Looks like the last 3 QB's before Scott that won the Gatorade POY in Louisiana were:

2015 - Deshawn Capers-Smith (CB at Texas A&M - played sparingly as true frosh)
2009 - Dez Duron (QB at Yale, never took a varsity snap)
2008 - Jordan Jefferson (Former LSU QB)

Jefferson was the last one to actually play a varsity snap at the position in college.

Best QB by recruiting year in Louisiana
2011 - Dak Prescott - He was elite (Mississippi State)
2012 - D'Shaie Lindor - UL Lafayette
2013 - Damien Williams - Miss State
2014 - Brandon Harris - LSU
2015 - Jason Pellerin - Ole Miss
2016 - Cole Kelley - Arkansas

Just passing along that information.  It is extremely hard for an elite talent to slip through all of Louisiana without an offer from a SEC school.

My opinion on Scott is that he is the Zach Allen of this coaching change.  Wish him the best, but people on this board are greatly overvaluing what his production can be at the D-1 level at the Quarterback position.  While he is an athlete with value, is he really a better RB then some of the true RB's we are recruiting?

He may prove me wrong.  I hope he does and has a very successful career, but its not like he is a diamond in the rough, which I think Dungey was in a sense.  Scott played at a big school and won a state championship/POY in a heavily recruited football state.
