Bobcat And Ram QBs Thrive At Pitt State Camp

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>So yesterday I scouted the Pitt State positional camp at the Robert W. Plaster Center and featured offensive and defensive linemen in a scouting report.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>However, let's be honest, it is still the skilled guys who throw, catch, and run the football who get the online headlines.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There was a good crop of skilled players from Kansas who worked out during the three-hour clinic. Here is a look at five Kansas athletes, all in the Class of 2024, &nbsp;who plied their skills at the Pitt State Camp in front of the Gorilla coaching staff.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Ryder Goodman</strong>, QB, 6'1”, 195, Riverton</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the high schools I covered when working at the Pittsburg Morning Sun was Riverton High School. It brought back memories of seeing Goodman at the camp representing the Rams. He has an accurate arm and can throw the ball deep. He has good size for a quarterback and you can bet he has thought about playing as a Gorilla since he was a little kid.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='676211' first='Crew' last='Myers']</strong>, WR, 6'0”, 170, Blue Valley West</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Myers had a solid performance at the camp. He has nice hands and good speed. He lines up in the slot frequently for Blue Valley West and he is not afraid to run across or down the middle of the field. Myers is a solid route runner and I won't be surprised when he lands himself in a college football program.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='334729' first='Brady' last='VanDonge']</strong>, QB, 5'11”, 175, Basehor-Linwood</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Another quarterback who shined during the workout was the Bobcats' VanDonge. He seemed to thrive in the college setting and was not intimidated working out with other top-notch quarterbacks. He has a big arm and takes care of the football. VanDonge steps into his throws and can throw all the routes a college offensive coordinator would want from a quarterback.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Tyson Wallace</strong>, S, 6'0”, 180, Goddard</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Wallace made the trip to Pittsburg from Goddard. He is a solid safety with good ball skills and the ability to finish tackles. He made 65 total tackles during his junior season with the Lions. He is also a threat to the quarterback when put on a blitz.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1107801' first='Grady' last='Noll']</strong>, ATH, 5'10”, 170, Jefferson County North</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Noll is one of those wildcard prospects who can play multiple positions. He could get recruited as an athlete and then his college coach will figure out where to play him later. He can play quarterback, running back, and in the slot on offense. Defensively he could play linebacker or safety. He is a tough kid who is difficult to tackle and not afraid to stick his nose in to make a tackle.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
