We've had this debate on cockytalk before. Yes Tanner is fast, but there is a reason Byrd represented the USA at the World Junior Indoor Nationals. Byrd hands down.

And this is coming from a guy who coaches track in the grand strand and have seen Tanner in person on multiple occasions.

Tanner English would get smoked by all of them, I don't know why he's even in the discussion really. He's "baseball fast"

I've wondered the same thing. I think some people forget about Carson's speed.

Damiere Byrd wins. No question there.

I have no idea who comes in second, but there is no question who would win.

I think he means Carson literally wasn't one of the options in the first post.

Default Re: Who wins in a 55 m dash

Byrd ran a PR of 6.66 in the 60 meters in January.
Tanner was clocked at 6.37 in the 60 yard dash at a Perfect Game showcase.

60 yards is closer to 55 meters. I don't know how to do the math there. Tanner's time was the fastest in the event.

Default Re: Who wins in a 55 m dash

Byrd would win hands down in a track meet or even cross country. That would not necessarily mean he could do faster base running than English. Tanner knows baseball. Running is the only sport that I can speak about with any authority.
I am really hoping to see Shon run. It would be great to see Shon and Byrd streaking down the football field. Byrd is catching the ball with more sure hands and he knows the routes. I hope to see Shon this fall with the football.

English's conversion of 60 yards to 60 meters would be 6.96.

Would be nice to see Byrd utilized like West Virginia's Taivon Austin...similar build and attributes.
