Impressive stats for freshman and sophomore years.

 

[StoVol]

Like the td to int ratio for a player that young.. They usually throw 15 int a season that young.

Visiting and meeting with the coaches June 9

Invited to UT's camp next month

I would rather have ward or hendrick

 

[JuggernaUT_VOL]

Seen this kid in the quarter finals he has an impressive arm....

 

[AbarVolfan15]

Chad Voytik? Better?

Similar ... Kids got alot of zip and seems to try to be a thowing qb first, but can turn on the jets.

I'm just saying depending on the style of o the new coach runs he could be a player you wouldn't mind gambling on.

Not 100%a but heard Oregon is after him..

 

[JuggernaUT_VOL]

2012 stats: 2,010 passing yards with 28 TDs and one interception,479 rushing yards and sixTDs on 50 carries...

This is regular season stats he is playing Boyd Buccs on tssaa website right now...

 

[volfrk86]

I would take this kid. I think there will be at least two or maybe three qbs in the state next year worth a look for a scholly.

 

[Regulator]

This would be the recruit referenced in the TFP article.

 

[shelbyvillevol]

This would be the recruit referenced in the TFP article.

Article also claims he projects to be a DB in college.

 

[volfrk86]

ask Mac Brown about qbs that he missed out on that he thought were projected as a DB aka Robert Griffin the third and Johnny Football Manzell future Heisman.

 

[JuggernaUT_VOL]

One interception in the regular season is staggering for a high school junior... Not to mention he's a dual threat...

If you watch his film you can see that he is a better passer than he is a runner, but its hard to make that claim because he is just an exceptional athlete.

I agree ...

Would be a great fit in CBJ's O...

Would be a great fit in CBJ's O...

This kid is a DB at the next level.. Pretty sure he is being recruited as an athlete but his measurables and skill set fit himinto the cornerback role in college..

You don't think he's a legit QB prospect?... I havent seen a single film of him playing anything but QB...

I know nothing about the kid besides watching him in the state game and the quarter finals but he seems to me as a talented young man...

I agree.. He is definitely a legit D1 prospect.. I have heard some things about the kid in the past few months and the feeling I got from reading and hearing some folks is that he would be a slot WR or DB..
The kid was All state as a sophomore in Pennsylvania and transferred to FCA this past year and really impressed people..

I am also making an assumption somewhat because I don't personally think the kid can play QB at next level.. But it is fairly common for kids like him to be made DB's even if they did not play defense.. ALL THE MEASURABLES then coach them up..

AJ Long will definitely be an instate prospect to watch moving forward..

This kid plays literally 5 minutes from where I live. I'll keep you guys updated on him. From what I've seen/heard he won't play QB at the next level. One of those deals where the most talented athlete on the field is put at QB to maximize touches.

I think he has a chance to play QB at the next level because of his skill set. I saw every game he played this year as my son is on the FCS team.

I would agree with this if he were makin more plays with his feet than his arm...
