I watched North play Westside this year and was impressed with Paul and Okafor, however Bates was another story. He may have been having a bad game but he really didn't look like D-1 QB material. You could tell that he was a decent athlete but his decision making was pretty bad and the fact that he did a lot of pouting on the sideline didn't help his cause. His stats would have been nothing without Paul making the plays that he did. He did a lot of rolling and out and just throwing the ball deep and hoping Paul or the Police Chiefs kid made the play. Like I said maybe I caught a bad game but if you ask me the kid from Westside looked like the better QB. I wish Bates would have made his way to NU but there is no way he should have been recruited as a QB.IMO
