HE was throwing it 50 yards in the air basically. Better than Riley, but not a big arm. Elway could throw it 70 yards, Farve near that, Manning over 60. So needs to add some strength, but think he can.

And Jamarcus Russell could throw it 80+! This kid's lucky Al Davis isn't our recruiting coordinator.



His arm doesn't look huge but I don't know what a typical D-1 commits arm looks like in HS.

Where will this kid fit in? You have Taysom Hill for the nest 3 years and then you have mangum. I don't see where this kid will get a shot.

If he is gritty enough he will manage to keep Mangum on the bench.

Yawn. Trick passes mean nothing. Let me know the next time hitting the crossbar without a helmet does anything for a team in a game.



But Green could be a key cog in the QB future of the program. I'm glad he's coming to Provo.

Is it possible that one of our unproven QBs might get injured or one might not live up to Hype. If not, we can all clamor for him to be moved to DB - like usual.

I read the D News article on him. Not LDS, but really wants to be here. Humble. The article also referenced an explosive wide receiver from this class that Green is excited to throw to. Not highly touted. A winner. Steve Young and Jim McMahon were not highly touted. Our highly touted guys never seem to work out.





Paul Shoemaker,

Ben Olsen,

Jake Heaps

James Lark

Jason Munns

And others.



I hope he is an over achiever like Mac, Young, Bosco, Detmer, Wilson, Nielsen, etc. you just never know until they get on the field.
