aujeff11 6,243 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Just watched his highlights from HUDL. He is a pretty gifted runner even though he is not freakishly fast. His deep ball seems to hang in the air a bit and his mechanics need to be tinkered with. Overall, I think he will be a great pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dire_tiger 0 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 interesting. It seems like we were only going to be taking one QB next year, so would we already be done at the position if he commits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellitor 33,062 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Does he have an offer? Why haven't we heard anything about this guy until now? 1 Yes. 2. because nobody ever made a profile on him. He's been a high target for nearly 2 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
au_bsci_04 407 Posted June 29, 2014 Author Share Posted June 29, 2014 interesting. It seems like we were only going to be taking one QB next year, so would we already be done at the position if he commits? If we don't get Francios, Gibson, or Jackson and hold with only Queen, there is a possibility we take 2 next year. Not sure we'd take 2 DT, so not sure where that would leave Pass, but....

It depends on what happens with the 2015 class. If we only take 1 in the 2015 class then we MAY take 2 in 2016. If we get a 2nd QB in the 2015 class then we will take 1 in 2016.

Guest jojo1515 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 No point in accepting a commit from anybody outside the top 100 a year and a half early as you still have a year and a half to get the best possible players you can....unless its just an absolutely perfect fit...so hopefully that is what this means should it happen. Not blown away by the film as far as qb goes...looks better as a RB in my completely unprofessional opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's also more highly rated than our current commit for '15 8 mos before NSD. Not sure I agree with your point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another falicy in his argument is assuming the Top 100 rankings a year and a half are valid. By that logic we should have never taken Rice or Buie.

JFDTiger80 790 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I watched Gaines highlights and I am very impressed. The kid was a sophomore last year. He is poised, has a strong arm and can run. I shouldn't say it but I will. He kind of reminds me of Cam. They have a similar style. I am impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is that you dont take that committment this early unless its a perfect fit. I belive in 2016 we should expect to be able to get almost any qb we want. If they are willing to accept the commit, then he must be a perfect fit, meaning he is on the top of our list. Wasnt a knock on accepting the commit, but a recognition that he must be our top target considering we could wait another year and a half if we felt there were others we wanted more.

Pass is the #1 DT, the others between Pass and Gaines are heavy leans to other schools. I haven't seen anything that indicates which is higher on the coaches board. Still don't see why you don't take the commitment and start building momentum with the anchor of a recruiting class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some early ratings will change dramatically over time. And some will not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
