Harrel has performed well enough to put himself in the Mississippi's Top 5 QB's in regards to total passing yards and has certainly distinguished himself as an athlete. Jeremiah had an excellent season completing nearly 62% of his passes for over 2,800 yards and 36 TDs. This kid showed his ability to get the ball downfield efficiently.  [player_tooltip player_id='344100' first='Jeremiah' last='Harrell'] has earned attention from multiple D1 programs including Utah and Mississippi State. Next season Jeremiah will be looking to have a repeat season and show just how consistent of a QB he is.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/behumble_jermu0022 target=u0022_blanku0022 rel=u0022noopeneru0022u003e@behumble_jermu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-639b31069f2db"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["548450"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='548450' first='Fredd' last='Adams'] is a Top Teir athlete and possibly one of the best defensive backs in the state.

Being a running back to a team with an elite passing game often makes you overlooked however Quay certainly made use of his reps and playing time. Quay averaged over 7 yards per carry and nearly 100 yards per game. He has the speed and agility to put a move in the open field but also the power to run through would be tacklers. He has accounted for over 16 TD's and makes the running game a real threat on game day.
