2025 Scouting Evaluations: QB’s (Part 1)

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It is hard to believe that we are just over 10 months away from the Class of 2025 having the opportunity to sign a national letter of intent. With that said let's continue our new series of looking at the top 2025's in MS and updating their evaluations and projections:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='350918' first='Deuce' last='Knight'] - George County</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Left hander that more than passes the eye test in every area physically. Really long frame that plays in upright but athletic position. Confirmed mid 4.5 40 yard dash time which proves his true dual threat ability. Compact throwing motion which shows the ball getting out of hand quickly. Strength is not a question and will allow him to make throws at every level of the defense. Best attribute at present time is his ability to make things happen out of nowhere. Can make throws when everything breaks down or beat you with his legs. Traditional fit in spread/RPO attacks. Current Notre Dame commit.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='648939' first='Kamario' last='Taylor'] - Noxubee County</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Elite production that is proven. Real length from a frame perspective that translates nicely to the next level. Over the top throwing motion but quick with it. Not a guy that you'd consider "dual threat" but has shown ability to move the pocket with an emphasis on throwing first. Plays in control and patient but not afraid to turn it loose. Has arm strength to test secondary deep and shows accuracy at that level. Taylor possesses intangibles that are hard to coach/teach and has potential to really grow in the areas that you can. Feels like a prototype Jeff Lebby QB as he is committed to the Bulldogs of Mississippi State.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='648944' first='Noah' last='Gillon'] - Booneville / Tupelo</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Has bounced between Tupelo HS and Booneville HS during his high school career but will play senior season at Tupelo. Well put together physically with length and mass to fill out frame. Traditional style QB who is pass first but can extend plays and move pocket when need be. Not going to beat you with his legs. Throwing motion can get long at times, especially as plays elongate but it isn't of concern. Shows potential to make throws at all levels but strength can improve and should with time. Feet are very active from the snap thru the throw. Gillon has some offers and I could see more on the horizon. Group of 5 type projection currently. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='159398' first='Silas' last='Corder'] - Pascagoula</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Shorter but well filled out physical frame that easily portrays strength and toughness. RPO/Spread projection with ability to win with arm as well as a between the tackle runner. Sees the field well and has a good "feel". Hard nosed runner when asked to do it. Arm talent is not out of this world but serves purpose and is better by the fact that his legs have to be respected and he can routinely make throws on the move. Technicalities to watch for improvement are happy feet and short armed throws, all of which are not current major concerns and can be fixed. Corder is a gamer and a winner. Good enough to play at next level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p> </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
