Class of 2020 QB Dan Villari (NY/Michigan) TRANSFERRING TO SYRACUSE (1/11/22)

[CuseLegacy]

Thanks...an actual post about Dan Villari.
Gentlemen take the discussion about past and present QBs to the football forum.

 

[CuseLegacy]

I moved the QB discussion to the FB forum.
This thread is for discussion of Villari, not other SU QBs past or present. Keep the discussion on topic.

IF the "scouting" report from Villari's private QB coach is even remotely on target regarding his passing ability, we have reason to be excited by the addition of another very big, athletic "cat" who already has 2 years of practice experience in a blue blood program. It's a win-win to add this level of competition to the QB room regardless of who is eventually QB1, 2, or 3. Villari's tapes as a runner, at 6-4 235, are impressive despite the level of competition he faced.

Who knows how this will play out, that's part of the fun of being excited by the possibilities. Even better, Anae/Beck have years of experience making this very scenario work - getting athletic, playmakers on the field at the same time as QB and "football player." The more weapons the better.

I am looking forward to them repeating this scenario every recruiting cycle.

IDK... if he ain't good enough for Harbaugh...

 

[Cheriehoop]

Yup:

And offered his wide receiver who kept making somegreat catches,

Name a passing QB other than Nassib whom had success at SU.

Todd Philcox -9 years in the NFL.

 

[RoatanCuse]

Nothing like starting out with lofty expectations

Who….us?

 

[grepal]

No more Italian QBs please.

And yes that's a joke.
What?
What are you lookin' at?

Hopefully we've made him an offer he can't refuse.

Dan Marino says hello.

Love this. The more QBs the better. Let em all get coached up and may the best man win.

Love this. The more QBs the better. Let em all get coached up and may 5th e best man win.

I’m kinda hoping the 1st best man wins.

If he doesn't ninja kick someone on the field over the time he's eligible here this pickup was wasted.

He stiff armed the same defensive back TWICE in his high school highlight film. I think that is almost as good as Dungey’s Ninja Kick.

That double stiff arm was great. Looked like it may have been a linebacker too.

But nothing can compare to The Ninja Kick. If SU builds a statue of Dungey it has to be of him doing the kick lol

 

[SUFaninNJ]

But can he rip an interception away from a defensive player?

 

[dollarbill44]

Put a big beard on him and he would look just like Shrader.

 

[orangencpolice]

I know ultimately there can only be one starter, but it would be fun to see Shrader and Villari both share time. The Garrett and Dan Show.

That would be sick. Two bruiser QBs both with fresh legs all game long

Villari, as his coach said and his film shows, can throw accurately and run. It is exciting to know he will be coached by Jason Beck starting soon. As shown by his tapes he can accurately throw through tight windows or throw 50 YDS accurately and can run ala Eric maybe faster. In any case we have a great recruit coming in to compete for the job at QB as Shrader came in last year to compete with Devito.

From the Athletic, subscription article, noteworthy excerpt:

What made Syracuse the right spot for you? How do you feel like you fit the system there?

The new coaches coming in, Coach (Jason) Beck and Coach (Robert) Anae, they were at Virginia last year. They like to throw it around a lot. They like to run the quarterback, do RPOs and things like that. I feel like that fits my game the best. Syracuse is a great opportunity for me to get a chance to compete and play.

 

[CuseLegacy]

Coach and Mrs Beck both liked this tweet.

Coach and Mrs Beck both liked this tweet.

I am clueless on the mechanics of throwing a football, but all I know is that looked good.

 

[kcsu]

Kids supposed to have a rocket arm

 

[djorange1989]

That is a strong arm

 

[Trueblue25]

We will know if he is he who was promise if he engages in a sideline brawl vs Boston College in his first ACC game.

If that totem occurs, anything goes

 

[ScriptCuse]

Kid can sling it off his back foot, lot to like from that short clip!

Think they left his uniform in the dryer on high a little too long lol
