Offers by UCLA, Tennessee, Arizona State are supposed to impress me? (I'll give you Holgorsen at Okie State if you want to press the issue).

Rivers has enough legit FBS offers. Those are not run of the mill mid majors.
One or two decent offers could be an anomaly. Not a half dozen. It's a legit collection of offers.

How old were you when Rivers was in high school?
It's amazing how much the Rant knows about every high school player across America, even how high schoolers played when the Ranter was probably 12 years old.

P. Rivers was not offered by Alabama or Auburn. That is how he ended up at NC State. Worked out nice for him.

Heard this last night. I dont think he's 6'7 but the comments from the HS Coach are interesting.

I personally saw him play in the first round of the playoffs this year versus Boaz HS. I don't think he's 6'7". He's definitely tall..but 6'7" would be stretching it by an inch or two. I was at field level walking the field pre-game and got to see him there...and saw him from press-box level during the game. He's got an arm. His decision making will need to be improved as he threw a couple of "against the grain" passes that could have went for pick sixes. No doubt..he's got talent...and a quick release. How well he does he manage the game? Hard to tell from one game.

Auburn's Fairely was a 3 Star. So was Jacob Hester! I'm excited we have the Kid! He will have unlimited resources available for him in the off season.

Hester was a 2 star because he was listed as a full back that was a tad light

Stephen lives about 12 miles from me & played for Athens hi. He is 6-7 & won the Mvp in the AL. vs Miss. Hi school all stars! 
His Dad was a high school coach.

Al & Aub. turn down Phillip Rivers his older brother. How did that work out for them?

"This guy is 6'7"
Maybe we could put him on the basketball team.

quote:You know way less about CFB than you think you know. Do you happen to know who UCLA's HC/OC are? Norm Chow is considered one of the best QB coaches alive. You probably couldn't even name Arizona State's HC, much less their OC. ASU jumped about 60 spots in scoring offense in their new OC's first season.

Never a safe assumption on the rant, no matter the topic.
