CJ, Thanks for commenting on this article that was written in 2023. I just re-read my article, I don't see anywhere that I implied he could have run 4.1 with today's improvements. I was just trying to celebrate what an incredible sprinter Bob Hayes was.
Joe, thanks so much for your feedback. It will be interesting covering Bob Hayes next summer when I visit the 1964 Olympics. Obviously that was before my time. But I've heard many stories about his utter domination and there are some legends about his unofficial relay split times.
Was the article insinuating that w/today's improvements Hayes could run a 4.1 in the 40 yd dash

This was a great article. I never knew there was an Olympic Gold Medalist who played in the NFL.
