The old negro leagues had a player, "Cool" Papa Bell that was so fast he once hit a grounder between first and second, while rounding first for second he had to jump over the ball. Dude was fast~~~~~~~
Josh Gibson hit more home runs than Babe Ruth did.
Getting back to "Cool" Papa, the story goes, he was so fast he could turn out the lights, get undressed and under the covers before it got dark. Dude was fast~~~~
Stanford's stud RB Christian McCaffreys grandfather was the great sprinter Dave Sime, he was the 1960 Olympic 100m silver medalist winner, lost the gold by inchs. He also held the WR in the 100 yards for anyone dressed in a baseball uniform, he ran a 9.8 (which is the time John Riggins ran while winning the Kansas State HS Championships, a le Packer receiver Jordy Nelson also won)
Now all that above could be bull .
True or false?
There was an all black HS in Tennessee their football team went undefeated for five years, the first three years of that streak.......they allowed no opponet beyond the 50 yard line. Yep, three seasons unscored on.
From 1901 to 1905 Michigan scored over 2000 points, while giving up....36. They won every game but the last one in 1905, they lost to Chicago 2-0.
Georgia Tech beat berland 222-0, it was 110-0 at the half.
Marcus Dupree was running back so many kickoffs for TD;s while in HS the offense went to the coach to see if he'd take him off that team, so they could play.
Bo Jackson was a Champion decathlete while in HS in Alabama, he was so good he never had to run the 1500m because he'd already won the event.
We've all heard of Jesse Owens, ya know the "Buckeye Bullet" who won all those gold nedals in Berlin in 1936 as Hitler looked on. Would ya believe we had another guy named Eulace Pea who owned Owens in the 100 and had also beat him in the long jump. Pea got hurt and couldn't compete in our Olympic trials.
Would you believe the papers back in the day would print....Negro Sets New Track Record...?

Alcorn vs North Carolina A&T is own Saturday.
Steve McNair and Donald Driver were out of Alcorn as was world record sprinter Willie McGee (9.1) who played with the Chargers.
NCA&T had the first HBCU RB to gain a 1000 yards in the NFL, that was Niner J.D Smith, who was a college DB.
Dave Sime is still considered one of the fastest white American sprinters ever. Him, Mel Patton, Charles Paddock, Hal Davis, Lindy Remigino and Bobby Morrow.
Sime in lane one. Lyle Lovett was the starter.
