I grew up in Scranton PA, rocket in Wilkes barre and Tim ruddy in dunmore. All within 10 miles of each other.. I was the only one not to be an All American 😆. We were all students at same time.

I went to high school a year ahead of Marc spindler , Rocco’s dad. Marc was quite a football player too. Greg skrepnak who played at Michigan was also from Wilkes barre, all overlapped college time. Quite a run for college and pro football in NE PA

        Exactly what happened, just buckled in the damnedest of positions. - Rocketman84 - 12:20am 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 - 11:22pm 6/4/25

        Unbelievable memory, awesome for you [NT] - Frankx - 6:30pm 6/5/25
  - Other than Allen Rossum, we've never had anyone that fast. Wow. [NT] - jakers - 5:33pm 6/4/25
    - Mike Miller [NT] - Rocketman84 - 5:41am 6/7/25
      - Forgot about him. Sadly, he made himself forgettable. [NT] - jakers - 10:02am 6/9/25
        He was cleared of the charges - ndunabomber - 9:35pm 6/12/25

    - Will Fuller? [NT] - BaronVonZemo - 11:09pm 6/4/25
      - A burner, but not 10.16 100 meters. [NT] - jakers - 9:37am 6/5/25
        Is there a reasonable correlation that could be made between 100M and 40 time? - iairishcheeks - 10:34am 6/5/25
        Some, but it varies greatly by individuals... - Chrisb - 5:17pm 6/7/25
        
        None at all...too many guys good at a 40 that couldn't break 10.8 in the 100 [NT] - Rocketman84 - 5:39am 6/7/25
        
        No. Way too many variables. - jakers - 12:17pm 6/5/25
        That makes sense, thanks. [NT] - iairishcheeks - 1:55pm 6/5/25
