DAG 33,852 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 I sure hope he is more Baker Mayfield and less JS. Look like he has just enough athletic ability to evade defenders but accurately pass down field 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
around4ever 4,139 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 We do know that Bo has a little brother in middle school who could be better than Bo, don't we? I hope Gus handles Bo right and doesn't screw him up. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look like he has just enough athletic ability to evade defenders but accurately pass down field In my very novice and non expert opinion that amounts to ummm NOTHING lol he is not as fast straight line than stiddy but he has a heck of a lot more quickness than him and especially lateral quickness. Now we will have to see what happens when the rush is bearing down on him with college kids but in high school he keeps his eyes down field and does not look at the rush like stidham does. Stidham has a absolute hose for a arm. Like Stidham can make every throw. He has the prototypical NFL qb arm. Bo is not there yet and may never be but his QB instincts are so much better than stidhams. He is not just a 1 read guy like stidham is. Bo forreal is special like @bigbird has always said. He has IT. He has things that you cannot teach. He is in high school and anticipates throws way better than stidham. If he was 3 inches taller and 25 more pounds heavier he would no doubt be the number 1 player in the country. The college weight room is going to do wonders for him. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially because I bet he is going to tear up the shorts and t shirts circuit this summer like he did last year. That ranking is going to keep going up. I def could see him eventually reaching 5 star status. Edited January 11, 2018 by GwillMac6 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was rooting for my Alma Mater AHS, but I was happy after the game knowing those two guys would be suiting up in Orange and Blue! Same here... my kids go to AHS and missing that last second field goal in the 4Q was sicking... Asa is the real deal! #GoBlackBears 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing that jumped out at me watching his film was his feet in the pocket. Always moving. Never stationary until he plants and throws. Looked like he was in a QB camp drill in the middle of the game. I don't know how much that matters or if he's really that much different than other top guys in that regard, but it was just something that struck me. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are always moving yet his shoulders are squared and his eyes remain downfield. If he can feel the rush and keep doing it...THAT WOULD BE GREAT. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeek 16,525 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) Very excited about this kid. I love getting quarterbacks who have won championships because they don't choke when they get there at different levels. A big reason I was excited about Cam was his JUCO championship. Yes the competition levels are different but the mentality of it is the same. Just 4 interceptions with that many passes is insane. My only hesitation is I hope that he fills out that frame a good bit before he goes to start. I know he will but it's just something I'd make a priority. If Stidham is still here for his senior year (correct me if I'm off by a bit) then he should definitely redshirt to bulk. Edit: I forgot to say the most important part...

I've seen some also call that happy feet for a negative connation for QBs. IDK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always interpreted happy feet as a guy who's looking to get out of the pocket at the first sign of pressure, but I'll defer to the coaches on that. Here's an example of Manning doing it, albeit maybe not a good example: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaker 2,457 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 I view 'happy feet' as likely a positive because they can slip and slide more readily. I think solid/stable feet and I think Dan Marino. I think of happy feet - Peyton Manning. Neither good nor bad, depends how the QB reacts under a collapsing pocket.
