Virginia lands Cutler

The Virginia Cavaliers have grabbed their 7^th commitment for the 2013 class, as Ocean Lakes Quarterback Corwin "Turtle" Cutler committed to UVA today. Cutler is the 3^rd commit for UVA from the State of Virginia, joining Varina Safety Tim Harris and Oscar Smith Wide Receiver Zack Jones, and the 2^nd Quarterback in the class, along with Good Counsel QB Brendan Marshall. Virginia was the only school that has offered Cutler to this point. The Ocean Lakes signal-caller is a 3-star prospect, and is rated the 21^st best player in the state by Streaking the Lawn. Cutler will join former teammate and Cavalier signee Eli Harold in Charlottesville next year.

Cutler stands at 6'4'' 180 lbs, another tall Quarterback (Lambert, Johns and Marshall are all 6'5'') for Virginia. Although Cutler only holds one offer, he has shown well at camps this spring. Cutler won the Leadership Award at a combine in New Jersey recently and also showed well at the Baltimore NFTC and Junior Rank camp in Virginia Beach in recent weeks. Cutler has a strong arm, as well as the ability to fit balls into small windows. The future Cavalier also has good touch on passes where he has to go over defenders heads on deep routes. Cutler also plays against some of the best competition in the state, the Beach District, which won't hurt for his transition to the next level.

Even though Virginia didn't need another Quarterback for the 2013 class, Cutler is a nice luxury to have. Even with his commitment to UVA, expect Cutler's offer list to grow over the summer, especially if he continues to show well at the camps and combines he attends. With Cutler on board, Virginia now has 3 Quarterbacks from the "757" area, with David Watford and Phillip Sims already on the roster. Expect Cutler to redshirt in 2013, then learn under the more experience Quarterbacks before competing for playing time a few years down the road.
