Juco QB Zach Lee

Witt does not play for a particularly good team. Beck's stats from his senior year were not that great either. They will not pull his scholly but will definitely keep pursuing solid qb prospects. That position on the field is too vital not to.

 
If this guy has 3 years to play then yes we should go after him. Like glaserjo said, QB is too vital and we must have not only a great starting QB but good to great back-ups as well to help us get back to the top.

According to Crabtree on 1620 yesterday, NU is in the mix. He said nothing about OU leading. So is appears we have as good of a chance as anyone right now.

As for not needing another QB, Hildebrand, according to Eric, hasn't looked that good. We don't know if Witt will be the guy in 2008 anymore than when Beck came into town and turned out to be a bust. As of right now, it's probably Ganz's to lose in 2008. He seems like one of those who by his fifth year in the system will be a solid (not great) and effective QB. With the experience we have had with juco Zac Taylor, I would say absolutely go after this guy.

Does Lee have four years to play three? A redshirt year would likely make him a better player.

 
does anybody know if he was highly recruited out of high school and if so why did he go the JC route. was it grades and will it be hard to get him qualified?

 
Lee is the son of former NFL quarterback Bob Lee of the Vikings and Falcons. He attended St. Ignatius of San Francisco which played in the West Catholic Athletic League. It looks like he put up some pretty good numbers while being a 3 time all-league QB such as a 18 of 21 for 361 yards and five touchdowns performance while upsetting a higher ranked team. It does appear he graduated in 2005 (same year as Mark Sanchez and Marlon Lucky). Trying to find out why he took the year off from football.

 
That would be huge if he has four years to play three. Perhaps Callahan and company can convince him how valuable that redshirt year would be and how it would make him a better QB.

 
If he has 3 years to play I say pick him up!!!! It's better to have someone who has proven themselves in JUCO and know that he is such a good player than have a back-up QB that hasn't looked good and have him tank our offense. Look at our success with Taylor........

 
Any one catch the first half of the Mizzou-OU game when Musberger was rambling on about how many receiving weapons OU will have returning next year and a QB would be walking into a great situation. Then he said "Any JUCO All-Americans out there should call Coach Stoops collect."
