Yeah, they're both good QBs (Weigman seems more special than Klubnik to me), but preferring one of them to one of the two all-time 1.000 recruits just because he couldn't displace a Heisman finalist as a freshman high school senior seems weird.

That isn't my reasoning at all, I never expected Ewers to take the QB spot in '21, and with tOSU's QB room, even significant playing time in '22 wasnt a given. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy as hell he chose us when I can't think of a single team that would tell him no if he expressed some interest. My concerns with Ewers are mostly character related, (not based on any info that isnt apparent to a casual observer) he seems to have the physical skills. It's just unknown how he will respond to basically living up to the expectations not just from the perfect rating given him by the so called "experts", but also a very impatient fanbase that's quick to turn on players who struggle a bit at times..especially QB.

So much about Ewers character. I have yet to hear a negative thing about him as a player and a teammate. The kid passed on HS season to sign 7 figure NIL contract. I cant imagine anyone here telling their son that would be a bad idea. Seems the attitude thing is more about him taking advantage of a system that few recruits have the ability to do.

Let's be honest here. If he portaled to another team, we'd think he has at least a little douche in him. I'm sure fans of of other schools think so--and I'm OK with that. Can't wait until the spring game.

Yep. I’ve seen multiple aggy comments comparing him to Tater Tot Martell.

Yeah, I acknowledged the fact other players seem to like him in spite of the superficials. I have no doubt the kid has the skills to produce at a high level, and I hope any reservations I have about his overall psyche are unfounded. The kid is still 18, I'm thinking of him as a true Freshman in spite of a few months at tOSU and the NIL money already banked.

The mental scouting report I received from a friend who has a couple of kids at SLC was this: “my daughter had a couple of classes with him.  They’re in the same grade.  Ok kid.  Your average stud Hs qb.  Confident.  Not a rocket scientist.  Arrogant, but gets shit done.  Not sure I would want him to date my daughter, but he can be the qb for my college team every day of the week and twice on Sunday.”

That is impenetrable logic. 

"I have no idea how this super awesome recruit will react to expectations so I would prefer a lower rated recruit whom I also have no idea how they would react to expectations."

the variable you are looking for is m = moxie.  recruiting proof is 5 star 1.000 rated QB(assumed head case) = 4 Star(obviously not head case) * m.

I think the prospect of him becoming a serial killer is the optimistic outlook. With a sidearm like that, I'd be surprised if he's not already one.

There is no way he is an effective killer with mechanics like that, and the mullet makes him easy to pick out in a line up.

I think this is simple. Texas got bad QB play last year from both QBs. The numbers bear that out. Ewers is really talented, so you might as well get on the train now. If you dont, being a Texas fan next year is really going to suck for you

Dumbasses watch a camp highlight, proceed to make a complete dumb shit opinion on a 1.000 rated QB.

 

Dumbasses don't watch the high school game highlights that show his actual motion and make a smart well formulated opinion.

Part of his evaluation needs to be his leadership qualities too…which I haven’t seen discussed yet. Quinn is a natural born leader who all gravitate towards. I watched Southlake play a few times and whether it was on the field after a TD or on the sidelines in between drives, Quinn displayed so much emotion and passion for winning. I was very impressed. He’s not the entitled prick that he’s being portrayed as.

His performance vs Duncanville the year prior coming off sports hernia surgery in the playoffs tells me all I need to know about him. Hard to judge him in the state title game vs Westlake just because the Westlake machine is so good in all phases of the game. 

I think they beat Duncanville this year if he's their QB as well.

Because they don't understand QB evaluations, but arm angle is easy to see and they heard Gruden talk about it one time. This is all silly. 

Actual talent evaluators gave Ewers a perfect recruit ranking. I don't know if he'll be Trevor Lawrence, but I do know that internet Ewers truthers won't deflate my boner. 

Gruden built a good raiders team with rich Gannon throwing from all angles.

I can't find a gif for it, but The Wire had something exactly for this with Namond's ponytail.

You are right Dad, probably much better in the long run that she just gave him a blowjob in the janitor closet.

Best part of all of this, is that in that very highlight that you are referencing, Quinn throws the ball with timing, velocity, and accuracy that only a few people on this planet can, and yet here we are bitching about side arm delivery.

Patrick Mahommes throws it from angles nobody ever considered until he lit the NFL up.

Just to be clear, I'm not one the guys in here talking about QE's throwing motion. On target and catchable most of the time is the most important thing if not the only thing that matters. As for the other stuff, I'll be happy if my misgivings are completely unfounded..I was cheering along with everyone else when Quinn committed. I'm tired of over a decade of futility like everyone else here...other than aggy trolls.

Living next door to SLC in Keller I have seen QE play multiple times both against Keller and several others.  The kid is fucking talented, there is absolutely no doubt about that.  Also he faced HS teams (not necessarily Keller) that did not just roll over and die and still really fucking talented.  He is super accurate (think he threw like 7-8 picks in his career vs 70ish+ TDs).  The best thing I always saw is that his accuracy did not wane when he was on the move....so that ability to extend plays that we so sorely missed with HC and CT should be there even if next year's line is only marginally improved.  Will he still have to adjust to the college game?  Absolutely but he's got all the physical tools in spades, and while it isn't Texas you're nuts if you don't think he had plenty of expectations to live with at SLC.  

Is he arrogant?  You bet your ass he's arrogant, he works officials (for a HS player) he got on teammates in games etc.  I like that shit in a QB. My daughter is a freshman at UT so in theory a class older than QE but the word was he "dated" his way around SLC and Keller girls, but then again how many of you guys wouldn't fucking do that in the same spot.  Major Applewhite is beloved and he fucked a Vic special while married so who gives a fuck. 

The material is there....get to fucking work Sark.
