Another California QB on the way?

[PonyPride]

Just received an e-mail that suggests another California quarterback is headed to SMU, presumably as a walk-on. Cayman Carter is plays for Corona del Mar High School (the Sea Kings!) in Newport Beach, Calif. MaxPreps.com lists him at 6-1 and 180 pounds during his senior season and shows him completing 167 of 290 passes (57.6 percent) for 2,210 passing yards (157.9 yards per game) with 17 touchdown passes and six interceptions in 2012. No word on if he started every game (or how much of every game he played — looks like they ran up some pretty lopsided victories), injury history, what kind of offense his team runs, etc. Corona del Mar went 12-2 in 2012.

Ah, the wonders of technology. I shot a note to Carter, who confirmed that he will be arriving at SMU this summer as a walk-on. In addition to the information above, he:

• Guided his team to a California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) championship
• Was named CIF Offensive MVP
• Was named league MVP
• Started all 14 games with no injuries
• Rushed for more than 1,000 yards
• Rushed for 15 touchdowns

So then, he was responsible for 3,210+ yards of passing and rushing and a total of 32 touchdowns...correct? Very interesting.

Your math surely is better than mine, but yes — that is correct.

Goodbye Conner Preston?

Goodbye Conner Preston?

Just because someone at his position is walking on?

[SMUer]

Just because June keeps recruiting over him at every opportunity he gets

[ponyboy]

Which is it? Is June not recruiting enough or is he recruiting over guys? You only get one answer.

So bringing in a true freshman walk on at his position when he is going to be a redshirt sophomore is recruiting over him? I do not see it that way.

I read an article by Leigh Steinberg for the Corona del Mar HS newspaper. Apparently he writes a column for them on a weekly basis. In any event, with Steinberg as June's agent (still ?) and with a direct link to Cayman Carter's high school, wonder if Steinberg was instrumental in referring Carter to SMU ? Just connecting dots this evening as nothing on TV is worth watching.

conner is like 5-10 adding just about any qb would be recruiting "over" him.

[Stallion]

well latest QB commit is 5-10 too-so they will be eye-ball to eye-ball

[leopold]

Is he coming in as a QB, or possibly as an ATH?

Fine. Call it a hunch.

Both? June hasn't had a QB more than 2 seasons in a row. He is forever plugging holes his own poor recruiting and poor QB developing creates.
