This kid might set the world on fire at Northwestern. But I’m not going to lose sleep over this flip.

Some context…

From the Canton Repository, he has 16 offers, “ranging from the Mid-American Conference (Akron, Kent State, Miami, Bowling Green, Toledo, Eastern Michigan, Ball State) to the Ivy League (Dartmouth, Yale) to FCS schools (Youngstown State, Colgate, Maine, Lehigh) to Liberty.” The other two are Northwestern and Syracuse.

He did not win his conference last year. Dru DeShields was outstanding for West Branch (Ohio) for several seasons, won the Eastern Buckeye Conference and committed to Kent. I have not seen Zurbrugg in person, but I have seen DeShields. He’s amazing. And he’s a MAC QB recruit.

Zurbrugg had the third most passing yards in Stark County last fall. I’ve watched the other two on multiple occasions. Poochie Snyder is outstanding and dynamic for Canton South, leading the county in passing yards. His offers heading into senior year? Maine and Sacred Heart. The other QB ahead of him in Stark County passing yards is a talented kid out of Fairless High School named Carson Colucci. He’s getting looks from local D3 powerhouse Mount Union.

Zurbrugg will likely have an outstanding senior season. But the two P5 offers seem like the outliers here.

Time will tell. Good luck to him in purple.
