I have heard of Gerald Jones. That Troy Smith guy he played for Tulane or something right??

His arm strength is not weak. His accuracty might be questioned, but not his arm strength.

I like the thought of this kid playing QB...but I've been dying for a dual threat since Schaeffer after all

You mean taking low "star" ranked players from some small school in Knoxville area? I know what you mean. Last year we picked up that low "star" ranked player who cam in late and ended up returning punts and playing CB as a true freshman. The sky is falling.

Sorry but if we get this guy I really dont see him playing QB. I believe its in his best interests IF he wants to go pro. He is simply not tall enough.

But if he has no interest in going pro then im probably wrong.

Thats the point. He is expected to get taller. His father is much taller than him. He is young to be a senior. He has a good build. They hope he grows a few more inches. At that point, he would have a shot of being a good QB. If he doesn't grow, then we didnt waste much because he has the athletic position to play WR/DB.

If anybody wants to see the kid play, Alcoa is in the 2-a state title game tomorrow at MTSU at 7 p.m. If you can't make it to the game, it is being covered by channel 30 in middle TN. I don't know about the rest of the state.

Alcoa scored on its first possession, recovered a fumble on Goodpasture's first offensive play and let quarterback Randall Cobb do his thing in a 35-3 win Friday in the Class 2A BlueCross Bowl at Middle Tennessee State's Floyd Stadium.
"There was no coming back," Goodpasture running back Tracy Mayes said. "We played scared. You need heart to beat them. I guess we didn't have the heart."
If this story sounds familiar, there is a reason.
Alcoa (14-1) won its ninth state championship, its state-record fourth consecutive title and third in a row over Goodpasture (13-2), each season defeating the Cougars by at least 28 points.
Goodpasture won three of its four trips to the 2A final between 1995-2001, but has since grown accustomed to the runner-up trophy.
Cobb finished with 127 of Alcoa's 273 rushing yards and scored two touchdowns to pace the Tornadoes, who stormed to a 13-0 lead in the opening 6:33

How tall is Chase Daniels?

Or for that matter, how tall is Erik Ainge? :crazy:

Thoughts on Cobb from the little bit of the game I saw. He looks a lot like Gerald Jones. Maybe just a little bit less athletic though. He looked really good.

I think Jones might have a step or so on him but Cobb sure is shifty, I was on the fence but now I believe in him.

It really annoys me when people throw out the "oh, this guy is too short/slow/small to play".

All I want to see is a playmaker. If people and coaches want to drool all over themselves over some players metrics, then they need to get a job with the NFL and spend some time in the combines... :shakehead:

Chris Leak.. Troy Smith (Heisman). Both played in the NC last year.

Height is overrated in NCAA.

Watched the game last night. First time I've seen Cobb. I must say he was impressive and will be a nice addition to the team. I can say this without any hesitation. He can take and give a hit. I saw him absorb more hits last night than Ainge in 4 years.
