Story regarding L. Scott and Brandon Harris

“So my height will always be my height. It’s only a number to me and I think the only number that really counts is the number of wins that you get.”

I guess i'm old school but i'm an alum and I love LSU and I actually care what kind of coach and player rep this great university.

---

I watched is highlights.

Quick and not too in depth observations.

Positives.

Kid has great awareness. A great deal of the good QB work is done prior to the snap. Scott appears solid in that area.

Solid running ability.

Reasonably strong arm. Not great, but decent enough.

Seems to choose the right receiver quickly.

Negatives.

Kind of has a funny throwing motion. It isn't bad per se, but it is a bit odd. Certainly not prototype.

Footwork setting to pass has to be worked on. I suppose you can get away with that odd back leg crouching thing he does in HS, but, if you're gonna play around 6 foot tall, you're gonna have to stand taller in the pocket in college.

I don't personally think his height is necessarily a deal breaker. I mean, it's not ideal obviously. Dude is never setting foot in the NFL at that size at QB. But, many guys have been successful in college not being ideal height.

Final though. Kid is obviously smart. And, especially in college, smart is a much bigger deal at QB than the average fan thinks.

He'll need to be smart. He's not going to out athlete the SEC. He's going to need to be a bit of Herb Tyler type guy who does the right thing more often than not and stays out of trouble on the field.

You might one watch more indepth.

- flips the ball 50+ yds in the 1st few minutes with a flick of the wrist
- 1900 yds rushing suggest more than decent running ability. Powerful and quick
- release is quick and compact.
- Go watch Russell Wilson's highlights in HS . Very similar in many respects.
- he doesn't need to be special in the SEC. It's a run heavy league, play action pass. Scotts skill set exceeds those requirements.
- Band wagon syndrome - it's what what I predict will happen when this kid takes us to a natty, and these TD experts are riding his nuts

Excellent story. He seems like the kind of QB that is a winner.

Looking forward to see what Scott does at LSU compared to what a prima donna peacock douche nozzle like Franks does at UF.

Height problem - Russell Wilson and Drew Breeze say hello. The distance between his ears is more important than the distance from the ground. Seems like Scott has that covered and the kid can definitely play ball.
