ahhhhhh

PB needs the frk now, jk lol
ok the main exercises to incease speed and jump strength that i use are the following

speed squats with bands-no box-really makes no significance if u hit paralell or not with these, lol im gunna get flamed now i can feel it
seated hamstring curls with bands
glute ham bench
single leg-bodyweight+ bands- ballistic calf raises
single leg leg press with light weights
weighted lunges
timed goodmornings(i feel they help overall) not for weight but take 225 say for a 1 minute set
also hit ure abs everyday with diff exercises like the angled bench with med ball ballistic situps, do EVERYTHING as fast as u can

these are a few, then STRETCH after every workout, but when u test ure speed and jumps, DONT stretch, as ull lose alot of the stretch reflex

oh yea and stretch ure calves EVERYDAY
use an angled calf bolck to do this, abt a 6-8" angled block should do the trick

FRKNHUGE, Here is a good exercise for speed and strength, get caught in bed with a woman whos husband just came home and he is 6'8" and 340 and ain't fat, blocking the door out, after jumping from the 2 story window and leaping 10 backyard fences and pushing the car to jump start it cause the starter is out, now that will do it for ya...
