Just....wow. He's a career backup for a reason. He will be the next Blake Barnes

That's nonsense. Blake Barnes threw for a whopping 1700 yards his senior season in high school. In 3 years as a starter he only threw for 6900 total yards and 82 TD's.

Hutson in 3 years as a starter in high school threw for over 11,000 yards and 110 TD's with over a 70% completion rate.

In just his senior year he threw for 4500 yards and 54 TD's. He was 312/434 which is 74% completion rate with only 10 ints and averaged a 135 PR.

Comparing him to Blake Barnes is asinine.

Everyone that I've spoken to and everything I've read from people who see him in practice and know him says he dominates the passing game in practice, often showing out better than Murray.

He watches film, runs a decent 40, 6'3 210 lbs, is very accurate and has a bigtime arm. Much bigger than Murray's.

Don't get me wrong, I love AM. AM was better than Mason early on when they came in and AM has played outstanding for us and I have no problem with him as our QB. But Mason has ALL the physical measurables of an elite QB. And it would have been retarded for CMR to create a QB contraversy considering AM was/is a proven commodity at the position.

But Mason might just be the better passer and is just stuck behind Murray for reasons other than quality of play.
