Who is fastest Cat on the current roster and what is there 40 time? I know it should be between Shuler, Vault and Anderson just not sure who of those three has the best time. I'm thinking Anderson though.

In terms of straight-up pure speed that theoretically applies best to football, its probably between Miles Shuler (PRs: 6.39 55-meter dash and 10.39 100-meter) and Jelani Roberts (PRs: 6.42 55-meter dash and 10.68 100-meter). Solomon Vault (6.55 55-meter and 10.66 100-meter ), John Moten (10.58 100-meter), and a couple others could probably give those two a literal run for their money.

Track speed is obviously different from "football speed," as Anderson is very explosive on tape but didn't have great track times (11.16 100-meter, albeit as a sophomore).

My select track team ran against AA since he was 6 years old in the summers in Texas. He has always been really fast. His PR for his sophomore year was 10.86 per Dyestat site link below:

I believe the hip injury prevented him from running his senior year but my son ran with him at his HS a couple of weeks ago and said his speed was back to pre-injury levels. I would add the freshman Jenkins to this list as well. Only way to really answer this question is to have them race in a 40, 60 and 100.

Great to hear he is fully recovered!!
