Primarily a pocket passer, but can move around and buy time. Throws with good velocity and accuracy over the middle of the field. Has good anticipation and timing.

Giesge was the key cog of a high-octane Bluffton offense that help take the Pirates all the way to the division 6 state final 4. The sophomore dual threat quarterback threw for over 1,800 yards and 20 TD’s while running for over 1,000 yards and 17 touchdowns.

As a thrower Tayte can win from the pocket or on the move. From the pocket he has the ability to make high level throws to all 3 levels. He shows the confidence and arm strength to throw into windows. In the midst of a rush, he has the ability to throw from different arm slots. When Giesge is on the move whether it be on a roll out or out of structure he keeps his eyes down field and throw on balance with a good base. I’m very excited to see what the future holds as Tayte continues to develop both physically and as a quarterback.

Giesige has a lot of upside. The sophomore signal-caller finished right behind Buescher in passing yards and flashes a strong arm. He throws a nice deep ball and is effective when throwing on the move.
