Daily Dose: Dec. 29 - Over the line!

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Remember last fall after Aurora Christian senior QB Jordan Roberts became the most prolific high school passer in Illinois history?

Remember when he didn't get a single Division I scholarship offer?

Why was that? A couple of things - 1. arm strength, or lack thereof (so said D1 recruiters) and 2. size.
Some said he couldn't see over the line very well.

He's not the only one. It doesn't matter the stats - you can't get any love if you don't have certain cookie-cutter measurables. Even if your last name is Favre.
