    He has strong arm, he reminds me more of Donnovan McNabb than RG3.

    ESPN reports that LSU has also offered Pro-Style QB Jeremy Johnson (6'5, 195 to 215) from Montgomery, Alabama -- who is in contention to be the top-ranked prospect out of Alabama

    LSU offers Alabama QB Jeremy Johnson - Football Recruiting - Southeast Region Blog - ESPN


    247 Sports currently rates him as the #13 pro-style QB, #224 on their Top 247, 4-star. he's also an excellent basketball player and could play guard in college.

    here are his highlights:

    here are his stats (he had a drop in production after losing his best WRs to graduation):
    Player Profiles: Carver (HS), AL. JEREMY JOHNSON

    he has offers to Ole Miss and Auburn, and Auburn is really hard after him (Auburn even hired his high school head football coach Al Pogue as their Offensive Quality Control coach). he's also been to Auburn's camp and has gone to two visits at Auburn for home football games. also, according to the Bama boards, his high school basketball team is #1 in Alabama and his coach used to play basketball at Alabama and is pro-active in selling kids on Bama. Florida State fans also think they have a good shot at him.

    his sophomore year was his school's first year in 6A, which is Alabama's top division. here are his sophomore highlights against juggernaut Prattville High, who already has at least two Alabama commits, and entered the 2011 season as the No. 1 ranked team in the country with close to 20 D-I prospects in the 2012 and 2013 classes.

    some of his more impressive throws vs Prattville:
    0:03 -- throws it 22 yards in the air for a completion
    1:07 -- throws it 45 yards in the air for a completion
    1:26 -- throws it 20 yards in the air for a TD
    2:17 -- throws it 20 yards in the air for a TD
    3:04 -- throws it 25 yards in the air for a completion

    and here are his highlights at the 2011 National Select 7-on-7 2011, where he led his high school to the championship and won it (and 20 of the 31 participating teams were ranked in the RivalsHigh 100 over the last three seasons)

    If we lose this kid from Wichita Falls, it'll be all KyleK's fault

    Expect WR Ricky Seals-Jones (#13 on rivals) to commit to Texas this week some time.

    Of the 3 QB's we have video of in this thread, I'd say Barrett looks best, especially where throwing mechanics are concerned.

    Hopefully we're not too finicky and offer him.
