This kid played at a low level school in PA. They won the state title, but a single Div 1 player at that level can usually deliver greatness without turning a sweat.
He had some rediculous games. He might play 2.5 quarters, run the ball 8 times for 200+ yards, and throw 8 times for 300+ yards. Imagine plopping Lebron James into a Middle school game, and you get the drift.
Since he was not in school for Spring Football, his learning curve will be through the roof. The worst players he faces in the big 10 are worlds better than the best kids he saw in HS, only now there is an entire team of them.
I say he barely plays next year, if at all. RS much more likely.
