Wow, this is a crazy discussion. Speed wins. Ask the SEC. Track makes kids fast. Ask the SEC. OR has the one of the best "get faster" coaches in the state. Check out what Roberts did at West. Yeah, they are fast aren't they. Those LB's, DB's, RB's should all do track every year. Track lifts 3 to 4 days a week. Their squat max's, clean max and Bench max all go up too. The kids would get stronger and faster. Stronger and faster is a winner. "It is what it is" doesn't cut it. If you want to win, really win.
