Jacoby Ford ('06) Sets ACC Record in 60 Meter Dash
Jacoby Ford ('06), now a wide receiver for the Clemson Tigers, ran a 6.53 in the 60-meter dash during qualifying for the ACC Indoor Track & Field Championships being held at Clemson, setting a new ACC record.
Not one to rest on his laurels, Ford then ran a 6.52 the following day, breaking his own record. Ford's time is the fastest in the world this year.
Ford came to FUMA as a PG and was not heavily recruited as a high school football player. While at FUMA, he showed exceptional speed and skill at wide receiver and kick returner and set the benchmark for the 40-yard dash during his combine here with a time of 4.12.
Many schools recruited Ford during his time at FUMA and Ford joined the Clemson Tigers in the spring of 2006.
