New Commit--Bryce Petty

[volball625]

QB Bryce Petty from Texas committed last night after being offered. We beat out portland St. and New Mexico. What a stud!

[govols182]

Well, we did beat Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas A&M...

First thing I noticed from his highlight tapes is he knows how to look at the sideline for the play if we ever use that again.

[VOLNBAMA]

how many stars?

[volsfan223]

got a little tired of the short passes, but he didn't look that bad.

3. So far he looks like an Erik Ainge clone from last year...good midrange touch on the ball and good 3 step drop passes for about 4-5 yard gains. I've only watch first half of his first highlight video though because it's not loading very fast.

[volsfan223]

his stats aren't that bad either, and he seems to be pretty strong, and a 4.7 forty isn't that bad either for a quarterback

[govols182]

The last pass where he scrambled to the sideline and through it on the run was a perfect pass. Besides that he'll need to learn how to throw it deeper. I don't think I can stand another season of 4 yard out routes every play.

Well lets hope he doesn't play as scared.

[govols182]

His stock should improve to maybe a top 20 QB by February. Anyone else think he looks a little like John Cena?

None of them have offered though.

Yeah, don't need a QB that can't throw the deep ball. That first pass they replayed like 3 times in the highlight was pretty good though. 20-25 yards, good touch on it, perfect spot. He just seems a little too much like Ainge.

[ryancy]

he'll do as a back-up

I want Nunes

[volsack7]

this doesn't help our chances with Nunes...
