Last week's update of the Top247 rankings now have eight Texas quarterbacks ranked in the national top 200 overall prospects.

Kaidon Salter 4 stars
Composite ranks him ninth nationally among 2021 dual-threat QB's and 39th overall in Texas for his class. Top247 rankings put Salter significantly higher. He is a top 100 prospect at No. 89 overall, fourth nationally among 2021 dual-threat QB's, and No. 12 overall in the Lone Star State, where he sits atop the in-state QB rankings.
Salter threw for 2,550 yards, 28 touchdowns, and six interceptions, while rushing for 616 yards and 10 TD's in 2019, when he led Cedar Hill to a 9-3 record and Texas Class 6A Division II second-round playoff appearance. In addition to football, Salter is a track and field standout who competes in the high jump, long jump, and triple jump.

He's the reigning Texas 6A state champion in the high jump and owns a personal best of 7 feet.
Stowers led his team to the Texas Class 6A Div 2 state title game where he suffered a knee injury.

So far Lashlee is speaking with Nussmeier, Milroe and Davis. Would be great to reach out to Drones and Salter.

His brother spurned them for South Carolina a year ago....I think he is the goods. I would recruit/.ecaluate him

The thing is, he plays in the TAPPS division which even as close as talented to the UIL. Its hard to evaluate him when his competition is similar to 2A ball in the Northern Panhandle of Florida. With all of the mess that has gone on at that school. I hope he transfers to a public school in Texas for his senior year.

Cedar Hill, Duncanville, and Desoto are all close by and he should transfer to one of those schools and prove himself against top competition.

Texas is the epicenter of HS quarterbacking. I'd be scouring Texas every **** year. Even their lower ranked guys go on to success.

It's what I been preaching on the board, in the 21 class alone 14 OOS schools have a TX QB committed to them & there's still 3-5 more who are uncommitted & will undoubtedly be committing to non-Texas schools as well.

People forget that Pat Mahomes was a 3-star QB ranked 398th nationally, 50th in the state of TX in composite ratings & 82nd in 247 only ratings & was the 29th Pro-style QB in his class.

In that same class he was ranked behind Kyle Allen, Deshaun Watson, Will Grier (lol), Keller Chryst, Jerrod Heard (who got converted to WR), Brandon Harris (who was a total bust at LSU), the Legendary JJ Cosentino at FSU, Deshone Kizer at Notre Lame & our very own Brad Kaaya.

I've discussed this before, maybe there's something in the water, maybe it's the heavy Baseball culture in TX, maybe it's the Varsity Blues style Dads lol but Tejas produces some gifted passers with elite arm talent in every class & the volume itself is unmatched. You might get 2 to 3 maybe 4 in most regions per class, in TX you're getting like 8-10 deep a year & often times the lowest ranked ones be the kids who have the best success.

If I'm Lashlee, for the 2022 class I'd offer every **** kid down there until we landed one.

For me, it's the level of pressure that these kids deal with from an early age. These kids enter the college game having played on similar stages for the previous 2-4 years.

They're also playing in college-level offenses under coaches that spend 70-hours a week working on football just like high-level college coaches. These kids in Texas are being trained like they're at the next level when they're 15 years old. That has an effect on the mentality of a player. The down side is that this over-training and over coaching of players means that position players will have peaked in HS (which sucks for them because there's no growth potential left). The positive is that for the QBs this level of preparation means that they have prepared like and played against D1 level talent prior to entering college.

Four of the last nine Heisman Trophy winners have been QBs that played their HS ball in Texas. That's an INSANE statistic.

Texas football is prestigious and a lot of money gets pumped in to programs...

I get it that Florida has tons of untapped potential and cielings... but Texas kids have amazing coaching and get put in more camps and more training that most.

I have buddies at work who have their kids working with trainers who specialize in crafts as early aa 7 or 8... whether it’s football(QB,WR,etc) or baseball (hitting coach, fielding coach, and of course pitching)

they get these kids groomed super early and start working traveling teams

probably from slingin the pill since middle school in spread offenses. Tx took to the spread a loooong time ago, Briles switched in the 90s (some say he was one of coaches to introduce to texas high school) breaking national records in late 90s before Leach put him on staff at texas tech in 2000. 7 on 7, having facilities, I would guess good coaching making 100k+ to teach you then go to college and play in system you been in since before even a teen. They probably clocked in the 10,000 hours (figuratively) where they can make plays with ease.
