I seem to "recall" that Ted Ginn must have the record for most number of returns called back for clipping.

or blocking a defenseless player...that one still psses me off!

Dontre has a ton more wiggle than Teddy has, but Teddy never needed it. Compare Dontre to a Devin Hester and you might get a serious comparison when Dontre is done here if he stays healthy. Ginn is a different animal.

Teddy Ginn: If he's even - he's leavin!

Teddy Ginn comparisons are simply unfair. Ginn was in another league when it came to pure speed.

Not only that, they're irrelevant to the original question, namely whether the PSU kicker ran him down.

I've never seen anyone close, personally.

Chris Rainey was pretty quick, just never seemed to find his groove on the football field outside of a few spectacular plays. Rainey lacked that extra gear Ginn had, though.

 

[Bleed S & G]

Teddy most certainly had that extra gear. It's funny, I was just talking this weekend about how I miss watching that dude on Saturdays.


Here's to this fall, and the next, watching Dontre become Dontre. They go by too fast.

Teddy Ginn's acceleration was off the charts. That is where Dontre differs from him. Dontre doesn't have the acceleration that Ginn does... Just my 2c.

From the Buckeyes... Joey Galloway would have come the closest. He certainly was another burner.

Yep.

Joey Galloway played 15 years in the NFL and was still a deep threat at the end.

He takes a back seat to no one in terms of speed.

I just missed Galloway, before I really remember paying attention to who the players were - the first burner I remember was Terry Glenn - 253 yards on 9 catches against Mark May's Panthers:

Watch the FB pick up the LB on catch #3.

He was not as elusive as they claim. At the 52 second mark, the cheerleaders caught him.

Galloway and Mowins did the UM/App St game Saturday.

Yesterday Denard Robinson was at the Michigan game. On the air, Joey Galloway said, "I would say I'm the fastest guy in the stadium today."
