I was listening to this PFF show on YT, and Packer Rats get a mention. :)

Haha, cool! We’ve had some don hutson discussion here at packerrats
I think we made it on PFT once also.
see, this is why you can't post stupid shit on here
now we all look like jackasses to the entire world because some retard 17 years ago thought in orer to get a 40 time you just take the 100 time and multiply it by .4
yeah you can't extrapolate it that way, but it's a ballpark approximation. It doesn't make a lot of sense though, since the margin for error is pretty small.
It's worth pointing out that the US record for the 100 yard is 9.10 currently, the US Record at the 100 meter is 9.69.
Curly was probably embellishing a number he'd hand timed for the publicity, and who knows if it was with a tailwind or on a flat surface.
It's sufficient to say that Hutson had world-class speed and leave it at that IMO.
With modern training and shoes, he would probably run 4.3-4.4. That speed at 6'1" is plenty good enough to play in the NFL today. He's be happier too, since he wouldn't have to play defense.
Happier? Yeah, until he got caught up in the mindset of today's world/NFL - then he'd be griping that he wasn't getting paid like Tyreek Hill, and he'd threaten to stay out of training camp.
Hutson had like 30 career picks on D. From a player value perspective, no one has come remotely close to Hutson.
I always thought the same, but recently read an article, I think by Cliff Christl, in which a few of the old timers said Clark Hinkle was actually a better player. So I dunno any more, though you can't argue that Hutson wasn't great. He was. But was he the greatest?
Hahahahhahaha, citing this page as fact is awesome ;)
Tex you’re now part of the media pukes you despise as much as I do.
What makes you say that?
