    How big of a flip is it? After all, Tech is the Harvard of the South when it comes to academics.

    Nice grab!

    He has 11 offers with 5-6 very impressive.

    Offers from the following with emphasis on the underlined and bolden:

    Boston College
    Harvard
    Louisiana Tech
    S. Miss
    ULL
    Dartmouth
    Tulsa
    Cincinnati
    UTSA
    Missouri
    W. Kentucky

    This young athlete is obviously very cerebral and watching his highlights is really good. I like that he waited and used his head to decide on the choice. I also doubt ULL was ever in the hunt in his mind or his folks. I think he's a huge grab for the staff and Tech football.

    The difference is that at Harvard, your only option is indoctrination. At Tech, you can get an education.

    All kidding aside....this Holstein guy is VERY GOOD! First, he threw for over 9,500 yards in HIGH SCHOOL. That includes passing for over 3,800 yards in his junior and senior year each. He's obviously smart (had Harvard offer, right?). Oh....and did I mention he has prototype NFL QB size at 6'5, 210 lbs?

    This might be one of our best signees in a long time.

    We should let our expert QB coach (COYHCSH) be the judge of that. He probably won't be the Rock Star Smith was, but can he test negative even when he knows the test is coming?

    Holstein is one of the best that I've ever seen in person. Two summers ago, we went down to STM for a 7-on-7 tournament. I got to stand on the field just a few yards away from Holstein as he was carving up our defense. He spins the ball better than anybody I've witnessed live at the high school level. He has a quick, easy release and tremendous accuracy. And the best part is that what I saw in 7-on-7 was backed up by production in pads on Friday nights. This kid is one of the best QBs in Louisiana over the past two decades and was talented enough to keep his job despite immense pressure from a talented backup QB who committed to LSU as a sophomore.

    The one thing that doesn't make sense to me is the fact that Holstein was willing to grayshirt and that we asked him to do so. I figured he would have plenty of options to get into school immediately and start competing. Reading the tea leaves, I would assume this means that Luke Anthony has the inside track to win the starting job for next season and that Aaron Allen and Holstein will battle for the starting job in 2021.

    My guess is we knew we were getting the ACU transfer and already signed JD Head. We already have 4 QBs on the roster.
