Such a nice change
Posted: Wed Mar 25, 2009 8:34 amLove to see all the enthusiasm so many QBs have for being recruited by SMU. Can't wait to see how things progress.

Most of our 0-line recruits are 6'1-6'3 so he should be able to see over them
Posted: Wed Mar 25, 2009 1:28 pmRegardless of his height, this kid looks like a great fit for the offense. Gets the ball out very quickly with phenomanl touch and accuracy. Quotes that he runs a very similar offense and clearly has a nice command of it. Chase Daniel, Todd Reesing, etc have had success at 5-11 or 6' in spread offenses that suited their abilities.
Watching him duck and dive while always keeping his head downfield reminds me a little bit of Romo - and no I'm not comparing the two QB's, just their style. Interesing prospect, at the least he's fun to watch.

Hey! There will be no reason here!
Posted: Wed Mar 25, 2009 9:03 pmare we supposed to be impressed by the size of the offensive lineman because its well below the norm.
Posted: Wed Mar 25, 2009 9:11 pmStallion, I know you are correct but I think with the BCS schools getting the first picks, that it might be that the under 6'4" lineman we are getting are more talented than a sleeper 6'7" kids that remain. There does come a time you have to rely on the expertise of the recruiting coaches in selecting the "best of the rest". In a perfect world though, 6'6" and up would be preferred.
