He was only in 8th grade. I figure 11.9 is still pretty good for that age. He could easily be in the 10.8-11.3 range now.

Thanks for posting. I always try to keep tabs on the athletes I post about, even if I don't follow up in their threads. Some times, information is difficult to come by. Ryan has been like that. Thanks for the link to his highlights. It's good that he's entering the the recruiting process so...

Here are some white RBs who will likely get carries this season, although only a couple will be starters. Zach Zwinak - Penn St Mark Weisman - Iowa Riley Bullough - Mich St Steven Manfro - UCLA Hunter Lee - LaTech Cam McDaniel - Notre Dame Caleb Muncrief - Ok State Brice Dolezal - TAMU Mike...

(Since I went to the trouble of computing it, I might as well make use of it.) Mannion finished 36th in QBE last season with a very good 129.09. That's better than the career number for Geno Smith, Tyler Wilson, and Landry Jones. He gets the ball out quickly and is rarely ever tackled with...

It's already been confirmed that the Obama Justice Department has interfered with this case. I'm guessing the judge and jury have both been manipulated, as well. I expect a conviction. If not, then it's all according to some grander plan. I have no doubt that the strings are being pulled...

Ryan Weigel, WR 2014 Southlake Carrol High School, Texas 5'7" 160lbs. 40: 4.33 100M: 10.62 Anybody ever heard of this kid? He's got serious breakaway speed. He plays "big boy" football in Texas. He also plays baseball. He has no scholarship offers that I'm aware of. He would be an ideal...

FDE is a meta-statistic. Number of first downs isn't part of the calculation. It's a lot like the "Yards Per Attempt" stat, which is also just conceptual (after all, you're not getting any yards for each incompletion, so how can you be awarded 8.54 yards on that pass when it hit the ground?)...

The first picture I saw of him made him look mixed, but it wasn't a closeup. In the other pictures I found, he appeared to just have tightly curled hair and bad skin (lots of acne). On average, he looks more white in pics than mixed. However, I'm not at all forgiving when it comes to this sort...

dwid, Here is the spreadsheet for the 2012 season. Just make a new row for a player and input the first five columns of data (which I get from the NCAA's website here. You can access previous years by changing the number in the address.) I added the results for each year of Tebow's career as...

Kolb's career QBE was 119.39, based on a CPF of 144.40 with a BHF penalty of 25.01. As you can see, Kolb was a skilled passer, but he suffers a large ball handling penalty. This is because, although his loss yardage was only slightly worse than average (2.16 loss yards on average), he was...

Kade Clayton, ATH Grace Community School Tyler, TX 6'2", 180lbs. 40: 4.40 (laser timed, top rated 1.41s 10yd split) Champion 100M and 300M hurdler JR: 119carries, 1,511 yards (12.7avg), 26TD 26rec, 502 yards (19.31avg), 6TD 69 tackles, 5TFL, 2 forced fumbles 40yard...

Nick's QBE for his final season was 131.25, based on a CPF of 146.51 and subtracting his Ball Handling Factor Score of 15.26. His composite passing number (CPF) was very good. When he took losses, they tended to be larger than average. However, he didn't get tackled with the ball a...

After some tinkering with formulas, I finally have QBE where I want it. Not only does it do a better job of measuring the traits I want to highlight, it's now a simpler calculation and easier to understand. Previously, QBE was doing too much "rewarding" for solid play and not enough "punishing"...

That's a tough question, as QBE isn't suited to predictive assessments. It's more of a "What are they doing wrong right now?" evaluation. That, of course, also takes into account the offense they run with their college teams. Like I pointed out, Denard is an awful quarterback, but he fits...

I decided to finish the ratings with the final season statistics and with every eligible quarterback in FBS. There were a fair number of quarterbacks who didn't qualify for statistical listing by the NCAA's method. I included most of them in my chart. As you can see (if you looked at the...

1. Nile Knapp 2. Sam McGuffie 3. Josh Smith 4. Jake Cimolino

Oh, one more thing I wanted to point out, since I consider it pretty significant. Only eleven quarterbacks in all of FBS last year had a positive Loss Avoidance Factor. Nine of those eleven were white. If football coaches ever performed statistical analysis of their players similar to the...

Thanks for the comments. Regarding specific game performances (as you mention with Smith), that is obviously something that scouts will look at (Well, they're SUPPOSED to, but we all know that rarely applies when they want to see only what they want to see). Some things just can't be...

I worked this up last year near the end of the season. Obviously it's no longer quite as relevant as it would have been before the draft. But, if I don't post this now, I'll never get around to it. We all know that the QB Efficiency rating is garbage. I pointed to multiple articles (in my...

Alex Suchesk Mission Viejo High School, CA 5'10" 180lbs. 40: 4.4 100: 10.72 Junior Season: 1,167yds 28TD Scout Profile 2012 Highlights This if the fifth best highlight reel I've seen for high school runningbacks since I started paying attention to such things half a decade ago. Alex...

I have lost 65lbs in the past ten months. I now weigh the same as I did as a high school junior. I've been overweight all my adult life. No solution ever worked for me. Then I read this book. From then on, losing weight was effortless. I'm not going to expound at length on the matter. If...

Now watch as 75% of D1A coaches trip over each other in a race to sign this overrated black quarterback. My guess is that he ends up on the West Coast. Possibly UCLA.

The Sandy Hook thread was locked, but this thread has similar elements, so I'll post this here. It looks like the skeptics were 100% correct. I certainly believe them now. The whole thing is being scoured clean by the fire of the law. They're already demolishing the school. Now they have to...

I don't think Hillis is going to find a team. I suspect his career is over. The NFL will absolutely not tolerate white men running the ball. So there will be no improvement at RB. Honestly, I don't think the numbers will improve for whites at any position. And they will continue to get...

Stockemer was cut by Miami. Their receivers are so awesome they have no need for a 6'4" 4.5 homerun threat with a 40" vertical.
