Disagree with him running in HS. I saw him play from his soph season on and he was not really a threat to run the ball at all. He showed the ability to get out of the pocket but he isn't going to turn it up the field and get yardage like what Auburn is used to with their QBs.

He's clearly slower than Marshall or Cam, but I think he's faster than Campbell and quicker than Chris Todd and Barrett Trotter. He can still escape to some degree.
I'm very excited to have him under center this year. From everything I've seen on him he appears to be a great kid.

Like I said he's not as deadly as Marshall running, but he ran for over 700 yards his senior year and averaged almost 7 ypc. He smoked Auburn HS both in the air and on the ground that year, and that was a talented team.
