Wow. Just watched his hudl and came away really impressed. First thing that jumped off the video was his size...at least twice the size of some of the smaller high school players and can very easily see over an OL. Second thing is his athleticism. Good speed and shiftiness to make tacklers miss. On a few runs, he shed a few tackles and showed good strength even while tight-roping the sidelines. Third, fantastic arm strength. I agree with Drew: when his feet are set, he has great arm and accuracy. When in scramble mode, he has a laser and is fairly accurate when scrambling to his right (natural for a right-handed QB). When scrambling to his left, there isn't quite as much zip and accuracy but still good. A redshirt year would definitely do him good to work on his footwork and throwing agility.
There are GREAT tools here. Size, speed, agility, strength and good accuracy. There are a few lasers from the far hashmark to the opposite side of the field (one for a TD thrown perfectly to the outside shoulder) that are incredibly promising. All in all, this is a GREAT get. A redshirt year running scout team would be ideal to put distance between him and Cochran/Boyle. Plus, he will help our D prepare for athletic QBs on our schedule.
