They don't always know what's up with great QBs.

MVP's of past elite 11s...

2010 = Jeff Driskell - Remains to be seen, not a great start
2009 = Jake Heaps - BUST, beat out this year at BYU, tranferred
2008 = Aaron Murray - Very good
2007 = Blaine Gabbert - Very good

Hard to find older stuff than that...but you get the picture.

I saw the camp as a Navy Seals'ish mental test. Daily improvement and growth were stressed. Kiel has supreme athletic ability and he probably never had to face the scrutiny that Dilfer applied.

The dude will be a stud. He'll have time to get coached up, while Mett wins championships.

That's elite 11 not at the army AA game right now.

How long ago was that?

I thought that film was shot today

Eta, that was before his senior season

Why is it that all the previous reviews about him that I read were about how he was clearly the #1 QB in the country even after the Elite 11 camp? All of a sudden he wasn't even one of the best 11?

Some of you buy into all this rivals shite and rivals is notorious for dropping players' rankings and putting up less than flattering reviews once they've dissed/passed on Bama.

Despite better numbers by a ton of QBs, this guy was unanimously rated the #1 Pro-style QB on the sites and in some is the #1 overall rated QB. He showed good accuracy and timing on many of the those routes in the video. He showed a good to very good spiral on the ball, and did so with random receivers running routes that he's never worked with before.

It could easily be those WRs in the drill not running the routes correctly thus making the passes seem "off". Keep buying into the Bama version of things though since he turned them down for LSU.

Is there any film on how well this guy runs the ball? Because Les looks for his QB to have a "want" to carry that pigskin.

Kicking Bama's butts? Really? As for Kiel, when he picked Indiana Alabama pursued an other QB and landed one of the top QBs in the great state of Texas. OnceKiel decommited from IU, he called Bama and asked if we had a spot for him and they told him no. So, at least know that GK is a Bama reject and not the other way around

Cadello, I registered and responded to that dumb arse.

Kiel is tearing shite up in practice

Eta, here is my response:

So you think the 40th rated qb you guys have committed is better then a stud like Kiel? Lol, ok. I love gump delusion

If you goggle his highlights there are some nice runs

He said in an interview he likes to run over people, but understands that in the SEC he won't be doing much of that

I read alot of the reviews from the camp before he committed 2 weeks ago. All of the reviews were positive and they said he was solid in every category. Then they said "he didn't wow them" and that is the reason he was not chosen as one of the 11.
