As most know, I officiate high school football here in Georgia. And every year my association calls the Corky Kell 7 on 7 passing camp all across N.Fulton. Well, the pod that I was at at Kings Ridge Christian School included Rabun County.
You can tell when you do this long enough(going on 14 years) that certain kids just standout from the rest and are different. Gunner is one of those. The ball just comes out of his hand different. The zip and being able to throw it w/just a flick of the wrist. Our white hat in our group(3 officials per field) said that you could hear the "hum" as it left his hand. And when it hit the receivers chests/hands the sound was undeniable. This kid has it. Rusty Mansell was there and you can tell that he is awed by him(and he has seen a lot of top prospects). Nice kid.
It is gonna be a hell of a QB battle in '22 w/him and Brock.
Also met Terrence Edwards. He's the OC for Pace Academy. Great guy. Looks like he could still suit up, aside from the gray in his chin stubble.

I've still got PTSD from our last major QB battle. I don't know if my heart can handle it again.
