jsneb83 Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 ESPN article It would seem Kiehl Frazier (Springdale, Ark./Shiloh Christian) had nothing to prove, with offers from many of the top programs in the country, but that clearly wasn't the case at Saturday's EA Sports Elite 11 Quarterback Camp. The 6-foot-3, 215-pound Frazier continues to show why he is considered one of the top prospects in the country with another eye-catching performance, competing against a field that included talents such as Kendal Thompson (Moore, Okla./Southmoore), J.W. Walsh (Corinth, Texas/Denton Guyer), Michael Brewer (Austin, Texas/Lake Travis), Russell Bellomy (Arlington, Texas/Martin) and up-and-coming sophomore Matt Davis (Houston, Texas/Klein Forest). "It's fun to come out and compete with all these good quarterbacks out here," Said Frazier, who didn't want it to be known before hand that he has a sports hernia that will require surgery on Tuesday. "There is so much potential and talent out here, just to get to compare myself with them is a chance to get better. The drills were great. Some of the drills like the bungy footwork drill were tough. They gave us some good tips that I can take home and work on." Competing at the camp was the last part of a big weekend for Frazier, who visited Oklahoma on Friday. Saturday began with an unofficial visit to TCU (where the Elite 11 was held) for the annual purple and white game and a first chance to sit down with members of the Horned Frogs staff. "It was fun. I met with coach [Justin] Fuente, coach [Gary] Patterson and met with the quarterbacks. I didn't know what to expect, but TCU probably moved up on my list because I had a great experience down here," Said Frazier, who took in the spring game from the sidelines. TCU is the latest program to get in the mix for the All-American. Among more than 15 offers, four programs are recruiting Frazier the hardest with key relationships being built. "Probably Arkansas, Miami and Kansas State are recruiting me the hardest and UCLA just got in the mix and are starting to come on. It's probably those four schools. I've built relationships with coach [Gus] Malzahan of Auburn because he is the first one who ever recruited me, coach [Garrick] McGhee because he is close at Arkansas, Coach Kyle Williams at Kansas State because he recruits me and today I got to know coach Fuente and coach Patterson and they impressed me a lot." Trips to both coasts are being planned for the spring and summer. "We'll probably go to Miami and Florida, because they are Florida, and UCLA and USC. After those four, I'm really not sure." Frazier said. Finding the comfort with the chance to compete right away will be the perfect fit for the budding star. "I really don't have a certain thing [as far as a scheme] I'm looking for. I'm just looking for where I fit, I'm comfortable and can come in and compete is what I'm looking for." Arkansas, Auburn, UCLA, Kansas State, Miami and Florida are considered the early favorites.

TheCheshireCat Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Kansas State is an early favorite and we're not even mentioned? What the hell is this world coming to? Quote Link to comment
Judoka Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 The K-State thing throws me as well, but I figure it's probably because we already have a QB commit. Quote Link to comment
schuhbdoo Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 The K-State thing throws me as well, but I figure it's probably because we already have a QB commit. I wish we were in the running for this kid. My favorite 5 star QB of this class. http://www.sportingnews.com/blog/TheRecruitnik/entry/view/65773/nations-top-remaining-uncommitted-qb-talks?utm_source=bleacherreport.com Quote Link to comment
Nexus Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 One of the top players in the Natural State for the Class of 2011 is Shiloh Christian standout quarterback Kiehl Frazier. The outstanding quarterback has earned 26 scholarship offers from schools across the nation, and according to Vype.com, his decision is coming, and it is coming sooner than many expected. Frazier told Vype.com that hopes to announce his college choice in "two or three weeks." It has been previously reported by several outlets that Frazier was planning on announcing his decision either shortly before the season started, or shortly after the season had started. Some of the front runners for Frazier include Arkansas, Auburn, UCLA, LSU, and Miami. Oklahoma and Florida State have shown a lot of interest in Frazier recently as well. In other news, Frazier is planning on graduating early in December, and looks to be able to start working on preparing for the next level a bit sooner than expected. Frazier has led his team to back to back State Championships, and is preparing for one of the toughest non-conference schedules in Arkansas. The Saints will face Watson Chapel, Euless Trinity, Texas, and Greenwood in the pre-season, before heading into conference play. Regardless of where Frazier ends up committing to, you can bet ArkansasVarsity.com will release the news as soon as we get it LINK Quote Link to comment
REDSTEEL Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Read somewhere he just committed to Auburn. Quote Link to comment
kylemiller Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 commited to auburn not surprised Quote Link to comment
Danimal Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Not a smart move on his part. Could've stayed at home and played at home for a great qb-developer. Malzahn will be gone from Auburn in a season or two. Quote Link to comment
