keep in mind these are just names we use in the coaching office, not to the kids
also, i meant slow as in "legit 6.3 forty" instead of slow "that boy is as sharp as a bowling ball"

We have a Center/Guard who runs a (wind aided) 6.2 40...we call him "flash". I called a teammate of mine in college a 'sleestack"... he could run, but he looked like one of them (real funny shaped head, that guy...)

I didn't think it was possible to run a 40 in 7plus seconds but we had 2 frosh and 1 soph do it this year.

For us the slow kids were BUFFs (big ugly Fat F---ers) if they were linemen or "doilies" for the little ones, as they just sat there and looked pretty (ugly) and let stuff through like a sieve.

We have a freshmen O-lineman who has earned the nickname "NASCAR" due to his blazing speed.
We have another kid who runs a seven-second 40 who is known simply as "Possum".
My college coach used to refer to us big guys as roadgraders. Pretty slow but you don't want to get hit by one!

I told one of my coaches that if "that kid raced a sloth, the sloth would win."

Fish, his little brother was talking smack about him having no knee's a couple weeks ago. I am a little surprised he is still playing ball. You have to admire his determination.

he doesn't know when to shutup, but he works hard and was starting to earn some playing time before grades came out.

We have a kid we call "hot coals" because it for 1) it looks painful every step, and 2) he picks his feet up so awkwardly. That or quiksand, we can't decide.

I always tell the fat boys when they are running: "If you would run any slower you would stop!"

As my offensive line coach used to say (not to me luckily) "Gosh son your slower than the second coming of christ!"

I like..
"If you were running any slower, you would be going backwards" or "I need a sun dial to time your forty."

We have a kid on our team we call Slo-Mo (Slow motion). The old, un hook the trailer call. A couple of years ago we had a few guys when we ran, I would call it the battle of the belly's. If we were running the mile, I would say lets go battle of the belly's. Those couple of guys would race to see who would win the battle of the belly's for that day. The guy who won I would buy a gatorade after practice. Seems kind of minor, but they wanted that gatorade and the recognition for winning the battle of the belly's that day.

I read somewhere once, a coach said his kids were so slow they would drown in a car wash. Laughed for days.
