Recruiting analysts say its tougher to project which top prospects will succeed in college at quarterback than at any other position.A look at their rankings bears that out.Only one of the top nine quarterbacks in the 2013 class started more than three games for the school that originally signed him, according to composite rankings of recruiting websites compiled by 247Sports . Thats No. 2 Christian Hackenberg, who played three seasons at Penn State before being drafted in the second round by the New York Jets.By comparison, nine of the top 15 overall 2013 prospects regardless of position are in the NFL after being drafted in the first two rounds.I dont think its hard to evaluate the physical skills that are required to play the position, Alabama coach Nick Saban said. But I think some of the most important things in playing quarterback are decision-making, judgment, timing, leadership, accuracy under pressure, and those things are much more difficult to evaluate until a player is actually called upon to do that in your particular system, even in some cases.Just four of the top 20 quarterbacks from the 2013 class are currently starting for the schools they originally signed with: Ohio States J.T. Barrett (No. 10), Tennessees Joshua Dobbs (No. 13), Stanfords Ryan Burns (No. 15) and North Carolinas Mitch Trubisky (No. 19).The other four starters from the top 20 are transfers, with only one at a Power Five school. Charlottes Kevin Olsen (No. 5) originally signed with Miami. Utahs Troy Williams (No. 7) started out at Washington. Northern Iowas Aaron Bailey (No. 12) transferred from Illinois. Louisiana Lafayettes Anthony Jennings (No. 20) came from LSU.It is a tougher position to evaluate, said Barton Simmons, the national scouting director for 247Sports. Theres a litany of factors why, the primary one being that quarterback moreso than any other position is all about intangibles.You obviously have to have ability to be successful, but the great ones are the ones that have some things you just cant measure, whether that be toughness or leadership ability or the ability to make plays in big moments and compute all the different things that a quarterback has to absorb over the course of a game, play or season.Coaches encounter similar problems trying to decide which quarterbacks to pursue without knowing their mental makeup.What you dont see on film is leadership, Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen said. Its hard to evaluate the processing of information and intelligence because a lot of times you dont know what theyre being coached to do (in high school).In an era of 7-on-7 tournaments and offseason camps, quarterbacks are seen more often in a variety of different environments before they ever arrive on campus. Simmons believes that generally has made it easier to evaluate but notes analysts occasionally can get bamboozled by how someone fares in these settings.Simmons remembers how Michigans Shane Morris performed so well at 7-on-7 events that it was tempting to overlook his so-so high school completion percentage. Morris, the No. 3 quarterback in the 2013 class, according to the 247Sports Composite, has started only two college games and hasnt thrown a single touchdown pass.Former NFL quarterback Trent Dilfer says quarterbacks shouldnt be judged solely on how they perform in those types of controlled environments. Dilfer works as a head coach of Elite 11, a quarterback competition for prospects across the country.The analogy I give all the time is what if the PGA Tour went and gave you a card based on how you hit it on the driving range? Dilfer asked. It would be such a different PGA Tour. The guys that actually get the ball in the hole and know how to compete and how to overcome swing flaws and bad days and wind gusts and bad lies and all the other things that come with it, theyre the guys who win.Mike Farrell, the national recruiting analyst for Rivals, says 7-on-7 events and camps can measure a quarterbacks physical traits. High school results can show how he performs in game situations. But theres still a key element missing.The one thing you cant replicate when youre scouting a high school quarterback is a 280-pound future first-round defensive end coming around the edge in his face, Farrell said. What is he going to do then?It isnt just the high bust rate of top prospects that reveals the difficulty of projecting which quarterbacks will succeed in college. There also are the quarterbacks who outperform their rankings. Consider the case of Louisville sophomore Lamar Jackson, the early Heisman Trophy front-runner who was rated a three-star prospect (on a scale of five) by multiple recruiting services.Farrell, whose service rated Jackson as a four-star prospect, understands why the former Boynton Beach High School star has exceeded expectations.We didnt know that running away from everybody in South Florida would translate to running away from everybody in the entire country in college, Farrell said. He looked fast, but he didnt look this fast.Jackson also found the right spot at Louisville playing for Bobby Petrino, and perhaps thats the biggest key to projecting success.Dilfer isnt convinced that its more difficult to evaluate quarterback prospects, noting highly regarded recruits at other positions also often fail to live up to their rankings. But he does believe that finding the right school is more important than having the most talent.Do you fit where youre going? Dilfer said. Do you fit athletically? Do you fit in terms of your ability to actually (play) quarterback? Do you fit into the style of play they use? Do you fit into the culture? Do you fit into the school? Do you fit into the social environment?Its all about fit.---AP Sports Writers David Brandt and John Zenor contributed to this report.---Online: The APs college football page: http://collegfootball.ap.org Cheap Wholesale Air Max .

Fremantle coach Ross Lyon says his team cant rely on the emotion surrounding Matthew Pavlichs 350-game milestone to give them the winning edge against Sydney this weekend.Domain Stadium will be in a Pav frenzy on Sunday as the Dockers attempt to honour the club legend with a win.Pavlich will retire at the end of the AFL season, meaning fans only have a handful of games to farewell the 34-year-old.Dockers players will be desperate to put in a good effort on Pavlichs big day.But Lyon said it was unlikely the milestone would have a long-lasting effect on the game.I think theres some emotion and that initial burst of energy, but then the game finds its rhythm, Lyon said.Its unsustainable for 100 minutes, that burst of emotion.But I certainly give it (the milestone) the respect it deserves. We always talk about honouring it with really good effort.Lyon said Pavlichs farewell game - likely to be in the round 23 home clash with the Western Bulldogs - loomed as the bigger occasion.Pavlich is feeling fresh after being rested for last weeks loss to Gold Coast.And he could have a couple of old mates join him for next weeks western derby, with ruckman Aaron Sandilands and goalsneak Hayden Ballantyne closing in on returns.Sandilands hasnt played since suffering a punctured lung and broken ribs in the round-three deerby loss to West Coast.ddddddddddddBut the 33-year-old is back in full training and rated a legitimate chance by Lyon to face the Eagles next week.Ballantyne fractured his cheekbone two weeks ago, and came close to being named against Sydney.Defender Michael Johnson (hamstring/knee) faces an uphill battle to play again this year.Lyon swung a surprise on the selection front this week when he axed emerging star Connor Blakely.Blakely has been a rare shining light for the Dockers this season, with the 20-year-old averaging 20 possessions a game in a breakout campaign.But Lyon said Blakely needed a stint in the WAFL to fix up his disposal efficiency.Hes turning it over more than we would like, Lyon said.Darcy Tucker went back (to the WAFL), Ed Langdon went back, so sometimes youve got to alleviate the pressure valve on them.Hes disappointed obviously, but hell bounce back and we should see him again before the end of the year.Lyon also axed Jon Griffin following a series of underwhelming displays from the ruckman.Zac Clarke will lead the tap duties against Sydney, who are light on in the ruck department following injuries to Kurt Tippett (hamstring) and Callum Sinclair (knee). cheap falcons jerseys cheap ravens jerseys cheap bills jerseys cheap bears jerseys cheap bengals jerseys cheap cowboys jerseys cheap lions jerseys cheap texans jerseys cheap colts jerseys cheap jaguars jerseys cheap chiefs jerseys cheap rams jerseys cheap dolphins jerseys cheap vikings jerseys cheap saints jerseys cheap giants jerseys cheap jets jerseys cheap eagles jerseys cheap steelers jerseys cheap 49ers jerseys ' ' '
