| He has very good hips = very good change of direction ability witg good vision. He also looks explosive. The arm looks stronger than worley's. I saw Worley throw a go route in the o and w game and he doesnt have a very strong arm. He really struggled to throw it 45 yards. Bray and Peterman were both pretty easily throwing it 60+ yards in warmups.

| The beauty of recruiting an athletic QB like Rawlins at this point in time is that we are in a position currently to take a low risk-high reward type of athlete of his caliber. Peterman and Worley both appear to be more than capable of playing the position therefore Rawlins would not be forced into playing and would have time to develop. He has athletic ability that you can't coach and at the very worst he doesn't pan out and shifts to another position. |

I live in the next town over from Monesson and believe me he is not SEC quality. | Troll much? |

What? Just a concerned fan giving you an evaluation of someone I have seen play a lot. |

| I'm moving to Pittsburgh in literally a week. Since there seem to be so many of us in that area, I say we all get together sometime in the fall and go check this guy out. Wouldn't hurt our chances with him if he saw a bunch of guys sporting the Orange T at his game. |

| Rawlins team has changed conferences and now will play the big boys. I will go with you to the Clairton game. They have won 40 something in a row and 3 state titles in a row. They have a tremendous secondary with one of the best safeties in the country Tyler Boyd. You will get a good look at how good Rawlins is in that game. I will wear all my UT gear. After the game you tell me whether you want him then. |

| Since Southern Columbia has come back down to Earth, Clairton has been the top dog in single A. Nobody's going to beat them for a while.
This kid may be a project, but he's got the measurables. If Bray is still here next year, that'll put him behind Bray, Worley, and Peterman on the depth chart. Redshirt him and see what you can do with him while he waits for his turn. It's not like we can't recruit over him. |

All that matters right now is that his highlights show that he has a lot of potential. Due to the fact that we have stocked up on QB's we have time to develop him even if he is not polished yet |

| If we can accept a project this year, then what separates this guy from Darryl Richardson? |
