Well, he's certainly tall enough to get the job done. But someone help me out, does running a 4.8 forty qualify you as a "mobile QB"?

40 times are like batting averages. Can he run or not? Just like can he hit or not?

I bet you if we measured Dunbar's 40yd time we'd all be disappointed; but I'd take him at RB 10 out of 10 times.

Tebow didn't have to outrun anybody. He could power through tacklers. He was very quick and had good agility for a guy his size. Straightline speed wasn't his strongest point.

give these guys (still uncommitted) some consideration

Taylor Reed

Cody Miller

Joe Minden

Joe would be my favorite outta the group...plus would drive some Coppell folks into the stadium

an article about his most recent game Article "He completed 10 of 11 passes for 204 yards and two touchdowns in the first quarter alone." against Midland...

Of course you always run just a little bit faster when DE's and LB's from schools like Alabama are chasing you.

Like I say about my ex wives... I just have to be able to run faster scared than they can run mad.

Let's see here, Stafford and Sanchez were (NFL Combine) mid 4.8/4.9 respectfully in the 40. Based on most of the talent experts on this board, they are chumps with no FB

future. Guess they just know the right people or have pictures of someone to be where they are. Or maybe 40 times are way over rated. I dunno.

Clint Granger is the other QB prospect listed by Vito. This is an article on the Pierce CC Clint Granger (there is another with that name at Coffeyville CC). He is to visit this weekend.

He seems to be more of a pocket passer than a dual-threat quarterback. He has good size and decent quarterback speed. I know that we need depth but with two years eligibility left how much production can Canales expect?

WHY WHY WHY a JC QB? We don't need that. We have QB talent galore...IMO. We need JC Defensive Players without a doubt. If you want a 4 Yr. you better get Coppell's QB who is leading them to the next round of the playoffs against SLC tomorrow. Kid is a killer QB and is slipping under the radar because he only started his senior yr... but he came to play. No reason why he doesn't get an offer when only Air Force and SFA have and we are on his list. A solid 4-yr QB get.

Coppell isn't playing Southlake, Guyer is.

I don't know if he is a FBS QB or not, but...

A combine 4.9 is a heck of a lot faster than a high school coach hand held stop watch "4.9".

I agree, unless we have the expectation that Dodge, Thompson, Tune (if he's granted a Medical RS)and Baine cannot go next year, we really don't need to use a ship on a JUCO QB. If we are going to offer ships to JUCO's it needs to be D-tackles & Linebackers....and they need to be on campus in the spring.

Doesn't it matter what Canales and McCarney want for their offense? You really and truly think Canales wants one of those to be his QB? He didn't recruit a single one of them, and I highly doubt the recruiting efforts of the previous staff are near being on par with what Canales is used to recruiting.

Absolutely! We need defensive linemen, LB's, etc. Take the JC quarterback and make him into a linebacker.

The difference is they run pro style offenses and we want a mobile quarterback for our system. Their 40 times are irrelevant since they aren't expected to run plays such as the read option that require the QB to be a legitimate threat to run.
