My son has been wanting to attend MPA. How serious is this camp as far as scouts go? Know it's top notch instruction but don't know how serious it is when it comes to offers

My son went. Not an offer camp. Tons of information. The Mannings try to get around to each group at some point. Great coaches on the High School and College level working it. Nightly info sessions are tremendous. Obviously if he is that good then someone will take notice. Want an offer go to College school camps. Air it Out Saturday night of camp is fun to watch.

This camp is more about a great experience for the kids, not about getting offers. This will be my son's 3rd year to go. I did not go last year to watch but my buddy said there were a lot of kids there that had no business attending.

You should send your sons with "Go to hell, Ole Miss" shirts.

Would you recommend this camp for a 12 yr old? We were at the beach several years ago and I looked over and see PM & EM throwing balls to a group of kids...including my son. They must have mentioned their camp because it's rare that a week goes by without my son asking if he's going to their camp.

This is what the camp has become. It's a great experience but over the last few years it has almost become the summer camp of "little league dads"who are in to perception and not reality. But still a great experience for those who attend

i went in 7th grade, it was a really good camp then with great instruction but that was 13 or 14 years ago

I went some years ago, so not sure if it has changed since then, but sounds like it might have.
To be honest, your experience will depend on your main 2 coaches of your group - if they are good and want to help, great. Generally the coaches (college QBs or former) are well known.
I don't remember us throwing that much, which I know is shocking for a QB camp.
The only thing I actually remember, football learning related, was when Peyton came over to our group and was showing and talking about things our coaches didn't.

I went 15 years ago which is a long time to compare my take on the camp. But then it was a very good camp with great instruction. I learned more in a couple days there then my entire year under normal high school coaching. Payton was very active in our group it seemed and actually showed me how to break down film. I'll always have respect for someone of his caliber taking the time to help a average high school athlete out. And yes we thew the hell out the ball...my arm was jello afterwards.
