Expert Analysis
Paul Gregorian | Prep Redzone Scout
One of the top young talents at the quarterback position, the Central East product has one of the strongest arms in the state for his class and is a big bodied pocket passer that can move well when needed and has a live arm downfield. He also shows a high IQ, processes quickly and can get the ball out quick and on time and throws on a rope outside the hashes with good touch and velocity over the top. Heading into his Junior season at this time next year, he should take the reigns at Central and if he gets the nod this season, he will have a monster year and could very well lead the section in passing.
