The German sneaker giant made a thrilling offer before the weeklong event, which pairs the top college football players performing physical and mental tests in front of NFL coaches, general managers and scouts: Anyone breaking Johnson’s record of a 4.24-second 40-yard dash would get his own island, valued at just under $1 million.

University of Washington receiver John Ross broke the record Saturday by running a 4.22 40-yard dash, but he had on Nikes.
