Zach Allen QB from Temple TX

None of that explains to me why we should take a QB that doesnt have the talent to be anything more than an emergency QB.

Agree. That is what the walkons are for.

It's because in all likelihood we won't be able to get a top-level QB in this class. The best they can do is a lower level guy.. so maybe they should pass on a qb?


I mean, if an elite QB prospect wants to commit to us, then go ahead. I just think that we've missed on a handful of those already in 2013 because they see the depth chart.

2014: Muehlstein or Sawyer.

Stop whining, girls.

Offers from Oklahoma State, Syracuse & TCU?

An Elite 11 QB

I believe he is referring to Allen, not Davis Webb.

He is. But Webb was also an elite 11 QB in all fairness to both.

I know, those are Allen's offers and he is an Elite 11 QB. Don't think Webb was offered by SU.

I can't remember where Tre was in regard to recruiting when we picked him up 2 years ago? Did we go after him as an athlete and a qb? As I recall, it was between us and UTEP, but for that matter, so was Andy Dalton and look how he turned out...

decides to stay with Syracuse commit and enroll early.

TCU coaches made a strong last minute push to sway him after the SU coaching change.

Word is something may have changed here.

I sure hope you're right

The new Temple Tornado?

This guy seems to have really solid technique on his throws. Steps up into the pocket when needed and not afraid to scramble for a few yards either. Pretty good thrower on the roll out as well. Hope we can close on him!

QB's are the best athelets on most teams. DKR used to take 15 or more each year. Keeps your opponent from getting them.

Wow. really impressive arm and an excellent runner to boot. Love his decision making. This kid would be fantastic as a frog. Temple has problems at the center position.

 

[TCUSA]

Owner has not made this content available on mobile ??? Didn't know that was an option. Still learning...

Oklahoma State knows a thing or two about recruiting QBs. If they wanted him, TCU should be paying attention.

There it is, Jeremy Clark and Temple HS head coach confirm Zach Allen is now committed to TCU. So there is your 2013 qb

[West Coast Johnny]

Confirmed by David Smoke - Welcome Zach to the Frog Family!

Very nice pickup! He'll like playing closer to home as well.
