Im an o-lineman and i got a 4.75 on mine, best on my team was a 4 flat

[qccat]

we do it, but we test for it just at the end of winter workouts. I got a 4.43 on mine as a fullback...one of our linebackers got a 4.17 but most were in the 4.6 range. The fast on my team was 3.84=sick

[dalcowbag]

i got 4.54 as a TE. . .we had a lil wideout pull a 3.9 out of his &ss. . .little sh!t

[qccat]

4.54 as a TE is right where you want to be. Good job man. Yeah, i couldnt believe seeing guys break 4.0 flat. Just a little funny thing here....they say that to be good in both your 40 and pro shuttle should be 0.4 apart. thats what scouts look at. So if i'm running a 4.65 40, they'd question my 4.43 and say that it should be in the 4.2's. Just something to think about. Obviously this is in the perfect world

[eacman65]

a 3.8 is ridiculous i was happy with my time as an o-lineman

[dalcowbag]

hmmm. . .i suppose i am right on track then. I have only been running 40's in the 4.8-4.9 range. I think its b/c i still have fat kid legs

[eacman65]

haha thats a good one

[qccat]

a 3.8 is ridiculous i was happy with my time as an o-lineman

yeah man, your time is very good for O-line

[eacman65]

thanks man its my best drill

[gettintheir]

Our team test pro agility. The times there are about the same as yours that you posted for lineman and linebackers and such, lol except for a freak linebacker thats goin to LSU ran a 3.89.

[eacman65]

thats unreal for an LB

[gettintheir]

Ya it really is, but this guy is seriuosly a freak of nature. It doesnt even make sense some of the **** he does. I ran a 4.05. That was the fastest we had all day, then he came back in the next dayand just killed it. By this is why he is going to go to a National CHampionship team too.

[decadbal]

what team is that FSU baby...go noles

[eacman65]

with a time like that he belongs at one

[birdman22]

i got a 4.77 and my forty is a 5.1 and i play o-line and the fastest on my team was a 3.86 and for a 40 was 4.28

[gettintheir]

lol no its not FSU, remember i said National Championship

[frank_frank]

sorry a little ignorant but is the pro agility the T drill??? can u all explain it to me cuz i think we call it someting else..

[qccat]

the pro shuttle is called the pro shuttle everywhere im pretty sure...its when you straddle the line, run five yards in the direction of your choice, change direction and run back through the middle for ten yards, change direction and run five more yards back through the middle....hope that can creat a visual

[frank_frank]

oh ya i know exactly what your talking about

it is sometimes called the 20 yrd shuttle though (cu u run a total of 20)

[boistheman]

most colleges just use the 10 yrd shuttle.

[dalcowbag]

oh ya i know exactly what your talking about

it is sometimes called the 20 yrd shuttle though (cu u run a total of 20)

yes it is also called that

[Badgerman]

The problem I see with any of these drills is trying to get an accurate time. Unless something is timed electronically I don't see much value in comparisons unless the same person timed the whole country......and even then the reaction time of the guy holding the watch can vary immensly.
If I were going to test people I'd just line everybody up and use a starting pistol and see who wins. That way you test reaction time too which is just as important as raw speed.
