I am still blown away by this guy...he was faster in high school than Tyreek Hill, but he is not 5'8", but he is 6'3" was one of the fastest high schoolers in the nation, and can jump through the roof. Once he gets back in shape and into form? He could be the perfect guy that turns 50/50 passes into a 75/35% in his favor by catching or pass interference. Oh yeah...he is big and strong and can out-muscle most defensive backs...whew!

Plus he gives 110%!

I only remember maybe 5 to 8 Ducks in the last 50 years with that kind of speed and none that big. Hope he has the moves and hands.

Google is your friend....

Gatlin Bair ran a 10.15 in high school, and the following were done by players while at Oregon.

Mel Renfro: 9.60

Sammy Parker: 10.18

De'Anthony Thomas: 10.31

Devon Allen: 10.36

LaMichael James: 10.52 (But he never ran above a 4.40 forty-yard-dash and was recorded at 4.37 at the NFL Combine. Bair has run a 4.36)

Bair is already in elite sprinting company....and he is 6'3" and can jump high enough where the top of his head is even with a basketball rim.

Renfro ran a 9.6 100 YARD time.

That's a significant difference.

Former Duck TE Russ Francis also ran a sub 10 second 100 yard dash in HS.

Theoretically, there is about a 1-1.25 second difference in the times required to complete the 100 meters.

AI gave me 100 Yard times…

Whatever. He will show the doubters later, because again-his was a high school time, while the other times were after being older, and trained in college.
