A quarterback protege of sorts that has flashed some arm talent over the years on both Friday nights and on the camp circuit. Owns a stocky frame having measured roughly 6-foot, 210 pounds in April of 2022. Got varsity snaps as an eighth grader at a storied Jacksonville Trinity Christian program and ended up leading the school to a Florida 2A state title as a freshman. Pretty mechanically sound for a youngster as he cultivated a quick release and found ways to generate plenty of velocity through his torso. Has operated primarily out of a single-back spread attack that likes to move him around and shown that he can extend plays as he goes through his first, second and third progressions. However, shouldn’t exactly be viewed as a true dual-threat talent as he isn’t one that’s going to beat too many defenders to the edge with his footspeed. Must keep progressing and learn how to cut down on the errant throws while improving the completion percentage, but has some tools to work with and has made it clear that he isn’t afraid to punch the timesheet and get better, which is certainly encouraging. Destined to take a redshirt year after reclassifying from the class of 2025 to the class of 2024 in November of 2022 as he’s on track to start college classes at just 16 years old. Biggest thing once he arrives at the school of his choice will likely be learning how to process at a high level and figuring out how to keep drives alive while under duress, especially if he’s dealing with all the twitched-up pass rushers that patrol the SEC week in and week out.

Power-5 Starter


lol what? I've never noticed that on 247 but do they change their projection once they enter senior year? For where they rank him simply saying "power-5" doesn't seem to be right. Usually they grade them at 1st-2nd-3rd round nfl talent etc. Power-5 is usually graded for lower end players. Seems like an even worse projection considering his ceiling is huge for his age when he enters college.

He’s out there throwing dimes. Quick releases, nice footworks, good pocket awareness, gonna be a great QB for us.

Well On3 ranked him at 210 overall and the #16 QB. Pretty big drop from his 2025 ranking. Not surprising since he didn't commit to Georgia or Bama.

I'm assuming he's not finished growing and will end up being taller than 6 ft.

Well On3 is a rag tag operation.

Going to go out on a limb and say this had a whole lot more to do with Sayin's random commitment out of nowhere. Colin must have told the staff recently.

he does what many quarterbacks in HS don't do until the next level

If he scrambles out of the pocket and sees green space in front of him he will still drop a dime down the field while on the run instead of just taking it himself up the field

Hurley is the second 5 star we’ve pulled from Trinity Christian Academy. The other was CB Kevin Toliver II

To be kind of fair to On3, they didn’t have a big ranking on him from the get go. I believe all they did was plug him in to the 24 QB class with the grade he already had. Which was a 90 overall, which isn’t all that great for a QB.
