. I have been a fan of his tape, so it was great to see him throw the ball around in person. The 2027 is developing well. He is an athletic kid who looked at home in the play action or roll out drills. Just as impressive was the consistent accuracy in the short-intermediate throws that we saw all day long. Plus Cole flashed his touch on the deep ball multiple times. The 2027 already has varsity experience under his belt and knows what to expect going forward. I’m excited for his further growth and development at the position.
One of those areas is surely going to be his arm strength. Right now, Cole is able to get the job done. He can get the ball to the necessary spots to be a successful varsity starter. However, what is going to take him into that next tier of QBs is being able to attack every level with velocity so he can hit tight windows and beat DBs to the receiver deep downfield. As Coach Morgan and Kamrath talked about, continuing to develop his hip dissociation and flexibility will take that velocity to the next level. Excited to watch the kid continue to develop and tap into his potential.

. He looks the part at 6’2″ 180 lbs. This offseason, and his freshman tape, has shown that Cole is going to be a dual threat on the field. I’m excited to see the testing numbers that he puts out. I was also impressed by his arm on tape, so I will be standing close to see how the ball jumps out of his hand in person. There is so much time ahead of him for Cole to develop, and the ceiling is looking very high. It could be even higher than I think depending on what we see Sunday. Cole is on his way towards earning a varsity job, so learn the name now.

. Whoever wins the job for Hamilton Sussex will have high expectations for the fall after what the previous QBs have done in this offense. I’m very confident in Cole’s abilities to become an impact starter over the years, and I think we can start to get glimpses of it this fall potentially.
Cole is an impressive athlete. He pairs an impressive 6’2″ 175 lbs frame with 4.7 speed making him a legitimate dual threat QB. The tape shows a QB who can beat pursuit angles, finds and sets up blocks, and has a little bit of wiggle in one on one situations.
As a passer, Cole has a naturally strong arm. Even when throwing to the intermediate and deep levels he can keep it on a rope instead of floating it out there. In the short passing Erdmann has impressive tape. He can catch and throw in an instant with zip on the ball to hit tight windows. None of these high velocity throws would matter without accuracy and Cole has developed that too. He is a well rounded prospect who is sure to continue to move up this ranking as time goes on.
