Not impressed. Looks like a good runner, but the arm strength does not look like its there. Plus if he is listed at 6'3" he's probably more like 6'1" which means he wont be able to see over the O line.

LOL. I'll trust out staff and BC's and Georgia's staff for that matter over you.

QB's who are listed at 6'3" are tall enough. If you assume he's 2 inches shorter than listed, you have to assume everyone else is 2 inches shorter than listed so it's irrelevant and why even bring it up? Does it matter if football 6'3" is legit 6'3 or actually only 6'1" All long as his 6'3" is the same as all other players 6'3" he will be just fine.

I've never understood the whole seeing over the line anyway. A person's eyes are probably 8 inches lower than the top of helmets so you would have to be 8 inches tallet than the oline to actually see over them.

Watched about 10 seconds and could tell the kid is a good prospect.

I actually thought his arm strength looked pretty good. And his list of offers-or at least teams interested in him-is pretty impressive. Me likey.

He's also probably 17 so could grown another inch or two who knows.

I graduated high school a touch over 6'. By the middle of my soph year I was 6'3. I was young for my class though.

I ran into my HS football coach at a basketball game about a year after I graduated. I was about 3" and 25 "good" pounds heavier. All he said was..."dammmnit Walker" and walked away. It was funny. Although it did make me think "what if" if my folks would have started me in school a year later.
