Did Doug Flutie ever hit a growth spurt? lol

Sounds like he needs to GOMAD (gallon of milk a day) for the summer and lift.

Zee, I've watched the kid since middle school and at Teurlings the last three years so I've seen him grow up in Sonny's offense. There were two questions concerning Landor according to college coaches, one he answered last season on the varsity level concerning his ability to get down the field. Of course having seen him start JV as a true freshman, he ran plenty that season. As Grady has stated, he ran a 4.55 at the NUC combine and 4.6 at UL recently. The other question is in regard to his weight at 170 right now. The concern is considering his body type, if can he add enough weight to play at the D1 level to his frame. All kids go through growth spurts, he could add some muscle to his frame. But I don't see him carrying more then 20 to 25 pounds more to that frame and when you look at him, he does not have broad shoulders. He will take two years to develop his body in college to play at 190 to 195. Keep in mind, he has been in a high school weight program for four summer now, and weighs 170 pounds.

Brady compared him to Pat White, that is a pretty good comparison although Landor throws that ball better then White did coming out of HS and just not as fast.

I see him as a kid that will need two years to hit the field in college, not because he lacks anything in arm strenght or speed, but his body will need time to develop in a college strenght and conditioning program.

We have a QB in our system right now that has a stronger arm, runs faster, and has more size than Landor that can't get onto the field.

Right, so does that mean anyone with a weaker arm, slower legs, and less size than Blaine can't get on the field, because that would include Drew Brees.

Blaine will be gone in two seasons, we need another QB along with Broadway........we have two walk-ons in Saunders and Thomas.

Nope at all. I just want someone who will win. That was kind of my point. The QB position is the one position were the size, arm strength, and 40 times is not the most important quality. I will take leadership and the IT factor any day.

Thanks, BJ for your coverage of recruiting. The youtube videos has been a nice addition.

Thats why Blaine needs to be at WR they are wasting him at QB.

This is why you need to be in a straight jacket and not playing on your Mom's 'puter.

Teurlings HS QB D’Shaie Landor came in this weekend with a number of other top prospects on the Ragin’Cajuns recruiting board. After taking in the crowd and game atmosphere, Landor decided there was no need to wait any longer giving the UL staff his verbal commitment late this afternoon.

This is an exciting "get" for the program. This young man has been starting at Tuerlings since he was a sophomore and is a natural passer.
