Look up Stephan Fernholm. Fastest big man ever. Died young though, believed to have been related to steriod abuse.
Fernholm was believed to be the World's Fastest "Big Man." At 6 ft 1 in, 270 lb, Fernholm ran the 40 yard dash in 4.25 seconds. He could squat 820lbs!

UCLA...Ato Boldon Trinidad
USC...Andre DeGrasse Canada
LSU...Richard Thompson Trinidad
Fresno State ....Mike Agostini Trinidad
Eastern Michigan....Haseley Crawford Trinidad
UTEP....Oba Thompson Barbados
Oregon...Harry Jerome Canada
TCU...Kim Collins St. Kitts/Ray Stewart Jamaica
Who else?

Brian Oldfield was even larger - 6'5" and 280 and ran the 40 yard in 4.3 and the 100 meters in 10.5.

I kind of believe the 10.5 meters but not really the 4.3.

Where you getting those times from. show me.
Here is him against Lacey O'Neill - pretty sure you know who she was.
No way he ran 4.3 - he has pretty good top speed but pretty slow out of the blocks.
The guy was no 4.3 guy. A 10.5 a possibility.
