New (free) video of Russell on the Rivals page... |
Lead | ||
|
I played middle school and Jr. Varsity Quarterback, but I don't have a clue about mechanics and all that jazz. All I did was hand off and throw to the
tight end once every couple of games. I do know it's good to be calm in the pocket and have your head down field making checks. That being said, Russell
seems to be able to do those things while having a VERY strong, accurate arm. If you go watch, keep your eye on one pass about 50 yards down field that the WR
drops, but it was a go pattern, and it was on the money. From watching the video, it seems as though we have a pretty good QB on our hands with a little
coaching.

Sounds great, but..... | #1 | ||
with a little coaching. where's that gonna come from?

Damn, Oak Grove has a nice field.
Second, the dropped side-line pattern was a perfect throw. Third, he has decent wheels for a kid his size. |

when did you play at Madison Central for Justice?Nothing like playing Provine for the state title and watching Bobo and Nehemiah run...every...damn...play. But, hey, we won. |

Justice had a Bobo... | #5 | ||
|
when he coached me in 2A (not that 2A is relevant or anything). Was probably our best overall athlete (hell of a LB).

There was a bit of arrogance | #7 | ||

about is gameplan. He basically said that we were so good that we didn't have to pass. Which was funny to me because of the newspaper article that week
about how rich MC was and how poor Provine was.

I saw Marvin Byrdsong's, and he looked like a cross between Lawrence Taylor and Lavar Arrington. We've had several in the past ten years that looked
like can't miss prospects. But Moore made some throws in that video that we haven't had anyone capable in a long time. I hope he keeps his commitment.

"That boy good."
Serious, he looks pretty damn good. Size, some speed, arm, touch...... of course, it is a highlight video. I will say this though. MS 5A football looks good. I was impressed with the way the linemen were holding blocks and the routes ran. Back in the day, when my high school played (4A...nearly 20 years ago). It was take the snap, start running backwards to ellude the jail break, then heave it as far as you could in hopes your one receiver ran under it. |

If it makes you feel any better.... | #10 | ||

his passing game sucked in 2A as well (except for one year when "Todd" was our QB).

I am not sure if you were using hyperbole, but | #11 | ||
|
if not, your information is incorrect. Favre was instrumental in assuring the field at OG was completed as planned and without delay, and you are also correct
that he made a very generous donation for the weight room. However, his donations to USM Athletics have been constant and consistent and make his Oak Grove
donations appear small.
The rumors you appear to have heard are related to the fact that he made a big donation at a critical time to Oak Grove instead of adhering to his pledge, while staying "on schedule" with his USM pledge in spite of a plea to speed up that pledge. Blood is thicker than water. His daughter was at OG at the time. |

Three things | #12 | ||
|
1. Kid has a big arm
2. that is the best QB highlight video I have EVER seen for a MSU QB commitment 3. You never know how a HS player is going to turn out, but its hard to believe that we dont have a commitment from the best QB in Mississippi.

Just look at the football coaches in the SEC West, with the notable and honorable exception of Mississippi State's Sylvester Croom, a pillar of integrity amidst a sea of infidelity. Matt Zemek |

His arm looks as good as Garrett's, although... | #13 | ||
|
CG might be able to out throw him, however Russell seems to move around the pocket better.
Based purely on highlight tapes, I'd rather have Russell *at this point*. |

in the fall he probably had one of the two best arms in the state. Garrett ain't the other. He needs a little quicker release. That's the only thing
that jumps out. He has a slight windup.He looks smooth. Not stiff looking at all. Looks a lot like Bilbo from the coast a few years back.
