CSU's Grayson was the 28th ranked QB in his state, Washington. Mac developed him into a QB with stats that got
him an NFL look. ??

What do we know about the HS he comes from? Is it a "football factory" in Texas like Aquinas, Dwyer, IMG and such are in Florida? Maybe Mac's trying to set up a package deal to get in with another player from that school? Maybe trying to open some doors:dunno:

That would be absolutely fabulous if it worked out that way.

I've heard one of the biggest obstacles in recruiting is not just getting to talk to the kid but getting to talk to the kids coaches. If the kids are from single household families their coaches often assume fatherlike roles.

Wasn't Shane Matthews something like the fifth string QB when Spurrior took over? That tells me that anything is possible.
Shane Matthews was all state. We wasn't a freaking backup who has never even been on a real damn football field.

On a side note:
Kerwin did not initially receive an athletic scholarship to Florida (walk on) - he was initially the eighth quarterback on the Gators' depth chart.
He did start in high school although it was in Mayo. Don't know if Mayo HS was a powerhouse back in the day.

So the Trask kid may be a hidden gem.

He is a two star joke who better never see the field. Just a waste of a scholly.

We all hope he never sees the field. Waste of a scholly? We got em to burn!

I want whoever is going to get the ball to the right people and help us score points and win games. I don't care if he was the waterboy for the girl's field hockey team at a 1A school in Be Ef, Iowa.

Kerwin had some nice numbers in high school for those years. I think they won the small school title one year he played but he was getting no offers. Not sure if it was due to just playing small ball or if it was something they didn't like physically about him.

A package deal would definitely sound maybe a little better but his teammate better be the next jerry rice

Why the hell didn't i get scholarship offer? I didn't actually play in highschool either but I was pretty damn good at flag football. I could throw the schit out of the ball with no helmet, no pads and nobody trying to tackle me.

Some folks just aren't cut out for college. Find one of those 10$ an hour jobs and stick with it, t.

You just played at the wrong time. You'd be a shoe-in now. Your scouting report would be weak arm-- just like the Texas kid-- but he hasn't been hit much in HS so we will take a chance on T also.

Ever been to Mayo? There's one street. That's it.

Kerwin was weak, slow and lazy on the basketball floor in high school. My son kicked his azz 6 out of 6 times they matched up. We were both shocked when he became a successful starting QB for the Gators.

That was in the days of Pell's unlimited "walk-on scholarships."
