This guy needs to be drug tested ASAP. He has obviously never seen Bolt run.

He'd better try to make the roster at Tennessee first.  He wasn't great last year, fast or not!

He has as much chance of outrunning Bolt as I do whipping Superman. ;)

Johnson, who was a track star in high school, thinks he could beat Bolt in a race under the right conditions.
 
"I feel like if I would have kept training for track I'd have a chance, but I play football and he runs track, so it's totally different," Johnson told The Tennessean. "I think I could still probably beat him in the 40. If I actually trained for the distance he trained for, I think I'd have a chance."
 
I suppose it is possible, as Bolt trains for longer distances and might not hit his top speed over a shorter distance.  Still, this guy is pretty full of himself.

This guy must be crazy. His comment reminds me of John Lovitz's Pathological liar character on SNL. I can beat Usain Bolt, yea that's the ticket.
