The fastest kid in the USA.
A white kid running faster than Deion Sanders, Bo Jackson, Herschel WalKer and he's still in HS.
The last white sprinter to win an Olympic 100m gold medal was Texan Bobby Morrow (1956), he never ran faster than 10.20.
Tyreek Hill ran a 10.19 in HS.

Nothing strange. Any amateur track fan would know this.
The Bag stays in California.
It was big news when Frenchmen Christophe LeMaitre ran the first sub10.00 by a white sprinter a few years ago. Blacks have been running sub10.00 as far back as 1968.
The reason Boling is getting the attention he is....white.
In the history of USA Track & Field TT is tiny, a very minor player.
The school has never had a sub 10.00/20.00/44.00 sprinter/sprinters. TCU has had 8 sub10.00 sprinters. They have never had an Olympic 100/200 man.
The first sub10 sprinter was Jimmy Hines he was out of Texas Southern.
The first sub20.00 sprinter was Tommie Smith, he was born in Texas.
The American record holder in the 200/400 is Michael Johnson out of Baylor.
The HS 4x1 record is held by a Texas HS.
The fastest 100/200 white American ever, Bobby Morrow, Abilene Christian
The fastest white 400m sprinter is Jeremy Wariner out of Baylor.
The NCAA 4x1 record....Houston.
Fastest NFL cornerback ever, Darrell Green, Texas A&I
Fastest NFL RB in history, Curtis ey, Texas A&M
Fastest all while NCAA 4X1...Waymon Griggs...Bill Woodhouse...James Segrest...Bobby Morrow...50's Abilene Christian
The fastest NFLer ever Bullet Bob Hayes a Dallas Cowboy.
Only 100m sprinter to ever win back to back Olympic 100m gold, Carl Lewis out of Houston.

If you're running faster, how are you less athletic?
Very impressive. Dude can turn some cawnuhs thats for sure.
I need some Texas blues.
If this kid sticks to doing what he needs to do we could have something real unique here, a great white USA sprinter. Something we haven't seen since the 60's. Baylor's Jeremy Wariner was great at 400m.
Putting his 10.20 in perspective.
Tyreek Hill 10.19 in HS.
Herschel Walker 10.23
Deion Sanders 10.26
Jamaal Charles 10.18
too bad because collages do not sign white sprinters.
He's already been signed by Georgia.
We would have to go back to the 60's and hurdler/sprinter/footballer Richmond Flowers out of Tennessee to find a fast white cat in the SEC.
John Teeters at Oklahoma State the fastest white USA sprinter ever with a 10.00, he's currently competing.
Prior to Bullet Bob Hayes in the early 60's there were plenty of fast white guys. But, none to run the times we were seeing from Hayes, then once blacks started going to southern schools, that was it.
Something only Avante can do.

One of the strangest 100's
1 Frank Lombardi Los Angeles LA ## 09.6 100Y 1928
2 Frank Wykoff Glendale S 100Y 1928
3 Leslie Gray Stockton SJ 100Y 1928
4 Ralph Gilbert Santa Barbara S 100Y 1928
100Y 1928
That was the 1928 Cali HS Champs, Frank Lombardi tied the WR as a HS kid and beat the great Frank Wykoff in doing it. We would never hear of Lombardi again.

Can't talk speed in Texas and not mention The Sugarland Express Ken Hall
High school
Hall's career prep rushing record of 11,232 yards (1950: 569 yd; 1951: 3,160 yd; 1952: 3,458 yd; 1953: 4,045 yd) stood until November 16, 2012, when it was broken by Derrick Henry. His 32.9 points per game (1953/12) remains a national record. His record of 38 one hundred-yard games was tied by Steve Worster in 1966, but was not broken until the mid-1980s by Emmitt Smith, whose record was recently broken by Rushel S of Hopewell High School in Pennsylvania. Hall also finished his career with 14,558 yards of total offense (11,232 rushing/3,326 passing), a record that would last until being broken by Nitro (West Virginia) High School's future Major League Baseball player J. R. House in 1998.[2]
At Sugar Land, Hall played in the single-wing formation at quarterback, standing 6 ft 1 in (1.85 m) and weighing in at 190 lb (86 kg). According to the National High School Sports Record Book, Hall still holds multiple single-season records, including average points per game (32.9), touchdowns per game (4.8) and rushing yards per game (337.1).[2]
In a contest against Houston Lutheran High School in 1953, Hall averaged 47.3 yards on 11 carries for 520 yards (the state record for nearly 25 years, currently 4th), returned a punt 82 yards, a kickoff run of 64 yards and snatched a 21-yard interception for a combined 687 total yards.[2]
There is a connection to Texas, honest.
What RB did Cleveland offer Jim Brown for?
You really start to grasp how much effort avante puts forth and how much he genuinely worries about this site when you put him on ignore....so many occasions where the “ignore notification message” shows up four to five times in a row!
Much like boutons, it makes the threads much easier to navigate without having to scroll past a bunch of useless lists and youtubes.
Ever notice none of those who CONSTANTLY talk Avante ever do anything else? And if they do they are into it with some other poster.
Wow!
Here is the new revised All Time Texas 200m.

You are about to see the fastest 100m ever ran by a white sprinter from the USA.
Bummer it was windy. So not really a HS record which is 10.00.
This kid is going to be special, yep......The Great White Hope.
It works like this.
This kid can run a 46 400m and a 20.5 200m, so that tells us he has "long sprinter" ability. Which is what Usain Bolt came up with.
After about 70ish meters all sprinters are done accelereating and topend, now it's sustain/maintain that Topend as long as ya can, you want to decellerate slowly. Having 200/400 ability as a 100m sprinters tells us you have speed endurance in abundance. You will be able to hang on to a huge % if that topend better than most.
