JG is at a regional event in NJ hosted by 247 where kids try to win Opening invites. According to updates, He and his dad have on their TN gear. JG said Walker is his top target and they are going "back and forth" right now whatever that means. Also Jgs dad is " decked out" in TN gear working on Mitchell to come with them on their next TN visit

I'm pretty sure invite to The Opening means that Guarantano will be competing in the Elite 11 tourney hosted by Trent Dilfer. Will be sweet to see him repping the big orange on Nikes campus right after we announce all of our new Nike swag.....

Anyone know who the other 5 QBs already invited to the Elite 11 are? I hope Austin Kendall will be one. Would like to see him and JG competing against each other.

Jarrett Guarantano: The Tennessee quarterback commit from Oradell (N.J.) Bergen Catholic drips athleticism, and he’s a strong-armed passer that can make all the throws. The football came out of his hand with a different velocity than any other passer in attendance. Guarantano was money on a variety of routes Sunday.

I cannot see this guy not ending up the top QB overall in this 2016 class, when all is said and done. I've never been this excited about a QB commit since Peyton Manning.

He is already more highly rated than any Butch recruited QBs in the 247 composite and his stock will continue to climb. Wouldn't be surprised if he ends up at a 5 star on at least one site. He reminds me so much of Dobbs. Has a stronger arm than Dobbs did and his accuracy is better. He will be in the race with Dormady and Jones for the job in 2017. I'm excited to see what Sheriron jones can do as well.

JG being rated lower than Kendall is hilarious. JG will win us games by himself. Like Dobbs but better. He has Cam Newton potential.

Kendall is really good himself. I'm glad we got JG though. He seems to have that IT factor about him in terms of leadership. He is taking it upon himself to be lead recruiter while AK didn't do jack in that department

I like Kendall and still think he is a great QB but with the way I see the offense changing into some more pro style concepts, JG fits it better. Kendall will be a great QB as well but I think JG is the better player and fit.

This seems contradictory, seeing as how JG is viewed as more DT of the two.

Well butch has said his offense can be run with a pro style QB or a DT. And by pro style offense I mean more runs out of shotgun that have pro style blocking schemes. I honestly think DeBord will help our OL a whole lot.

Also he wants to play good football teams. Not the JV squads of the Big Ten

The great thing about JG is that he has the arm to be a pure pocket passer, but he's also incredibly athletic. That's why I think he fits the Cam Newton mold. Newton had a cannon but was also the most athletic guy on the field.

However, Cam was also 250lbs and built like a strong side defensive end. JG is more like a carbon copy of Colin Kaepernick. Same build. Same cannon arm. Same game breaking speed.

We got a special one here boys. He has the makings of a superstar.

True. Hopefully in 6-7 years, high school kids will be declared "the next Guarantano."
