Best QB in the STATE..!


Recommended Posts

"UT offered about 10-15 of scholarships to quarterbacks before Coleman, so don't listen to that stuff, cause they gave rides to other QB's before Coleman."

 

Would you mind providing the names of the 10-15 quarterbacks offered before Coleman for next year's freshman class?

The answer to this question has to be Sonny Gray :thumb:

 

The consensus seems to be BJ Coleman and Sonny Gray. Just curious though, have you seen both of these quarterbacks play. Honestly, I've seen BJ Coleman play one game, but I've never seen Sonny Gray play. However, the so-called "experts" at the college level feel BJ is better (or has more potential). Who truly knows? I usually use the Ryan Leaf/Peyton Manning theory when evaulating who the better athlete/QB is. That is, it's best not to do it until they play at the next level.

I think Gray will wind up being a pitcher at the college level (ala Drew Hayes from McKenzie) but he's a great high school football player at a school that has had some great quarterbacks in the past (ie Luke Powell & David Wolke).

Yeah, he'll be a pitcher, then soon in the MLB if he stays healthy. You don't come across too many juniors throwing a 94mph fastball, 87-89mph curveball.

Certainly:

 

Jimmy Clausen

John Brantley

Tyrod Taylor

Logan Gray

Mike Paulus

 

Pat Bostick

Joe Chaisson

Travaris Cadet

Joe Haden

G.J. Kinne

 

Bradley Starks

Cameron Newton

 

Those had all received offers from UT before Coleman got his in mid-late June. It doesn't take anything away from B.J. by the way, just saying that that quote was not accurate unless they were solely talking about the 200 QBs in Tennessee, or 200 other QB's besides these.
