Look, I get what you’re doing. You’re taking up for our own, and that’s a great thing. Maybe we have went a little overboard talking about this kid, but if he and his family come to HC, he’s one of our own too, and we take up for our own right? I don’t remember anyone saying anything bad about Bona in this thread. All we did was compare the two. Let’s not stoop to talking about the incoming kid’s athleticism and arm strength. I don’t think he’ll be close to either one of these, but Brady and Manning neither one are elite athletes or have overly strong arms. You don’t have to be either as a QB in our offense. I would almost guarantee the coaches could careless what we think, and they will put the best option in there that they think will win ball games. I talked to a parent that’s seen him throw recently, and they said he stood on the 40 and threw it through the goal post. That’s 50 yards as an 8th grader, I’d say that’s plenty of arm strength. We have at least 8 really good options on offense, I hope neither QB ever has to run for a yard. I’m all for taking up for our own, but if they come then they’re part of the family in my book. Don’t forget the Bona’s aren’t originally from HC either, they just happened to come a little earlier in life than the Damron’s.
