Throws the ball effortlessly. This kid is a project but has all the potential
He only started his senior year. i'd say the reason he wasn't recruited by other schools is because of his height and skinny frame. Football coaches get in a rut of looking at recruits a certain way and just don't even look at what he's done. Sort of like some of the meetings I was in back in the day. If you throw out an original idea, everybody thinks you're crazy.Originally Posted by Amos Moses
I was going to say that. But with all the weight programs today he could gain 30 pounds in one year. I like his height because he can see over all those big linemen (O and D).
He didn't play private school ball so that should make you happy.
He doesn't seem to be afraid to throw it down the middle. I like it.
Go Tech!
You gotta call a spade a spade.. but George Scott will not be held back because of his HS competition.He didn't play private school ball so that should make you happy.
Yeah, there have been many guys who play private school ball who worked their way though D1 ball and some ended up in the NFL. No doubt 5A and most 4A is on a different level. Some select 3A, 2A, and 1A teams are consistently on a different level. 3A Private school ball in Mississippi has turned out some great players. Many of those teams could compete well in LHSAA 4A.
I hope he and Elijah Walker enjoy competition a little more than our former back-ups. If they'll stick it out, we should be okay at the QB position for the next 5 years.

Our former backup that was a bit heavy never had a chance to play. The one who did have a chance decided waiting on an injury was not a good look for him and that Walker was going to give him a run as well. I understand why both left and I'm glad they did.
You're crazy.
Just kidding.
Aaahhh....that magic word: Potential.
I heard Clemson Coach Dabo Sweeney interviewed today. At one point he was asked about a players potential and he said "POTENTIAL will get you fired."
You're right, but he is a walk on. We have nothing investedAaahhh....that magic word: Potential.

"Strange why he wasn't recruited by anyone."
Hope he turns out to be the QB version of Trent Taylor who was only offered by Louisiana Tech
From watching his film and also Griffin Herbert's.. he seems to have a natural touch on his throws, and he's said himself being 6'8 helps him read the defense. You don't go 48:5 TD to Int ratio on accident. This guy can throw the football. We lucked out he didn't go JUCO as he planned.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say, lack of experience aside, his mobility is what kept him from getting offers.
There's a huge focus on dual threat QBs now in college. You just don't see a lot of pure statue pocket passes anymore.
