Mikie2times Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago (edited) I'm not sure how many got a chance to watch this kid in week 1. A lot of hype, I had no idea what to expect. I was pretty floored by what I saw. Competition really doesn't matter with what I was looking at. How in rhythm is he, how quick does the ball get out, arm strength, accuracy, and composure. I was so impressed by this kid. In fact, I will go as far to say I have only been blown away by two freshman QB's in the last 25 years or so as far as watching the first games they played as freshman. Those guys ended up being Russel Wilson and Robert Griffen III. I have really liked others early, but not to this extent. Sometimes when you watch these kids you just get a feeling. They're just ahead of it all. The Oklahoma / Michigan is must watch football this weekend. Mateer is also very solid and Oklahoma should be a solid team again this year. Norman is not a fun place to play for anybody let alone a true Freshman in game two. But I think this kid will be up to the task and it should be a awesome game.

thenorthremembers Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago May have mentioned this before, but my oldest son is a big Michigan fan. Checked out the game last week. The kid has all the measurables and all the talent in the world. The arm talent is pretty evident. One thing I noticed last week is he relies a lot on the arm talent and the mechanics are a ways off, especially lower body. That said he looks like the real deal in terms of a QB prospect. Going to get a lot of Cam Newton and Josh Allen comparisons. I like Mateer from the Sooners alot. Cant wait for the game. 1 Quote
