TheLoneCougar Adrielle?!

Accolades refer to his accomplishments at the high school level. He doesn't have full control over who sends him offers

or what recruiting services rate him.

I don't find it "silly" as you condescendingly say, for a kid who is won a State Championship, is the Player of the year in his level, Region MVP, two sport athlete, threw for 3,400+ yards, 38 TDs to 4 INTs, and very smart (looking now beyond the football field but probably has some translation/overlap).

I don't know why he hasn't been more highly recruited, but if you didn't have a star system and looked at his High School accomplishments, would you turn this guy away?

There is a lot to like and again from a High School standpoint, he has achieved everything you possibly can. Nothing is missing from his achievements.

Love his film. Looks all of 6’3” with a strong and accurate arm and can run. How

Anyone know if he’s a mission first guy?

Soupie

His bio says he was on the seminary council. So probably a mission first guy.

My youngest brother is in his class at Bountiful. Says he’s definitely mission first.

His Dad is in the stake presidency and works for the church.

If it’s like many QB recruits lately, it’ll be fun to speculate about his future

That probably means no Lyons

I don't agree with that. Different classes. Geilman's recruitment is late

After Lugo transfer, it leaves room for 2.They also have Su”esu’e coming in 26

I’m pretty sure he’s home and will be playing Linebacker or another position

Really good QB. Looks like a steal.

Look at his development from 23 to 24 in terms of TD to Int ratio.

Dec 20, 7:13am

Funny how CB bemoans the fact that we aren't getting good LDS/Utah talent, then we take a kid who has all the accolades

Dec 20, 7:20am

I’ll take a coach’s assessment over the journalists who run 24/7 any day. We fixate on the star ratings, coaches watch

Yep, there is a game. The 7v7 club coaches play the game with the players.

Those numbers are largely a function of volume. There are far fewer recruits at

Of course but the point is there are plenty of kids at each level who are high quality

Here's hoping he's our Josh Allen.

"All of the accolades" would generally include a bunch of offers and a high star ranking.

Dec 20, 1:29pm

So getting a star rating and scholarship offers are not accolades?

Josh Allen didn’t have any offers out of HS either. Maybe some got it wrong 😑

This is a huge factor in the recruiting game. 7v7 and camp circuit is expensive.
