2009 QB Recruit on A&T's Radar

[hpaggie]

Jordan Reid a QB recruit from right down the road in High Point(which is about 10 miles from Gboro for those that dont know) is believed to be on A&T's radar, he's about 6'1 180. He plays for T Wingate Andrews HS and i attended some of his games last year and this kid is really good he's very accurate moving left and right ive seen him throw the ball 70+yards(accurately) on the run and no im not exaggerating i promise you that.The reason I really like this kid is that he's really tough mentally, and physically, and he's already in the spread offense from what ive seen so he would fit right in over here with Coach Mckenzie's spread system. His speed is average, i say he runs in the 4.55-4.6 range which is good for a QB, most importantly he's an excellent student he has a 4.1 GPA(wow!!). I would love to see him in Blue n Gold in 2009 and i really believe he's the perfect fit at QB for what were doing over here @ A&T he really could be our QB of the future if he was to choose to go here. But im going to try to see if I can find some film on him in the near future.
Here's some pics of Jordan:

why isn't the washington kid from andrews on fobbs radar ... he's on UT VOLS radar...

What are we trying to be now? Bethune-Cookman. Im sure the kid is good. Its just that I prefer a 6'4 and up type of QB that can see the entire field.

[90saggie]

Rico could have done more than he did its just that as we already know, we didn't have a good coach on staff.

[DOOMS]

How tall was Connell? How tall is Armanti Edwards?

Thanks.

I'd prefer a kid that can win some games and not run around 20 yards behind the line of scrimmage, throw interceptions on a frozen rope, or run with the ball like it's a loaf of bread.

I wonder how many great qbs we would ignore a year if we only recruited "6'4" guys that can see the whole field?" Any guy that size simply is not going to be a good qb (like Rico) because he will be a project. Otherwise, a major would scoop him up before we got a chance to sniff him. Of course, maybe we could get him after he gets arrested, fails a drug test or never sees the field and wants to transfer down.

We need players and coaches. Not sizes.

[90saggie]

I see what you mean DOOMS its just that size has always impressed me. I was absolutely in heaven Rico's first two seasons, but just like you probly I wanted to kill him that 05 season, espcecially homecoming. In my opinion he cost us that game against Del st. He just looked so inept in certain situations. I was about ready to go out there and quarterback the team myself lol. But as long as Fobbs feels what he brings in can win im satisfied with that.

[90saggie]

What I would like to see happen is for us to find a guy, build him, and make him our starter for 4-5 years. Thats been the problem with the program. Absolutely no consistency. You think we will be able to do that with McKenzie's system? Does anybody know if DC will be in Spring Practice?

[treese]

After watching the Aggies for so many years size means nothing. My homeboy Connell Maynor was what 6 even...forget size, I want a QB like Hooker or Maynor, that can get the job done and take control!!!!


I will not say anything bad about the current QB's! I hope they do better this year!!

[Aggie Monster]

We need a baller. Period! F-size. As long as he aint 5'9 or nothing like that then i dont care. As long as he dont throw interceptions out to the flat.

90aggie the DC was on the practice field Friday.

[90saggie]

How did he look? Fully recovered or a step or two behind? We could really use him this season.

[Bornthrilla]

DC = Defensive coordinator, not Derrick Chancellor.

[aggiedog]

Thanks thrilla

[lilboy]

and yes Chancellor is back at practice as well.

[90saggie]

Thanks lb. Thats good to hear. Thats like the Lakers getting Bynum back. There is a god after all. Are any of the new recruits in practice. If so, how do they look?
