Message: [QUOTE="billsin01, post: 3437329, member: 837"] Nice find. Yeah, they look similar to me. I remember watching Book's film in high school and liking him but being a little surprised he got an ND offer. Then I watched him play for about 5 plays in relief of Wimbush and realized he was by far the better QB (though I guess the lesser of the two athletically). It will be interesting to watch what happens between Lamson and Riley Leonard since both ended up in the ACC, both are with good QB coaches and both profile to be dual-threat type kids. i think Leonard has the higher upside. He looks like an unmolded piece of clay but he's really long, has easy, easy arm strength and tremendous athleticism. But he's going to need to be coached up. The floor is lower there, IMO. Lamson I think will walk on campus ready to compete and could be really good. Not sure the ceiling is quite as high but honestly you never quite know. Would have been happy with either kid but for what dino needs (including a potential game-ready backup for Tommy ASAP), Lamson might actually be the better fit. As an aside -- Book's numbers in two years as an ND starter (which includes 19 TDs vs. the blitz last year even though ND fans thought he got jittery when pressured): *2018*2019 [TABLE] [TR] [TD]Notre Dame[/TD] [TD]Ind[/TD] [TD]JR[/TD] [TD]QB[/TD] [TD]10[/TD] [TD]214[/TD] [TD]314[/TD] [TD]68.2[/TD] [TD]2628[/TD] [TD]8.4[/TD] [TD]8.6[/TD] [TD]19[/TD] [TD]7[/TD] [TD]154.0[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Notre Dame[/TD] [TD]Ind[/TD] [TD]SR[/TD] [TD]QB[/TD] [TD]13[/TD] [TD]240[/TD] [TD]399[/TD] [TD]60.2[/TD] [TD]3034[/TD] [TD]7.6[/TD] [TD]8.6[/TD] [TD]34[/TD] [TD]6[/TD] [TD]149.[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] Both were three star kids. Think it's a good comp but obviously a ton of expectations on a young kid. [/QUOTE]
