[QUOTE="Techster, post: 543914, member: 360"] I said in his recruiting thread that Yates reminds me a LOT of Russell Wilson. Not the biggest, not the tallest, not the strongest of arms, not the fastest...but he just has that "it" factor and does just enough to beat you and makes everyone around him better. I remember watching Russell Wilson play against us for NC State and kept thinking to myself: Why in the world can we not tackle this guy...he's not that fast? Holy crap, why aren't our DBs getting to the ball faster...he's not Peyton Manning?! How are we losing to NC State?!!! The leadership he's displayed throughout the recruiting process, and after he's signed isn't surprising...but just reiterates what kind of player GT is getting. A LOT of teams missed on this guy, it's probably because of his size. That's OK, because GT has always won with undersized QBs (Shawn Jones, Joe Hamilton, Reggie Ball, JeT) who didn't fit the "NFL QB" model. Credit to CPJ for targeting him early and being his first P5 offer. [/QUOTE]
