James Battle from Denton Ryan

[Houston Pony]

He's only a sophomore, but he's big and smart at quarterback. Saw him on Friday night, and he made two key decisions that won the game for his team. The first one: On 3rd-and-something at the Corsicana 33, he broke the huddle, and saw that the Tigers had only 10 defenders on the field. He got his offense lined up in a hurry to take advantage, and he ran down to the Tiger 2. Then, he got his team to line up with the clock ticking and snuck into the end zone. He's got a good arm with a nice touch, and he can run. Maybe we can start working on him early, and put some influence on him. He's a good looking player.
