Re: ***Georgia QB Parker McLeod commits to Alabama***

He is a guy with a high ceiling and not a threat to scare off Bateman. Perfect developmental QB to RS, add depth, and wait his turn.
That's what we needed. We probably wont hear his name very much the next few years, but down the road he may develop into a quality QB.

Agree. I know most all kids dream of being a big star and being the NFL MVP, but the smart ones know its a long shot at best. Maybe he wants to be the proud owner of a few rings and get a great education at such a great traditional institution as Alabama! The lessons he will learn at Bama from coach Saban and crew if he stays the course will be with him and make him successful for the rest of his life! Hard to put a number as to the value of such an experience for a young man in these days and times. ;)

Re: ***Georgia QB Parker McLeod commits to Alabama***

Kinda wonder what they see in him. We're the only big school that offered...and no in-state schools offered him.

edit: i did not mean that in a negative way. just making observations based on what his info says.
maybe that he has a total rocket on his right shoulder with a tall lanky frame that will allow him to get even stronger...

if Coach Saban judges him to be good enough I really could care less what other schools think...

Last year he completed 64% of his passes with an 18:4 TD to interception ratio. And had 10.2 yards per attempt (probably the most overlooked statistic related to a quarterback). Those numbers aren't eye-popping, but they're pretty sporty.

Re: ***Georgia QB Parker McLeod commits to Alabama***

He's new to me but. Here's what we know.

He worked out for the staff and they know::::
1) his accurate hight and weight
2)legit 40 time
3)how clean his footwork is/isn't
4)release point
5)release time
6)field vision
7)overall arm strength
8)throws he can and cannot make

They offered and accepted his commitment all in one day.

IMHO,,,, this kid has to be smarter than he looks to me.;)

Did someone say that Okie State liked him, though? If someone can handle that offense, I'm fine with having them on board.

Great to land another quality QB in this class and I could see Morris and Bateman battling for the next spot with McLeod creeping into the position if they don't push themselves.

I am excited about Morris,but he isn't in the same realm as Bateman when it comes to where they stand TODAY.

But where they stand TODAY is that Morris is about to start practicing in UA facilities, get coached by one of the best coaching staffs in the nation and learn under a NC winning QB whereas Bateman is living in Utah. I think TODAY looks pretty good for Morris too. Bateman is definitely the higher recruit for his class but with Morris getting a year ahead of Bateman and having a great skill set too, I think that will help Morris to compete against the QBs coming in

Good analysis of PM: http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=7848285 and this quote from his coach: “I’ve been coaching for about 15 years and he’s got the best poise in the pocket of any quarterback I’ve seen, with the exception of Hutson Mason [who plays for UGA],” Hidalgo said. “He stands tall in the pocket and doesn’t let the rush bother him at all.”
