His highlight tape looks good (I know, I know), but I like his size and he looks to have good arm strength and accuracy. He can also move a little bit. I really think he is underrated.

Hes a big lefty. I like the way he steps up in the pocket and throws. I think he could be like Joe Burrow if he works as hard.

He's a lefty and has made a nice jump from his JR to SR season. Mobile for a big kid and throws well outside the pocket. With dad being a SB winning QB he is ahead of the curve in development. Good player on a mediocre team.

That's all I've got.

EDIT - Jack Daniel beat me to it.

Well not this year.
They lost in the State Championship game on Saturday.
They were very good this year and Max had a lot to do with it.

He did not consider UGA because Georgia Fired Mark Richt. I was told the Family was upset about the Firing. Max's Mother is Mark Richt's Sister. One reason he wound up at LSU is because Brad Johnson is friends with Moffitt. Max's Brother Jake is going to be a 5 Star recruit in 2 years. I would suspect he will follow Max to LSU

I watched him play. He has a cannon arm, big and will only get stronger. He tended to over stride a bit which slowed down his delivery...his arm is strong enough that he will be able to stand taller on his delivery and snap the throw. He seemed to look down his receiver, but most high school QBs tend to do that. He has high football smarts according to his coaches. Not an agile runner, but can cover ground with his long legs. I see a lot of up side to him and he comes from a good pedigree. Given a year or so and he will be a very good QB IMO.

Yep I heard the same about the same thing and that he would have gone to Miami if Richt had been there. Zero percent chance the family would ever consider UGA.

Former pro qb’s son...has a far above average understanding of the position and good frame. I think he will be playing in a couple of years.

No they weren't. They were damn good.

What a stupid myth.
