Osborne is so composed stepping up in the pocket and throwing accurately. This is a key trait that I look for in quarterbacks and he certainly has the ability to do so.
Osborne shows the ability to roll out to his right and throw accurately as well. He has great short-area quickness and has good long speed as well. Osborne can throw accurate high arching deep balls down the field. From what I have seen of Osborne, I would definitely say he has division 1 traits. Other division 1 coaches would agree as well and his play has gained attention from many teams. Osborne was recently offered by Bowling Green (Twitter).
#2 Colton Kinnie Colton Kinnie 6'2" | 225 lbs | QB Seaholm | 2024 State MI – Colton Kinnie Colton Kinnie 6'2" | 225 lbs | QB Seaholm | 2024 State MI runs the option very effectively. He has the quickness to scramble up the middle for good yardage. Kinnie has a quick release and can throw a tight spiral. He has the ability to throw the football with touch down the field. Kinnie does a great job of selling his fakes on option plays.
I like how Kinnie is not afraid to put his head down and run over defenders for extra yardage. Kinnie is a good football player who will be a key asset to his team since he has the ability to run the option offense and throw the football accurately.
#2 Jake Zann Jake Zann 6'1" | 185 lbs | QB Alpena | 2024 State MI – Zann is not shy when it comes to taking shots down the field. He has a strong arm and is capable of completing passes downfield. Zann has the ability to put zip on his throws. He has good footwork and always looks comfortable in the pocket. Zann has the ability to roll out to his left and throw accurately as well. I expect Zann to have a great year in 2022 and play a key role in the success of his football team.
#19 Connor Wolf Connor Wolf 6'3" | 180 lbs | QB Grand Rapids Catholic Central | 2024 State MI – Wolf has the ability to throw receivers open. He has a good touch and has the ability to hit the back-shoulder fade. Wolf does not hesitate to throw the football when he sees an open man. I like Wolf’s footwork and he has a fluid drop back in the pocket. Wolf has the ability to throw into tight windows as well. I like how Wolf knows to throw the football high so only his taller tight ends can go up and get it. Wolf shows the toughness and courage to stand in the pocket and take a hit.
#12 Casey Joppie Casey Joppie 6'1" | 180 lbs | QB East Kentwood | 2024 State MI – Joppie has a very effective pump fake that he uses to freeze defensive backs. Joppie has a very quick release with good follow-through. Joppie does a good job of scanning the whole field first before he throws. Joppie does a great job of staying poise in the pocket and can throw even when the pocket starts to break down a bit. Joppie has the good arm strength and can throw the deep ball accurately consistently. I like Casey Joppie Casey Joppie 6'1" | 180 lbs | QB East Kentwood | 2024 State MI ’s game overall and can see him having another outstanding season next year.
