i will give my 100% unprofessional recruiting analyst on this kid.
I've seen a lot of his games in person. He may prove me wrong, but, as of his junior year games i watched, this kid is nowhere near ready for the field of a Big 12 team as a qb. Now if we're recruiting him for another position, then this entire evaluation is bogus…
But as a QB:
Fathers the coach, play calling has been called into question in the past both privately and publicly. Running backs and Oline do the majority of the work to get down the field and then suddenly the play calling changes. Then its zone read Moore, trap Moore, dive Moore. Everyone knows its going to happen and the kid still finds a way to get into the end zone. But, that does not make him the caliber of player to ever warrant a QB Schollie to a big 12 team. Not very good in the passing department, and majority of long pass plays are dinks that someone takes to the house. Not extremely accurate and although his footwork is decent in form, its not quick and sharp like you would like out of someone running our scheme. Back to this strife because it is huge part of my opinion. It has created animosity on the team that has leaked out to social media on multiple occasions and even led to a decent player transferring for his senior season to an in town rival to be away from it.
Again, i have seen these games first hand not on tape. This kid is not even REMOTELY close to the tapes i've seen on AA, Grant, Sam or even Lenning. Their skill set as throwers was evident on tape. He's got good size, with decent power as a runner. But he's not a running back. This staff does not have time to take in a project player and mold him into their guy. He needs a lot of work on accuracy and that has been a problem with our qb's for a long long time. His decision making is usually good, but, if everything else is lacking, thats not enough for me to bet my future on him at the most important position on the team.
