Comments on: On Quarterbacks in 2010 http://www.ourhonordefend.com/2009/02/on-quarterbacks-in-2010.php we will fight to the end for O-HI-O, but we can't promise to be any good at it Sat, 11 Feb 2012 03:37:39 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: iball http://www.ourhonordefend.com/2009/02/on-quarterbacks-in-2010.php/comment-page-1#comment-1760 iball Tue, 03 Mar 2009 00:51:21 +0000 http://www.ourhonordefend.com/?p=704#comment-1760 Why would we go after a drop back guy now? After watching TP, wouldn't other QB's in his mold make more sense in terms of continuity of a system? If Nick is a stud, I'll take him, but it seems he could get lost in the shuff ala Boeckman. Also, maybe its the TP lover in me talkin, but I watch Braxton Miller on a regular basis, and I'll stop watching football if that kid doesn't eventually get mentioned for Heisman, seriously, it's like that.

He's also a pretty good runner, though not the freakish athlete that Pryor was. That said, I'm not sure about upside, or ceiling. He could also stand to put on some more weight. 2010 recruiting is still so very young and we'll see a lot more of Nick in the future to verify his skills, especially when I've gathered that Gretzky's kid is as good as he is. If the offer sheet he has doesn't suggest he's a top-level QB prospect, it's mostly a function of it only being February. The fact that LSU offered -- and that I think Alabama is about to -- already confirms to me that he's legit. I think Oaks Christian is also going to take on an Ohio HS in the Herbstreit Challenge, so we'll get to see for ourselves.

Don't know enough myself to say but I'm always suspicious of legacy kids. That Montana name can easily lead to a biased view of his film to the tune of a couple recruiting stars. Especially with the Dame connection... I dunno…is this Montana kid even very good? Don’t know enough myself to say but I’m always suspicious of legacy kids.

Rich alumni won't know what hit them! With this invincible duo, we could almost retire the national debt!
