A silver lining in every cloud QB related

Ive watched both Phillip Ely(Alabama) and Justin Worley(Tennessee) this weekend. There is no way in hell Ely is a top 5 Pro-Style QB and Worley is not even ranked in the top 30. Ely looked like crap last night and is surrounded by some of the best talent in all of HS football. Plant HS is ranked #1 and #2 in the nation by Rivals and ESPN respectively. Ely threw for 154yds, 80 of which came on a swing pass that went for a TD on the first play of the game. He did miss most of the 2nd quarter with an injury, but his team was already down by a couple of scores and en route to getting blasted 48-10. He played the whole second half.
Stephen Rivers is on a team that has no O-Line and no skill players and they get blasted by Hartsell #5 in 5A in Alabama. Rivers goes 8 of 12 for 86yds 1 pick and rushes for a TD. Justin Worley is on a team that has a O-line and some good skill players. His numbers 22 of 34 for 314yds, 5 TD's and 2 picks, and they blast the team with the #1 player in the country (Jadeveon Clowney) 42-20. I also think Jadeveon Clowney's team is very good and is better than the Manatee HS team that rolled Plant.
I guess what Im saying is, I think Worley and Rivers are very similar. Check out their film. They are about the same in stature, Rivers at 6-6 is 2 inches taller and they both weigh 196 pounds. If Rivers was on a team like Worley's he could put up good numbers. I dont think his stats will be great this year, but I think we will be ok down the road, because I think his skill set is basically the same a Worleys and I think he is gonna be good.

IT WAS ONE GAME.
Plant looked like that last year against Manatee in the opener. Guess what? They won every other game, including a win over Manatee in the 5A playoffs, in route to a state title.

Worley plays on a powerhouse Northwestern program that is always contending for championships. Clowney's South Pointe team didn't even deserve to be on the same field as them and the only reason it was televised was because of Clowney.

Basing your opinion of Ely on one game? Not very smart. Have seen a bit of film of Ely and he has the arm to be a big time talent. If he had signed with the Tigers I am sure your opinion would be much different.
