It's a little odd...

Really??? Forward to the 1:09 mark, watch, then let me know how your foot tastes.

Brown also runs away from everybody at 2:22 of the same clip.

True, but I was debunking the point that Brown wouldn't be/wasn't caught from behind. When you talk UConn running backs, he is the standard. Even he was caught from behind, on occasion. RBs, typically, fall in the 4.4-4.6s 40-yard range. DBs run between 4.2-4.4s. So, at some point Newsome's (4.5s) line and Thomas' (4.4s) line are going to cross. It's a matter of where and when.

That's fair. In terms of pure top end speed, I think Brown is 3rd behind Todman and Caulley.
