'27 GA QB Derrick Baker (Tennessee commit)

[LittleVol]

Have we reached a point to where schools are valuing 7vs 7 as much as they do high school football? I know basketball recruits aau ball as much as they do high school basketball. Seems to me football may be going down the same path

And that’s ridiculous. Because Basketball AAU is still just basketball.

7 on 7 passing league is not football.

I remember when my team beat the 2 time defending 6A state champions in 7 on 7.
We were in 3A and went 10-3 that year. They went on to go 15-0 in 6A! They demolished our cross town rival in their playoffs by 42 points in REAL FOOTBALL. WE beat our rival by only 7 points.

Admittedly the sport has changed quite a bit since that time, but blocking and tackling are still huge components of real football.

Hope not, 7on7 is not live reps, camp isnt either. Nico got to be a 5 star because he was elite in camps and 7on7, but in hs his stats were pedestrian at best.

Yep. Nico is a great example of this. He was a 7 v 7 star. But he's not a great football player.

UCLA went crazy in the transfer portal. He had no weapons. He as some now. We’ll see.

The one weapon Nico had was Thornton. Brazzell was up and down. Bru was slow.
Not saying he’s a great player, but he is certainly still a talented and capable player.

he's a volleyball player learning to play QB. he has pro skills but not the pro pedigree. not his fault. does he have the want too.

His stats weren't crazy bc he was out at halftime each game, not bc of talent lol

Lack of weapons didn't make him brutally inaccurate down the field.
