Notes: "rhythm and timing passer" ... "long, lean frame" ... "redshirt candidate in order to develop and add bulk and strength" ... "plays both under center and out of the shotgun" ... "very effective short and intermediate range passer" ... "consistent, quick feet" ... "with his height and delivery he will not be at risk to have many ball batted down at the line" ... "lacks great power, zip and ability to drive the ball vertically and into tight spots" ... "Definite late-bloomer who could rise at the next level"

Quotables: "He's just an incredible guy and a great coach. It was awesome meeting him."

"It's just amazing. I sat down and talked with Coach (Bill) Lazor and he walked through the whole offensive scheme. I felt like it just fit me so well. I talked to Coach (Shawn) Moore this past week and he talked about his experience at Virginia when he was playing. He had them ranked number one in the nation and they're trying to get back to that point."

"I was talking to all of the schools that I had visited but I was always talking with Virginia a lot, whether it be on Facebook or e-mailing them or just calling them. Especially of late over the past month or so. Something just started clicking a month ago. I really built that relationship with Virginia. I talked to them every day this week and it just felt right."
