What really kills me here is I've been hearing all this great stuff about nkosi is this & that & crowning him as the heir apparent. My problem with this is in the entire season he threw for 1600 yards & ran for 99 yards... what am I missing here? Nothing amazing about that at all.

Perry may not throw for 400 yards a game , but the kid throws TD's. His Junior and Senior year he basically averaged a TD every 7 passing attempts compared to only 4 INTS. That's insane. His QB ratings are also very good. We finally in well over a decade will have stiff competition at the QB spot.

I hear you but that means more than Meetc the eye too. That means like I've said all along everything he throws is either dink & dunks or what I believe is actually the case is they just don't throw much at all. I'm not debating any of his numbers. I just want people to be realistic & pay attention. It's a fact he has high competition percentage yet he has very little yardage. Touchdowns yet Lil interceptions. So when he does throw it's usually short yardage. Clearly it has to be. That's the only way he can have those percentages to go along with 1600 yards.

Perry averages about 17.5 yards per completion over the last 2 years. That is not dinking and dunking.

Just to put in prospective. Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees and Tom Brady averaged about 11 yards per completion last year.

Putting it in to perspective you would have to know how much is run after catch unless you thing he has only thrown the ball 90 times all year. I'd guarantee a good percentage of that is in rac yards.

Yeah. That's a little weird.

He only played the first half of 80% of his games because they put up on teams so quick.

Ok. But he must not be contributing much to them putting up all these numbers if his stats don't back it up & he's gone by the end of the first half...

Not contributing much? He has 71 TD's passing/rushing between his Junior and Senior Years.

You do realize there are different routes? You do realize there are red zone passes? You do realize there are check downs?

I broke down Perry's entire Junior year highlight film. Keep in mind the majority of his short passes were in the red zone.

On every single pass Perry averaged over 17 yards in the air. Not RAC in the AIR.

Honestly I didn't know his junior stats. I'm only looking at his senior stats which are very underwhelming. I just see the standard all our other recruits are held to & it doesn't seem it applies here. Maybe I'm not looking at it the right way.

His junior year has nothing to do with what I initially brought up as MY concern & clearly that's the case if I continue to bring up his lack of stats in his senior year. Far as the yards in the air all you said is competitions which certainly includes the rac as its until the reciever is tackled. As I've said,I DON'T KNOW HIS JUNIOR STATS & IT'S IRRELEVANT TO MY CONCERN. I look forward to him proving me wrong as I want all canes to maximize their talents. I just don't crown him as quick as everyone else seems to. Also not really sure why you bring up different routes etc as a route doesn't change a stat. A completion is still a completion regardless of how it was achieved. It's irrelevant if it's a screen or a go route so long as they both achieve 37 yards isn't it. Otherwise I simply don't see your point.

I can school you with his Senior tape as well.

He had 28 TD's his senior year. He had a 65% completion rate, a 130.5 QB rating and his team is 10-1.

Vanguard runs the ball 60% of the time. Perry didn't even play in the Lake Weir game and against Gainesville he went Passing 7-8 149 3TD's Rushing 6 rushes 29 yards 1 TD and was pulled. He's done at halftime.

Not sure what your exactly looking for.

5 Star Hunter Johnson has 25 TD's and 12 INTS. Perry is a 3 star

What do you mean his stats dont back it up? He played half a season basically so if he played the second halfs his numbers would be over 3000 yards and 50+ TDs. The reason they took him out in the second half of basically every game is he was leading his team to big leads in the first half and they want to get next years qb some experience, Vanguard has done this for some years now.
 
Perry is a stud and the best QB recruit we've had in over a decade. He will leave here with all sorts of records, the kid might be the best QB in the country now.

I'm looking for a quarterback who has displayed he's ready for the next level. I don't question him as a playmaker at all. I just don't need a playmaker to lead my offense. That's what the skill positions are for. I want a quarterback who stayshould off the turf & puts the ball in our playmakers hands while keeping it away from defenders.that's all. Simply a preference. I acknowledge Michael Vick was an elite playmaker but he was a horrible quarterback who half his teammates despised.

Did you not read my post? Look at the QB rating the completion % and he only had 4. INT's . What you are looking is Tom Brady.

Anyone else thinking Weldon beats out Perry?

Physically, he looks like he could play college ball. He already looks bigger than Kaaya was at the same age.

Either the kids he's playing against are tiny, or Weldon's a lot bigger than I thought he was. He looks like a college QB physically and by the way the ball jumps out of his hand already.
 
I posted Perry's junior stats a while back because I thought they were outstanding. Thanks for breaking down what he did his senior season. Sounds like more of the same. Not clowning at all when I ask, but how do you assess his toughness?

Can we call him Mini Ben? Difference between Cade/Ben is that Ben was 2 inches taller and 20 lb's lighter in high school. But their high school highlights look highly identical.

I will also add, he isn't the athlete Big Ben was...Ben was All-District in Baseball/Basketball and was a beast in basketball (at 6'5 who wasn't?)

How's Weldon's rape game compare?
