He deserves a chance to prove himself and all, but he's done nothing, high school or college, to prove that he is some kind of exceptional quarterback, or anything to be overly excited for.
To be fair, St Pauls ran a Wing T right after AJ left which really hampered Coker's recruitment. There just wasn't enough film of him throwing the football to warrant any interest. FSU got him in camp and they were blown away by his arm strength. Credit Jimbo and staff for getting on him early. Alabama tried after seeing his Senior film, but it was too late.
Auburn fans of all people should reserve judgement IMO. The QB that just took your team to the BCSNCG was a Safety coming out of high school. Sometimes kids just get looked over.

quote:Nick Marshall was a quarterback all through high school and set numerous records. He was also an exceptional basketball player, and he oozed athleticism at everything he did. Mark Richt convinced him to come play cornerback for Georgia and the rest is history. He was essentially a quarterback his entire life and he was coming into an offense that would show case his skills perfectly (Gus Malzahn's offense).
