Lol, he could throw further than 20 yards, he started only his senior season and sat behind more talented QB’s his other 3 years at the school. If Coach J wanted his son to play start at the position despite not having the talent to do so, he would have done it before his senior season.
The fact is he was the best available player at the qb position that season, he obviously grew up in the system, playing on the freshmen and jv teams and as backup his junior year.
He must of been capable enough to earn a D1 scholarship to Akron where he is still as a redshirt sophomore. Any thoughts of nepotism at Vero can probably stop at the high school level because no D1 program will waste a scholarship as a favor to a friend, they obviously saw something there or they wouldn’t have extended the offer.
