Class of 2025 QB Rich Belin (NY) COMMITTED TO SYRACUSE (6/27/24)

[BKCuse]

For those that don't know, Madei is a QB coach now but back in the day, he was also a quarterback at Syracuse.

Does Madei pronounce his name Ma-day or Ma-dee ?

 

[OmahaCuse]

Yeah I didn’t know what to think considering the offers and the fact he was a WR previously, but watching his film obviously there are things to work on but I do believe the concept that larger schools shied away due to the height is reasonable. He can play.

Mayfield, Caleb Williams, etc..

Mayfield, Caleb Williams, etc..

Bryce Young was the #1 pick, and he's a Smurf. I think height is overrated in cfb.

Lots of ways to get a 6ft qb to success in the college game. It happens all over.

we can win with this kid. He might not have the prototypical measurements, but he is a winner. His arm looks adequate and his ability with his legs makes him hard to defend. I wouldn't be surprised to see him starting in a few years.

I feel like speed and strength are more important in CFB if we’re not concerned about draft status.

Rich is also really intelligent.

He is going to be an interesting player to watch. I suspect he will find a way to become a factor on this team.

...whether at QB or another position.

Agree that draft status is less of a factor in cfb. That said, (unlike HS) he'll have to throw (and see) over an OL packed with guys that are 6-4 to 6-9. That could be an issue. Either way, he's a talented player who'll be given a hard look at QB or another position that fits his skills.

Agree Russell Wilson type

So interesting thing about Wilson, he has huge hands. Tends to be a trend among shorter QBs that make it.

One might wonder what Belin's hand measurements are.
