or does this 200 lb. dude make the secondary look slow. Is he going to be able to outrun D-1 secondaries?

He cuts and hits the hole hard and fast

no jumping around; straight north-south runner.

Even when he hits into the line and is stopped, he bounces outside very efficiently. I can see why coaches like him.

No idea about actual speed versus D-1 backs. However, he does seem powerful, sheds tacklers.

Yeah, this is actually the biggest surprise to me

Timmons has been anti-Texas for a while. He seemed like he was only coming to visit Texas for the fun of it. And to read that he committed? Huge pick-up for Mack!
