Guy has nice size and speed. He'll need to spend some time in the weight room to get his strength numbers up.
Those who complain about a problem are simply wasting time they could use to fix it.
Potential is nothing, performance is everything.

It really doesn't look like a good bet. But, on the other hand, even if we have to wait a year or whatever, growing the program is the goal, and we know it's not going to happen overnight. So having this guy in a year or two would be better than never having him at all. Throw enough projectiles in the air, and something is bound to hit.

i agree but this is the kind of guy who could make an impact in a suspect defense.

Or, to turn the phrase, he's the kind of guy who will make quite an impact on some unsuspecting quarterbacks.

I just wonder how many of our 2009 signees including this one will end up in JC or Prep School.

Anyone know why he was listed as unrated this morning? Seems weird that he was bumped up to a three star immediately after committing.

I believe info came in to rivals.com that he got MVP at some camp.

He did - as a quarterback.
Guy's a fantastic all-around athlete.

I heard it was at another position. I will try to confirm.
