IMO, TP is a heck of an athlete. Very, very, very, untested as a QB at even a top high school level. Sure everyone wants him, but..... whether or not he is a QB will be decided AFTER someone lands him. I just don't think he will end up here. No matter how I try to rationalize the whole thing, it just doesn't seem like a match between he and Tress. By the end of the recruiting season Stoudt will be a top 15 QB. rivals.com, who had never heard of him before 3 weeks ago, just put him in their top 30. That's unheard of for a kid with no Jr. season resume. With the O-line, (including his teammate, Mike Adams), and the WRs (including his top WR, Jake Stoneburner) what are we waiting for. TP is going to hold several schools hostage before he makes a decision. Why does it concern me that a 17 or 18 yr old kid be manipulating this entire process? Do we want to get left holding the bag?

Think about this. In his 9th start, Stoudt has 200 more yards than Quinn's best year, which included 13 games. He need's 1 TD pass to tie Quinn's best yr, also 13 games. Quinn was about a 55% passer, Stoudt is hitting 69.5%. Bottom line, the kid can play, and will, right away whereever he goes.
