

There have been over 800 jumps superior to 27-2. Trust me NOBODY sees a 27-2 jumper and thinks......next stop 29 feet, ha~~~~~~~~~~~

And, anytime a track athlete makes some dramatic improvement in a short period of time, yep..........PEDS????

[Xevious]

In 2017 Echevarria jumped 27-2.
In 2018 Spurstalk voted 32-1.

[Avante]

In 2018 Spurstalk voted 32-1.

Spurtsalk doesn't know track, as we just saw with 32-1.

[Avante]

If it's teenagers doing amazing things in track that would actually be an 18 year old pole vaulter Mondo Duplantis a Swede who goes to HS in the USA. He just won Paris yesterdy and last season was world ranked at number six.

A HS kid jumping 19-4 is incredible. No HS/teenager is more revered than this kid.
