'10 OH QB Andrew Hendrix

Miami is going to be good in a few years. I tell you what I went on Youtube and watched Marve in Miami. He makes some sick plays in college too. Now his numbers in the end were not the best in the world, but give him some coaching and some playmakers and this kid will get the job done in a big way. He is a HUGE pick up. I just hope when he comes here he works hard and acts like a leader. That is the biggest challenge.

I highly doubt that is the case. Kiffin has been VERY selective, as evidenced by the fact that he told Boyd no thanks this year (5*...which I still think was a terrible mistake...if I remember correctly he told the kid to look elsewhere before he even had OC Chaney on staff...obviously many other talent evaluaters thought very highly of him, and he was very sharp at the Army AA game...Co-MVP with Bryce Brown...to which Kiffin reportedly tried to get back in thereafter, but had already burned that bridge)...CLK appears to be doing the same with Nick Montana (whom the likes of Bama and a dozen others have already offered).
If he's taking a prospect, it's because he thinks they can legitimately compete for the starting spot. Just like in Spring training, most of our current prospects are on even footing...none really stand heads and shoulders above the rest as a "can't miss"

Sure would've liked to see T. Boyd competing with JC and Stephens this fall. That one hurt, IMHO.

“I assume I will have more offers coming in when they see my tapes. Northwestern and Tennessee has been recruiting me pretty hard. Cincinnati being close is recruiting me hard and so is Indiana, and I like all those schools.” Hendrix said

Because I know the coaching staff really rolled out the red carpet for me, and that won me over a little bit with the facilities and everything. I was touring facilities I wouldn't even be a part of because they're building a whole-new multi-million dollar building on the far end of the practice facility. I was touring a weight room and locker room that will be obsolete. I know the stadium I saw is getting some incredible renovations.

Definitely, it was definitely a good atmosphere. It's really like the atmosphere here. It's not the exact same offense we do here, but I got a good feel for the offense they run which is pro style. It just seemed like someplace I could see … really they operate just like we do here. A fun atmosphere but when it's time for business, it's time for business.

Hendrix quotes from the new Rivals article. John Brice said on the Rivals board that he feels like we're in good shape with both Hendrix and Scroggins and that he thinks we get Marve. He also said we're not out of it for Heaps but that it will be hard to pull him away from UW. Hendrix's HS coach raved about his arm strength (Hendrix also pitches for the bball team, with a 92 MPH fastball) and tremendous potential as a DI QB.

I should have made myself a little clearer. Marve comes in, has two years of eligibility left. Hendrix sits, grows and matures into a starting QB while Marve is here.

92 mph fastballs get big money. Is there a chance he will play baseball and skip the football thing altogether? He could easily add four to five mph getting trained properly. No questioning this kid's arm strength.

Boyd was a 4 star with a blown out knee. He would not have competed for anything this fall except rehab on his knee.

It's no use. That information has been given on this board I don't know how many times, and people still come out of the woodwork and say, "boy, I wish we would have signed Boyd to compete this year." I am convinced it is information that people don't want to know or be real, and that is why they refuse to absorb it.

I like the ones that quote Boyd saying "my knee feels ok and maybe I'll be ready". Yes, because an ACL tear heals in 6 months.

I agree. I don't understand why it's still an issue. With the connections this staff has with Marve's father I wonder how long they've known Marve might be coming here?

in most cases yes but my high school team had two guys that were clocked at 92-94 consistently and are not in the pros. They were drafted but it takes much more than a 92mph fastball to make it. There are a ton of kids that throw that hard out there but is it for one inning or throughout the game or is that there only pitch..etc.You go to minors and your 92 mph fastball is the same as the guy next to you but what else do you have?

Yeea not that easy to jump 4-5mph unless he just has a horrible windup. To say he is throwing 92mph I would say he is not too far off mechanically.

anyways the summary is you choose big time college football if you have NFL potential over baseball unless you are a top 3 round highschool draft pick getting paid bank. The rest of the guys get paid next to nothing.

92 mph isn't that common at 17 yrs old but you are correct about draft selection. I was assuming better training, mechanics and a couple of years of growing for the velocity increase. I think he is on the rise and should have a cannon as a QB. Wouldn't be disappointed at all in landing him.

Could Hendrix get bumped to a 5 star on Rivals with a strong summer camp showing followed by an awesome senior season?

It looks like he and Scroggins are in a good position for increasing their stock with strong camps since both were relatively unknown due to less than stellar junior seasons

Anything is possible but I think he'll move up to a high 4 probably the same if not better for Scroggins. I think Scroggins is better but I would be happy with Hendrix if we didn't get Scroggins.

hey all, I go to Moeller High School and went to many of the games this past football season. At the beginning of the year Hendrix was awful and we were calling for our backup. In the middle of the season you could see his progression really starting to take place. At the end of the year he was just incredible. Our playoff loss to Colerain he marched us down the field and put us into position to win the football game. We lost because one of our recievers "fumbled" (questionable call) the ball. This kid knows how to play in the prime time and if he does go to UT you will be extremely impressed with him. His offensive stats aren't as good as they could be because we are very offensive oriented. We have a soon to be junior running back, Richie Dyer, that will be bursting onto the recruiting scene very soon. This kid is the real deal. Also the way our offense and well our school is set we really don't have a tall reciever for him to throw to. We have decently fast kids with great hands but no tall recievers. Also if anyone on here is with the actual UT staff you need to get his left tackle Jeff Tanner locked up. This kid has offers from Vandy and I believe Stanford (among others) and he just completely destroys people in his path. As for Hendrix my biology teacher, who teaches Hendrix in anatomy, says that he is leaning extremely hard on UT but I wouldn't speculate on that.
