The QB MVP went to Derek Roback of Waverly High School in Ohio. Roback, 6-foot-1 1/2 and 194-pounds, was fantastic with his leadership and decision making while leading the ?White Team? to the 7-on-7 championship.

Roback has excellent size already at 6 feet 2 and 200 pounds. In 2006 he was a national finalist in the Pepsi Punt, Pass and Kick competition and is an outstanding athlete ? he runs better than 4.8 in the 40-yard dash. He was the quarterback MVP at the NationalUnderclassmen.com Ultimate 100 in June.

IMO we would take one or two QB's in this class, probably one. I would prefer Dwight Macon.
On a different note, for some reason his face reminds me of Clausen.

We will also have to see where Spencer Ware projects as well...The kid from Liberty Benton might have an outside shot as well...

EDIT: Yup...

Also on pace was the Patrick Henry defense, which consistently came up with crucial plays and remained aware against a highly-potent Eagles offense led by sophomore quarterback Aaron Craft. While Craft accounted for 93 yards rushing and 259 yards through the air, Patrick Henry stifled running back Brandon Pickett for a mere 19 yards.

Got to see Roback live yesterday, and he did not disappoint...Not sure if he is for sure offer for us, but what I will say his he will be in the discussion...We are looking at Gardner and probably Macon as well...
He has a little hitch in his throwing motion, but what comes out of his hand is usally a very good looking ball...He can be high some...
But this kid has talent and think he will be a 4star rated QB...
I knew who he was, but some of the other scouts, coaches, were turning their head saying who is #13, and were surprised when he was only a sophomore...
