Jake Heaps beat out for Kansas Qb1

I forgot, and now I feel stoopid. Their QB went wild against OSU last year, if I remember right. Good player.

I'll bet Eastern Washington!

Eastern's QB is a junior and broke records last year. He is better than Heaps. Montana's QB is better than Heaps too. He's going somewhere shitty. Maybe he already graduated and can go to a shitty FBS team that needs a QB.

I'm a firm believer that one of the hardest things to recruit is the player that doesn't have a ton of competition. When you recruit in states like California, Texas, Florida, etc., even the shit teams in the best leagues will have 2-3 D1 players on them. You can get a good idea of whether a player has it or not. The toughest guys to recruit are kids like Heaps and a lot of Bellevue kids because they are so much better than the competition that it's hard to tell what happens to them when they have to step up.

The guys in that situation you are looking for are those that go to national situations and make a leap up tied to their competition and continue to show up and be the alpha males. But if I remember about Heaps, while everybody was still drooling over him because of his stats, etc., he wasn't outperforming a lot of the QBs in the class when they were all there.

And when you look back at the top QBs in the 2009 class - fucking dreckfest: http://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/where-are-they-now-2009-elite-11-qbs-including-gardner-bolden-boisture

Wa state aint texas, but it has to be in the top 12 most competitive states for high school football.

Qb's from this state do well, historically

Go count how many scholarship players we have from Washington on our roster and come back and say that. Better yet, go look up how many NFL players we produce. GTFO with that nonsense.

Interesting to see that the Elite 11 is pretty meaningless. After looking at TequillaTLDR's link to MgoBlog, I looked at the Elite 11 for 2010 and 2011 and found that they generally get about 1-2 out of 11 being significant contributors:

2010 had Teddy Bridgewater and Everett Gholson. No others that really saw the field.
2011 had Jameis Winston. Ditto. Mariota and Manziel were in this class but not Elite 11.

2008 was a good year for the Elite 11: Tajh Boyd (great), AJ McCarron (great), Zach Mettenberger (turned out well), Aaron Murray (great) , Geno Smith (great).
2007: Jacory Harris (meh), Blaine Gabbert (very good), Landry Jones (good), Andrew Luck (awesome), EJ Manuel (sucks).
2006: Stephen Garcia (lol), Tyrod Taylor (who?), Ryan Mallett (lol).

It's almost as if teen boy stocking is useless profession and not very effective in predicting future outcomes.

Disagree, teen boy stocking is very useful in predicting future outcomes.

Who knows maybe Heaps will wind up at Middlebury and CollegeDoog can watch the starters catch as many passes from Heaps as you and I.
