This guy has tools to be very good

But, but what about his noodle arm?

Can he throw a beer bottle though?

I wanna know what his 40 time is with a bag full of tacos and crab legs.

Level of competition looks weak. Mechanics look weak. Jmo

Level of post is weak..
Mechanics of intelligent thought is weak..

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

This kid can play...period.

In all seriousness, do you really think he looks impressive in that film?

We have blue, I mean orange pills prescribed to help with noodle arm. . Hopefully it lasts the 4 hours of a college football game. If longer then go to the ER.

Wonder if he sees my like?

Most everyone does except for you and noodles.

I don't think it's all that great and it doesn't look like great competition.

But he camped here, he's been evaluated and the coaches like him. And he's had a great off season on the camp circuit, where others also had high opinions of him.

Lss.. it's a high school highlight video.

Didn't move the needle with me one way or the other. Glad he's in board.

Agreed. They must’ve seen something they liked at camp, because that film is not good.

Not good is too strong — he’s making some plays. And it looks like he’s got some intangibles. It just looks like he’ll need some substantial development.

Yes I do...in my opinion "Mechanics" are waaaay overrated for college QBs. Escapability/mobility, touch and accuracy, arm strength and improvisational ability are what I believe are important. Robotic technicians are not the stars of college QBs...Elusive strong armed playmakers are. Kid dropped some beautiful passes in with touch in that vid, and scrambled his butt off.

I guess I read the OP wrong. He was specifically talking about that one game highlight. I think people who have watched his other highlights and camp film think he looks pretty good. Even if you scroll up a little and look at last weeks game he looked pretty good.

i agree. i think he's gonna be fine. i don't htink he's playing in a super compeitive conference in his high school region. but he excels in it, as one would hope he would given the talent he's displayed.

and that's ok. not everyone needs to be, nor should expected to be, a freshman aa the minute they step on campus.

The 400 M run is the true test of arm strength

Callahan said Maurer has made a case so far this season for being a 4 star.

 

[m1al]

.27 mark.... Dayummmm. Can you say mobile...

Ran a 4.6 40 at elite 11 with a broken bone in his foot.

good for him. aside from his ability, i think he's a great "story", and he's an easy kid to root for. hope he gets whatever accolades he's due.

I know someone actually called this guy "noodle arm" and that it has also become something of a joke in here, but I just watched the video Sleegro posted this morning. He's anything but a noodle arm. There are times it looks like he barely even tries (because he is moving in the pocket and just can't set himself to put a lot of mechanics into the throw, and throws it 20-30 yards.

Mills glares and adds to his ignore list.
