true on Daniels. may be that will be the explanation for a '19 gap year at QB? we did offer someone....
we have 3 recruited scholie QBs on the roster. surely we could use one of the unused scholarships on another QB next year, right?
RE: Mobile QB’s - BobK - 09-30-2018
Agree Slide Offer Larrier, please.

We have Tanner McKee coming in 2020, and there are a couple other options still on board. Unclear if we'd take 2 but the opportunity is there.

Now Slide why would Stanford recruit another Plumlee? Does this kid have a helicopter father who eats raw meat for breakfast?
RE: Mobile QB’s - BobK - 09-30-2018
Good one Phogge. Slide will get it.
BTW a Happy Birthday to Angie Dickinson

If you go back and rewatch Costello's highlights from 2017 (or even just look at the box scores), he made his biggest contributions in the early going with his legs. In his debut, he rushed for a 25-yard touchdown against Rice and also had rushing touchdowns against Washington State and UCLA. I think it's clear that his mobility is still affected by the hip surgery.

Something is odd about Costello's running choices. The first two plays of the game appeared to be read-options to the naked eye, but either Costello was instructed (or he chose) to hand the ball off despite the d-end crashing to Love. It seemed like Costello had open space to run to on those plays, and certainly he's shown in the past he can make threatening runs. Dunno what's happening there.
But if you can't scramble for positive yardage you can at least move in the pocket to buy time, or have a quick passing game. Costello's shown those gifts at times before. They weren't really in evidence tonight. I don't think this game was his fault, but then again I'd also say it wasn't *not* his fault.
Years ago, my dad and brother and I were watching a game with an immobile QB (might have been Fouts, late in his career). We were reading some of the skill position 40 times off the graphic, and noted there were no QBs in the list. My dad said to my brother "you're faster than some of those NFL QBs." My brother was a DE in high school and had no speed to speak of.
I feel the same way when I see Costello get chased down by mobile DLs. It looks to me like he's both fragile and has no speed at all. Similarly, it seems to me that our defense gives up a ton of yards to opposing mobile QBs.

I watched some HUDL video of Jack West's high school play. In those highlight videos he has all day to throw so not much was revealed regarding his mobility.
Hopefully Costello can get back on a good track and start moving the Stanford offense again.
