Hello: JD Johnson 2020 QB

You should take your own advice and stop being such an asshole to people who disagree with you.
December 21st, 2018 at 12:23 PM ^
Lol another new account to jump to Maizen's defense. Shocker
December 21st, 2018 at 12:12 PM ^
He's gonna have to hire two guys just to create new accounts fast enough.
December 21st, 2018 at 11:20 AM ^
First thing that jumps out at me watching the hudl tape is how effortlessly he throws it. I always notice that when I see Patrick Mahomes. Just a flick of the wrist goes 40 yards.
December 21st, 2018 at 12:05 PM ^
Mahomes was also a 3 star, #398 national, 22nd ranked pro style QB.
December 21st, 2018 at 4:14 PM ^
Egggggsellent. I'm liking that parallel.
December 21st, 2018 at 11:36 AM ^
Don't know what video you all are watching but he is slow and arm strength is mediocre. Have a hard time believing the coaches can't find a higher rated prospect.
December 21st, 2018 at 11:41 AM ^
Another brand new account. Hmmm.
December 21st, 2018 at 11:47 AM ^
So what's you point and or problem?
I like the Dax Hill and Smith recruitment. Need a class full of those types.
December 21st, 2018 at 12:06 PM ^
Bexter gets banned and this account shows up immediately.
December 21st, 2018 at 12:16 PM ^
I can assure you I'm not bexter and I didn't say anything horrible. Im sure he's a fine person, just not a elite athlete in my opinion. Why are you so hurt and salty?
December 21st, 2018 at 11:37 AM ^
Also keep in mind how much recruits can move in rankings. I bet the stargazers will be happy at the end of the year when he’s a solid 4 star.
December 21st, 2018 at 11:42 AM ^
Who cares about stars compare his highlights to Haskins, Tuglovia, Lawrench he's not in their class.
Sorry just telling it like it is, need superior athletes to keep up with the Jones Didn't 62-39 tell you something?
December 21st, 2018 at 12:20 PM ^
Posting things like this will get you banned around these parts. Funny how the same people who bitched about Gil and Watson getting toasted against OSU are the same ones hyped up about a QB ranked in the 500's. You know who else was ranked in this range? John O'Korn and Wilton Speight.
December 21st, 2018 at 11:44 AM ^
Maizen might not like it but others do. I will bet that he will soar in the rankings.

His high school is a mile from my house. Didn't get to his games this year but will certainly do so for his senior year.
December 21st, 2018 at 11:57 AM ^
He looks good, but the tape doesn't scream top 150-200 guy. His mobility appears good, but maybe a notch below McCaffrey. I'm more concerned about his arm at the moment, as I didn't see a lot of zip on his passes on his highlight video but that may be a function of his technique as he seems to throw flat footed a bit (sometimes because he has to). Doesn't mean that won't develop, just something to keep an eye on as he adds strength.
December 21st, 2018 at 12:24 PM ^
I thought when Harbaugh was hired he would be able to have his pick of anyone he wanted at QB. Thank god Shea Patterson transferred in.
December 21st, 2018 at 12:06 PM ^
Awesome! I used to drive by that school when I worked there for my uncle about a decade and a half ago. The Pinnacle Peak. The wee lad was probably watching Pokemon back then and just learning to run. Go Blue!
December 21st, 2018 at 12:49 PM ^
Reminds me of Mcaffrey. Can run but leaves you scared he is going to get broken in half with how he runs. Doesn't have any zip on his balls, but hopefully that improves as he gets stronger. Likely a bit of a project, but he won't be starting right away anyways.
December 21st, 2018 at 1:21 PM ^
Gotta get Pep out of the program
December 21st, 2018 at 3:23 PM ^
Any chance we keep pursuing McQuarrie?
December 21st, 2018 at 4:52 PM ^
I am dead serious. A mobile Dan Marino.... Sometimes he has a clunky release, but sometimes he has that quick flip from the ear release and ball gets there a lot quicker than you think. A little work with his mechanics and he will be a good one. Fastest release of any young QB at Michigan in sometime.
December 21st, 2018 at 8:13 PM ^
I can see the Marino comparison. A low L position and an abbreviated elbow roll (zero position). Relies on the flick and forward extension to add velocity. The motion might limit his distance and velocity, but he’s young and plenty of time to develop more arm strength.
He stands tall and fairly mobile. Kid has potential and plenty of development time before UM needs him.
December 22nd, 2018 at 11:01 AM ^
So he will be the 4th QB behind McCaffrey, Milton & McNamara.
Expecting Peters to transfer now that Shea is returning.
