'17 AL QB Bubba Thompson

I like this guy's film. The first three plays on his highlights are perfectly thrown deep balls. Guy has a huge arm it appears, which would be obvious since he's a baseball player, but his arm looks great. When he takes off, he's very fast. Man, you never know, Lamar Jackson was a 3*. If he's serious about football he could blow up. I hope we land him!

I think he's a take myself when we have nobody else except for the Hooker kid & possibly the Urich kid left to get anyhow for the 2017 class. I would rather have the Urich kid myself but no guarantees he backs out of his USCe committment.

Don't know much about the Hooker kid even though I watched a couple of videos. I think Urich is the best of the 3 myself but that's just my opinion. Bubba does some nice things as well.

Just watched his film and the kid can play. Think the whole baseball commitment may have held him back evaluation wise. While other kids were out on the camp circuit he was busy playing ball. Love his arm and hes a pretty good athlete too. There were a couple of times where he pretty much ran off and left everyone. Not touting the guy as the next anything but mist say I am impressed and I watch a lot of film.

After he wins the Alabama 5A state championship, it will be a done deal. The last QB, UT had from the Mobile area won a natonal championship. Plus, he will greatly improve the baseball team, so mark my words, the next commit will be - Bubba, guaranteed!

Tee was from Alabama? I thought he was from Georgia. Either way. By the way Bubba plays in 7A, the absolute cream of the crop in Alabama.

How we go from recruiting a top QB, to looking at QB who has an offer from Troy

Convenient of you to say Troy while completely ignoring the Ole Miss offer he got the day after we offered. Kid is legit. Watch the tape. First year playing because he missed last two years with injury. Kid has a cannon and can fly

So, at one time we thought we had 5 star Trevor Lawrence locked up, but now we are supposed to be excited about taking a QB out of Alabama( with No offer from the state schools). And his best sport isn't football....

Dave Serrano is probably pretty happy about it.

I reall like this kid. Got a rocket and can run! I'll love it too if he develops good and beats Alabama a couple times while he's here if he does indeed commit.

Troy is a damn good football team. I'm sure you think no one plays football outside of the SEC.

This kid put up crazy numbers in 7A Alabama football. That is no small task. Over 30 touchdown passes and less than 5 interceptions in an entire high school season is incredible. Couple that with his rushing numbers, and leading his team to a state championship and you have a great prospect that just needs to be molded a bit. By most services Dobbs was a 3 star, and we saw how he turned out.

Conveniently ignore the Ole Miss offer and the fact that his relative obscurity is more due to his promise as a baseball player than his failures as a QB.

I know those things don't fit your agenda, but you're creating a false narrative here to frame that agenda.

Need at least one QB in every class IMO. Not getting an elite this cycle, so take a project with upside. Actually has a good release and touch on the long ball with a live arm. Stands in the pocket well. Will have difficulty seeing over lineman and remains to be seen if he can move in the pocket enough to find the passing lanes or look off DB's. Looks to have good quickness to run the read option.
