Netflix: QB1 Season 3 is Now Streaming
This season follows number one ranked Spencer Rattler, now at Oklahoma, Lance LeGendre, now at Maryland, and Nik Scalzo, now at Kentucky, through their senior years and signing days. It’s a Peter Berg production and I think very well done.
Consider this a heads up, I guess.

Nice. I'll be particularly interested in seeing how Spencer Rattler is portrayed.

JD Johnson comes across as a very good kid who's level headed. Rattler is kind of back and forth for me. The other two seem like pretty likable kids for the most part.

If I remember correctly, Rattler doesn't finish the season. He gets suspended for something by the league or school.

Thanks, looking forward to checking this out. For the record, I was not very impressed by Justin Fields’ prowess as a leader or his character in the previous edition of QB1. He also appeared inconsistent in reading defenses and his accuracy, which has been a consistent theme. I enjoyed that season quite a bit.

I liked Fields a lot better when he was a Georgia commit. Now, looking back, he was kind of a douche.

The most likable QB1 Georgia commit was Jake Fromm. Could also be because he was on the same season as Tathan and you had that comparison always in your mind. Good kid, good family, seemed pretty humble and wasn’t full of himself. Type of guy you are glad to see find success.

My daughter went to HS with him at Harrison and can confirm this.

I keep trying to convince myself of that, but truth is, I was super impressed when I watched it. He's an elite athlete. I thought maybe his only weak point was that he grew up in such a nice, upper-middle class household there was a certain laissez-faire attitude he brought onto the field (and definitely off the field) that made me feel like he wasn't as passionate or hungry as some players I've seen. Overall I found him likable, unlike Tate "Is My Hair Perfect?" Martell.
Definitely got the feeling he could live without football, which, good for him life-wise, but maybe not football-wise. We shall see. I expect he'll be pretty good right out of the gate. He's got the skills.

I love this show. Watched the previous 2 seasons. Psyched for this one. One day, hopefully, we'll have a Michigan QB on it, that'd be cool.

I mean JD Johnson is in this season
August 16th, 2019 at 9:26 PM ^
Maybe I'll actually watch this season. Had no interest in the OSU QBs in the first 2.

Having watched a few scattered episodes and now the first couple of Season 3, I'm not a huge fan of the show. It's cool that you get pretty extensive highlights, but otherwise the show feels like one part character study, three parts melodrama, and three parts motivational t-shirt (whereas Last Chance U feels a lot more character study and less motivational t-shirt).

Been watching season 3 all evening. That Ft. Lauderdale dad is a hero-chasing doucher!

The Florida kid and Spencer Rattler come off as though their opinion of themselves is greater than their talent, especially the way they both constantly blame their team and/or coaches for bad outcomes.
The New Orleans kid seems down to earth and a good respectable kid. My favorite part is how big of a role the local barbers ( and their shop ) play in his life , loaning jewelry and a car to him so he can go to prom in style ( especially since he just got his license )
This season the talent seems a bit lower overall.
And I know he ended up at the worst possible place , but Fields looked extremely special in his season. Never want to see a kid fail , but maybe an off game in November would be fine.

Fromm impressed me big time. I’m rooting for him now unless we play him.

Munchie Legaux sighting!
