Guest Guest Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 Not even close?! What a ignorant d-bag. Raboy wins hands down. With all things equal, Raboy was the most pure & greatest sprinter Section 4 has ever seen. With youre logic, it's similar to saying yes Ernie Davis was GREAT (in his day, blah blah), but against the likes of Jordan Thomas and modern day running backs, he is not even close. You are such a DELETED and you must be a grad from the 90s or 00s. Raboy was the FASTEST ever from Section 4. The End. * You are dead wrong and comparing football to track isn't a good choice. Football players have things like size, strength, agility, elusiveness etc that you can't measure. Also like another guy said Ernie Davie was not just Sect 4 elite, he was the best of the best in the nation. He will always be at the top of the best Sect 4 runners for a good reason Until another player wins a Heisman or is a Div 1 All American at RB he's the best we ever produced. He did things no other player can claim. Track is measured in one thing for sprinters and the clock tells the tail. First of all you have to add .22 to almost every time that Raboy ran because of Hand Timing being used. The FAT times that runners get now is so much more accurate its not even close. Yes Raboy ran on cinders and the new tracks will help with time but Raboy also did run on all weather surfaces in meets at Cornell, his fastest 100M time in college was 10.48 great but Thomas was near that in HS and so was Chrystie. Raboy's records are gone and with it are any claims of him as the fastest Sect 4 runner. That honor will always go to whoever has the best time, currently its Thomas.

Guest Guest Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 Raboy is the fastest ever. He beat Joe Morris & James (both NFLers) twice in the 55m while at Cornell. Plus they did have & use FAT times when Raboy won NYS HS title in the 100 yard dash. Cornell used it at all their meets. Raboy ran a 10.48 FAT in 100m in 1979. Nobody and I mean nobody from Sect 4 has ever bested that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 Everybody is forgetting Chris Coleman from Vestal in the 80's. Not only did he win state titles in the 100m and 200m, he also was a 5 time all american in track at Binghamton University and still holds the school record in the 55m 6.34" and 100m (10.2"). After graduating he was also a the brakeman on 1992 and 1994 Winter Olympic 4man bobsled team. LOL! Coleman was 5-time All-American in college?!?! You dumbass & liar! NCAA athletes only get 4 years of eligibility regardless of the sport. What a moron. He was def top 6-7 fastest, but def not the fastest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can be an All-American in Indoor and Outdoor Track plus multiple events, Coleman was a 5 time All-American he had 8 seasons to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great job on schooling that guy!! Amazing how easily someone calls someone else a name rather than figure THEY might be wrong and assuming something.

Yeah because runners like Raboy, Coleman etc never ran indoor track LOL. Sorry but when you are in the Northeast Indoor track is a forced part of life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
