Holds all the Oregon passing records. Challenge is that he's 6' 0" (barely) and 182 pounds.
He's 196 pounds and was Oregon's Player of the Year over Sam Noyer (Colorado) when Noyer was a senior and Tawa a sophomore. He was Oregon's Player of the Year as a junior over Justin Herbert (Oregon; Chargers) when Herbert was a senior and Tawa a junior. He throws 90+, is cat quick and runs in the 4.5s. The only thing not to like is he doesn't fit Shaw's mold size wise.
Tawa won't do it anyway, but it's fun to speculate.
Tawa supposedly gave some consideration to doing both sports when he came to Stanford, but decided against it.
