the competition level is not what you see in district play, and no one is arguing it's identical to pad ball


Except they were?

Couldn't be further from the truth. The passing lanes and speed of the game differ greatly from what these kids typically see--closer to the next level. QB's have to anticipate throws, make quick reads, and the pressure is intense.


All I did was back up this post, because its pretty much spot on

But it's not very useful for QBs and LBs. QBs face no pressure and LBs don't have to read pass.

Ok. If you think there is comparable talent playing district summer 7on7 then you simply haven't seen the event. This thing looks like the opening squads when they go 7on7.

Who argued it's identical to pad ball? No one. It's useful. Disagree?

Fine, but ask yourself if it is coincidence or not that California Texas and Florida produce so many d1 qbs and they also have travel 7on7 youth and high school leagues.

Baton Rouge is just getting into the scene, and I can tell you that we are seeing big improvements in some kids because of the extra reps. Especially in youth ball they rarely get the chance to work on the passing game once the pads go on.

Why are you so sour about it? Img isn't hosting the event and stealing players, actually many of these recruits are visiting lsu tommorow.

Did jimmy cut your son or something?
