Some breaking news has just hit my desk here in the BTP newsroom: NC State junior wide receiver C.J. Riley is an extremely fast human. Sophomore running back Trent Pinnix and senior defensive end James Smith-Williams? Also of a fleet-footed nature.
Wolfpack strength coach Dantonio Burnette shared some of the team’s top 40 times on Tuesday evening:
Riley ran a laser-timed 4.39-forty and was timed by hand running a 4.33. I now have visions of Riley not only having a breakout season in 2019, but averaging 35 yards per catch.
Trent Pennix and James Smith-Williams some damn good numbers themselves, of course.
