        Tim Ruddy is mentioned in that link. [NT] - jray - 2:12pm 6/8/25
    - A valid point - ndunabomber - 2:51am 6/5/25
      - 2x AA Tripp Welborne, guy ran a 4.35 and would've went #2 in '91 Draft. - Rocketman84 - 9:37am 6/7/25
        Thanks for the info [LINK] - ndunabomber - 1:27am 6/8/25
        Exactly what happened, just buckled in the damnedest of positions. - Rocketman84 - 4:20am 6/10/25
      - I was at that game in an all UM section. I thought I was very restrained, but that one "yes" as it - BaronVonZemo - 3:22am 6/5/25
        Lightning in a bottle. I was at the 90 Miami nd game. Rocket took the kick back after we - ndphysics - 2:34pm 6/5/25
        relive your moment here [NT] [LINK] - und67 - 11:58pm 6/5/25
        Always a great memory - ndunabomber - 10:38pm 6/6/25
        
        A little slip at first then liftoff. Been a bit since I saw the video. Ty. - ndphysics - 9:37am 6/6/25
        
        Unbelievable memory, awesome for you [NT] - Frankx - 10:30pm 6/5/25
  - Other than Allen Rossum, we've never had anyone that fast. Wow. [NT] - jakers - 9:33pm 6/4/25
    - Mike Miller [NT] - Rocketman84 - 9:41am 6/7/25
      - Forgot about him. Sadly, he made himself forgettable. [NT] - jakers - 2:02pm 6/9/25
        He was cleared of the charges - ndunabomber - 1:35am 6/13/25
        I mean you have to remember they were 18-19 year old kids at the time. - Rocketman84 - 3:15am 6/14/25
        
        He dealt with homesickness but he persevered and got back into ND. - Rocketman84 - 2:00am 6/12/25
    - Will Fuller? [NT] - BaronVonZemo - 3:09am 6/5/25
      - A burner, but not 10.16 100 meters. [NT] - jakers - 1:37pm 6/5/25
        Is there a reasonable correlation that could be made between 100M and 40 time? - iairishcheeks - 2:34pm 6/5/25
        Some, but it varies greatly by individuals... - Chrisb - 9:17pm 6/7/25
        
        None at all...too many guys good at a 40 that couldn't break 10.8 in the 100 [NT] - Rocketman84 - 9:39am 6/7/25
        
        No. Way too many variables. - jakers - 4:17pm 6/5/25
        That makes sense, thanks. [NT] - iairishcheeks - 5:55pm 6/5/25
