N'Kosi Perry senior highlights
Comments (111)
The best thing about this discussion is competition at the QB spot. It has been a long time since this has happened. Competition makes players fight for the job. Should be very interesting spring and fall.
Richt wasn't positive about Allison at all in interviews
That's called motivation.
That is concerning.. but w/this defense, I'm ok with extra TO's next year if a kid is out there making plays & actually showing emotion. Better than watching statue KAYAK get sacked by a blade of grass.
I'm buying into the increased hype on Weldon lately. When he committed, basically everyone dismissed it (myself included) as a safe backup QB type pick-up. He hardly played his junior year due to injury and the Sophomore tape on him looked good, but nothing special (he has grown tremendously since then, both physically and as a QB). So, I guess that explains why the board was seemingly so late to notice the flashes he was showing as a senior. His senior year tape shows a lot to get excited about.
I still don't know who I choose if I had to pick one between the two, but I am fairly confident Perry has almost no chance of winning the starting QB job for Fall 2017. Not enrolling early paired with being relatively raw means no shot in my opinion. With that said, the one thing about Perry that I've always been enamored with is his seemingly elite pocket instinct. He might not have refined footwork in the pocket, but he seems to be the rare type of QB who can truly feel pressure and evade while keeping his eyes downfield. That's always one of the first things I look for in a QB prospect, and don't often find.
I definitely value your opinion on here so I was wondering if you had any thoughts on this.

after watching all 15 min of that highlight, when i read your post, it feels like you only watched the beginning 1/3. "bunch of deep balls", is not at all how i would begin to describe what i just watched. honestly, & not dogging you at all..but just watch all of it and see if it doesnt change your stance just a little.
i saw plenty of slants, seams, outs, digs. sometimes on a rope, sometimes with the necessary touch. i saw a kid who was very comfortable feeling & moving in the pocket and, while scrambling, kept his eyes downfield and consistently found open wr's.
and the fact that he threw 56 td's to only 6 int's over the past 2 years tells me an awful lot about his mental makeup. that's a product of good decision making.
Their competition is about the same. Tampa is top heavy and after about the top 5 or so teams, the comp drops. And Vanguard, being in west bumba****, plays teams from east bumba****...

Honestly, I stopped watching after about 3 minutes.
I'd say we're looking at a battle between a polished QB and a dynamic athlete with potential. It'll be interesting and I'm actually looking forward to it.

Bump. Can't stop watching. If its between Weldon and Perry, I think we'll be in good hands
They aren't very good.
If we're going to continue to run an RPO-based offense, it's all going to come down to who can make the quickest decisions pre- and post-snap. Extending plays is great (and necessary, and something we've sorely lacked under Kaaya) but above all Richt's offense is about timing. Whoever gets this down first wins the job, IMO.
