If you haven’t seen the film, you should watch it. First, he is tall and FAST. Surprisingly very fast. I don’t know how well that translates at the next level as everyone is fast, but if it sticks this guy will require a LB or safety to shadow him throughout the game. Could be devastating if you have a home run threat at RB next to him and you run RPO.

As for passing he is still raw IMO. he has a habit of jumping when he throws deep. Probably correctable. I don’t know if you can turn him into a straight drop back QB, he may always default to his athleticism when under pressure. If you want to see the difference, watch Huhn’s tape (our other QB commit). Pure drop back qb with clearly coached form discipline who is willing to take the hit in order to deliver the ball, but without the clear burner ability.

Falzone’s highlights are mostly bombs that he generally buys time to throw. I don’t see many tight window strikes within ten yards or less. if you let him go mcsorley and just run around and throw it, that may work out. But you’ll need to give him a few “go get it” type WRs. The ball is very accurate and he has solid arm strength to go with it. Huhn seems more accurate with the short ball, falzone seems to have him beat on the deep ball.

He will have two full years to learn how to pass to short and mid routes and develop a Big 10 body. He has a lively arm and is obviously very good with his legs. I love this commitment. You can't go wrong with elite athletes.
