Very strong arm. Big kid and athletic. Still a project. Whipple at least has something physically to work with. He might never take a meaningful snap. Synek might pass him on the depth chart. That kid looks good against the lower unit D.

That's all about the "touching" down RBs and the way they scored the "game" today. The O was severely handicapped in the first half with the rules.
Isaiah Harris needs to transfer to one of the Dakota schools where he can start. Dude has wheels.
Night and day difference between the two players. The growing offer sheet of Flores demonstrates that.
Threw a couple of pretty bad balls when under pressure. Like his legs. I feel like he's probably most similar to Martinez.
A 3-9 program with very few proven starters at any position and we're worried about getting key players hurt?
Guys that had their names called quite a bit:
Rollins, EMC, Nelson, Hausmann
Grimes looked decent. Neville shook Tommi Hill out of his shoes on one release I saw. Tyreke had a nice pass break up - he was lined up at CB on that one.

I would say today they tabbed smothers as #2. Tomorrow I would think it should be Purdy #2. Come fall as shoulder keeps getting stronger I could envision good competition. Thompson didn't impress that much, but much better accuracy than in the past. And he probably would have scored td if not for touch rule
The Spring game always tells you very little about the fall team. The one thing I did learn today from the interviews is that Thompson thinks very highly of himself. Not what you'd want to have in a brother-in-law but what you do want in a QB. Ha.

He is terrible and needs to go. Nice kid and good family but he flat out sucks.
I know it's only a scrimmage but he did look better running the offense than the other QB's
Just got home from game. Great day for a ball game.
I haven’t heard anything on Stepp’s injury. I felt really bad for the young man. Sad moment late in the game as we watched him apparently being consoled by his mother and I’m assuming his grandmother.

There’s really only one dude around here that goes to bat for him, and I really don’t know what he sees.
He’s got some decent opinions at times, but this ain’t one of them.
Tied for 4th or tied for 3rd…doesn’t matter to me. I don’t think they can play real football.
