2008 NCAA Outdoor Men's 100

LSU's Richard Thompson defeats Trindon Holliday, Walter Dix and Travis Padgett to win the title in 10.12.

[@Jas_Flash92]

This is for sure the best college line up like everyone on that line is STACKED lol. when I saw this race the first time I had no idea who was gonna win. everyone on that line is insanely fast 💨 all Speedy 😂

[@jazzcyclist]

Richard Thompson, the winner, is from Trinidad and he's already qualified for the Olympics.

[@JxmyHighroller]

hella good quality

[@osw330904]

my home boy Brandon is a freshman in high school, and he ran a 10.80! I think he may become one of the fastest in the world!

[@natalia71986]

To: jazzcyclist, Thanks for these fantastic uploads, do you by chance have the 2003 and 2007 women's outdoor 200m final. I'd love to see those if it possible. keep up the good work

[@okonh0wp]

please stop putting in who wins the race in such a difficult to avoid place when i click on the link. i like the suspense

[@pa21thebeast]

@GLT1230 how did you drop 1.3 sec in one year

[@pa21thebeast]

i ran a 10.9 this year as a freshman but i have been having so many injuries i might not be able to qualify for the minnesota state meet

[@kennethcoleman1378]

If you see Walter Dix's block setting @2:38, that's the reason for his slow start and ultimately cost him any chance at winning the race. Not saying he was a huge contender for this year but man that is a terrible block setting. The spacing between the front and back block is ridiculously large. It was so much space that he had to push his foot back into it in order for it to stay on the pedal when he rose into the set position. I know this is random and all but goodness that was just bad.

[@brownmamba6538]

Who cares? He got bronze in both the 100m and 200m at the Olympics that year. That's more impressive than any NCAA crap.

[@kennethcoleman1378]

남자100m에서누가우승했나요?

[@use2slam2]

amazing, bob hayes ran 10.05 47 yrs ago to win the gold medal in the 64 olympics 100m(ON DIRT TRACK)all these guys today with modern equipment and on modern surface tracks running right at what hayes ran on cinder. fastest football player of all time bob hayes, i can imagine what he would have run the 100meters on todays surfaces.

[@BreuckelensFinest]

Wrong, Bob Hayes isn't the fastest football player of all time. Jim Hines with a 9.89 electric then later on it was changed to a 9.95 in the 1968 Olympics on rubber surface & he also ran a 10.03 on Cinder surface as well. He went on to play for the Miami Dolphins but didn't make much noise. But he is the fastest man ever to play football. And the white boy named Armin Hary of Germany ran a 10.00 twice in his career was the fastest man ever on Cinder. He ran it during the 1960 Olympics. Just another fun fact.

[@MrKirk94]

Fuck Bob Hayes. Never heard of the chump

[@joecandito]

in texas a boy ran 10.08 in the state championchip this year. your buddy still has some work to do

[@joecandito]

jeff demps ran 10.01 on a notoriously fast track with a back wind. he hasnt come close to that since in college and yes, everybody in texas ran really fast. the winner who ran 10.08 wasnt even winning until the last 50 meters if you dont believe me go on flotrack and watch the video of the texas state final

[@livebelow16]

well I dont know where your from, but in Florida they use laser timing.

[@renell]

no he used too but was drafted from the team to do track and field

[@steelerfan786]

he was battling injuries all season, but it does seam like he saved it for the olympics haha

[@jaimesandoval1988]

I really dont watch college track and field but what I do notice is that in olympic years the majority of the NCAA champs don't amount to anything in the trials. Take these NCAA's for example the 100m top 2 USA guys did not even make the finals it was Dix the 4th place guy who did something in the trial he made the 100 and 200. So I have come to the conclusion that while others were thinkig NCAA tittle Dix was thinking Olympics. So why do these NCAA champs "choke" in the trials?

[@GLT1230]

i ran 11.3 as a freshman, 11.7 in 8th grade, 13.0 in 7th.........sophomore year 10.8?

[@osw330904]

naw my boy, Brandon Stewart is one of the fastest ppl in the south, hes 15 and he qualified to run in Italy for the junior Olympics, this past summer. he didnt go though. Shreveport la

[@nailgun1499]

genetics actually play a huge part in athletics.

[@BreuckelensFinest]

And stupidity actually play's a huge part in opinions!

[@blackmon7]

@jaimesandoval1988 richard thompson, silver medal in the 100m final.

[@Scottdahockeyman15]

[@speedyorr471]

Yo SGotti no

[@mosdefali]

@jazzcyclist yup and got second. plus alot of these guys dont make the US team.

[@jaimesandoval1988]

I was speaking in regards to USA athletes only. He did great I know.

[@fastnigga2011]

shoot im runnin a 10.57 as a sophmore

[@bgizzle904]

@jaimesandoval1988 Usually they pursie other careers like football and dont train as much for track

[@jaimesandoval1988]

I know but I was speaking in regards to USA track athletes. I dont want to come thrue as bias or impartial but I dont care much for runners in other countries only USA athletes.

[@joecandito]

silver and bronze went to collegiate athletes

[@mrlabnilla]

@mistergingerbreadman im from west africa 13 years old and alot of teachers see me do the 40 yard dash and beg me to join the school track team

[@BreuckelensFinest]

So you're about 21 years young now. What's going on with you now?

[@kamka-ne2924]

BreuckelensFinest so he’s 22 years young now. And we’re still wondering what he’s up to.

[@MrKirk94]

Lmao

[@TaylorBoi11]

This years Trial times and NCAA times cannot be compared. Are you kiddin me? The wind at the trials was rediculous. Stupid comment.

[@osw330904]

not as a God dang freshman! we run track all over the south and hes had one of the fastest sprinters for his age in the south! and the fastest 100 meter time for any high schooler was 10.00 by Jeff Demps last year at the U.S. Olympic trials! so aint no way in hell these Texas boyz running collegiate times!!!

@BenjaminPipic actually it is proven that most jamaicans generally have longer achilles heels and the fast twitch muscle thing is true whether u wanna believe it or not

[@BreuckelensFinest]

That's a crock!

[@MrKirk94]

You full of shit

[@USMJavelin2012]

you dont save anything for the olympics when your looking to win a D-1 track tiitle

[@skipqtexas]

Padgett is the truth but he needs to loosen up a bit. After 60 meters he tightens up and the last 20 meters he can barely move his legs. He should have qualified in the olympics if he would have relaxed and thats why that unknown at this level closed in on him and took the 3rd and final spot at the trials.

[@TotalDistinction]

@BenjaminPipic I'm not God so I don't know, but then why do you generally (if not every time) see blacks and not whites in sprinting events. I think sprinting is a strength for blacks and not necessarily for whites. How many blacks do you see do swimming? That is mostly whites because that is their strength.

[@Tribeofjudah89]

Darnel Garner you are so right brother i run the 400 bruh and i love it we blacks run the sprinting event bruh word up

[@jaimesandoval1988]

USA athletes only!

[@mosdefali]

@jazzcyclist hey dont forget the rest of team USA that would smoke these guys.

[@osw330904]

not as freshmen....
