Decked Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I want him. I cant watch the film on my phone is he a dual threat or a pro style? Link to comment
TonyStalloni Posted June 9, 2012 Author Share Posted June 9, 2012 From his film I saw him drop back to complete passes and also roll out with equal success. If his receivers are covered he isn't shy about tucking it in and running for daylight. He has offers from the academies, Cal and SDSU I think but word is starting to spread to the rest of the country. His GPA is also very high (Stanford quality) so passing the ACT wouldn't be a problem. Link to comment
blessed2bahusker Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 After seeing Stanton's film he is number one on my quarterback wish list. I put him ahead of Bailey, Kincade, and even Jennings and Zaire (although those ships have sailed anyway). He is just one of those kids that seems to find a way to get it done. He has a great arm, great delivery, great change of direction, good speed, great size. I really don't see any negatives with this kid. Great character, toughness and he seems to have the intangibles. Does anybody know if he indeed has an offer. Others have posted that he is coming to BRW but I don't see an offer for him on Rivals. Man I would be stoked if we landed this kid. Link to comment
blessed2bahusker Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Something that has got me confused are some comments made by one of the wr's we are recruiting. The recruit said that the coaches were telling him that the offense has steadily become more balanced (which can be debated). The thing that is strange to me is how can we have Bailey so high up on our board if we truly intend to become a more balanced team? If we are most likely slow playing Kincade in favor of Bailey as EZ said, then it is hard to buy the idea that we want to be balanced because both Kincade and Stanton are light years ahead as passers compared to Bailey. Do the coaches just think that Bailey can be developed into a passer and his running ability makes him worth the risk? I don't think the coaches are just blowing smoke up kids arses, but sometimes I struggle to see how they are seeing things. Link to comment
TonyStalloni Posted June 9, 2012 Author Share Posted June 9, 2012 Maybe after seeing what a very elusive QB can do to a defense (Wisconsin and Michigan last year), perhaps do want one running QB with fair passing skills and try to turn him into a similar style. I thought Andrew Luck did a good job in the reverse last year. A highly efficient passer who could get a few tough yards when needed with his feet. I see Stanton in that mold. Link to comment
TheW0rld Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I like this guy's video a lot. He would be a great get. Throws the ball really well. Link to comment
HuskerHacker Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Kind of reminds me of Brook Tall, lanky, underrated escapability and a proven winner. Link to comment
teachercd Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Wow, talk about a kid that has been coached and coached and coached when it comes to rolling out and getting depth and distance. Link to comment
CMT1525 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 stanton is light years ahead of bailey in my book. Wow I didnt know what to expect when watching his film but after all I can say is that we need to be all over him before he gets alot more offers Link to comment
caveman99 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Is Stanton coming to the QB Camp? Isn't Scott going to that camp also? Wonder if it will be treated as a competition to get an offer. Link to comment
EZ-E Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Very fundamentally sound QB. I want Kincade more though. Link to comment
ADS Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Very fundamentally sound QB. I want Kincade more though. Agreed. Link to comment
Decked Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Very fundamentally sound QB. I want Kincade more though. Agreed. No way he has way more physical tools than Kincade. He has been greatly coached up. Link to comment
