QB evaluation from camp
Posted on 6/9/10 at 8:29 pm
Posted on 6/9/10 at 8:29 pm
This is my own opinion of what I saw this past week at the camp. The best qbs from the state were there as was Justin Worley from South Carolina.
Justin Worley-If we offer this kid it will be a huge mistake imo. He has a very awkward throwing motion and was not very impressive from what I saw of him. I was expecting much better from the offer sheet that I saw that he had. He is a very tall qb which is to his advantage, but I thought he was probably ranked number 4 out of the top in state qbs.
Zach Oliver- Throws a very catchable ball and seemed to be accurate from what I saw. He has average arm strength imo ,but seems to be a good athlete. He is definately not 6'4. I would say he is lucky to be 6'2. Probably closer to 6'1.
Dak Prescott- Definately the best looking qb there as for as physical attributes. He was inaccurate on some of his throws but had the strongest arm and quickest release out of the qbs there. I thought he was the biggest suprise of the camp.
Stevie Douglas-Good sized qb that threw the ball well from what I saw. Footwork can be improved imo.I think the biggest question on this kid is the competition he has played in the home school league, and how well he could adjust to other competition. The speed of the game multiplies as you move up in classes, and leagues(hs,college,professional), which means him going to an SEC school would be a HUGE jump coming from a home school league. Would love to see him play real competition and see how he would fare.
Other than these qbs noone really stood out. These were the top 4 imo.

So basically what you're saying is, LSU is fricked right now until they can find a better QB to recruit? Thanks!

He might not be in your opinion but if they take an instate quarterback he is a viable option and he will be great where ever he lands.

Prescott would be the only player I would even CONSIDER to offer around here, especially those 4 that you mentioned. We are gonna need TWO out of staters in this class

I have heard the exact opposite.

Zack is definitely a legitimate 6'3 pushing 6'4. My brother who went to school with him and is a little over 6'4 has stood next to Zack and he is a shade shorter than my brother.

Biggest surprise is probably true, but strongest arm is very hard to believe.

Pretty much the case.

any other observations from camp, players at other positions who stood out?
great info btw
as for qb this year, I hope there is someone from out of state who we can get in on... that Dak kid does sound like a player but a project as well

Was this the camp that nothing was supposed to be reported on due to compliance issues?
There were a couple other good showings, but the QBs were of most importance.

Maybe we could get Matt Barkley to tranfer,now. Probably his best chance at a bowl game.

Poor Barkley had nothing to do with this and will never have a shot to play in a Rose Bowl.
That really sucks for him.
But frick him. He went to USC
