[Sotakid]

i know alts playing hockey but he is a talent on the FB field as well and the best QB prospect in the state next year as of right now

[runner616]

I'm not a great hockey mind, so could someone brief me on Alt's hockey vs. football potential?

[gopherguy05]

It doesn't really matter. He likes hockey more and has a scholarship from the Gophers. He's not going to change his mind.

[jordanjo]

Alt? he is the best qb prospect? wow I watched him play and no way he would he make division II roster.

If he is the best qb prospect, thank god we have gray and alipate for a while now.

[The Brewmaster]

I'm not a great hockey mind, so could someone brief me on Alt's hockey vs. football potential?

He had his choice of any hockey program in the country. I don't anticipate Florida, USC, Alabama, Texas or Oklahoma offering. That should put things into perspective.

[Sotakid]

maybe not but i had heard that ucla were taking a look at him. where did his dad play at in college?

[GopherNation5]

maybe not but i had heard that ucla were taking a look at him. where did his dad play at in college?

Yes, alt actually received a scholarship offer from UCLA

[tundra]

maybe not but i had heard that ucla were taking a look at him. where did his dad play at in college?

assuming you are not joking, i believe Alt's dad is around my age, having played HS ball about the same time. His HS was columbia heights and played for IA. grrrrr.

prior to your post, i wasn't sure we'd see anything factually correct within this thread :D

[Sotakid]

dinky believe what you want but i dont post BS

[grunkiejr]

I've seen Alt play too and I didn't think he looked like a Big Ten QB. I could be wrong but I don't think there will be a QB in the state of Minnesota that gets a scholarship offer to play at Minnesota this year. Most of the talent in the state is along the OL, DL and at LB/RB.

[calminnfan]

About the only thing that seems certain is that he will not duel sport it at MN. Between Hockey and football, you have a couple of pretty rough sports on the body. It aint going to happen.

[Sotakid]

i dont want alt either and i also dont think we will take a QB from minnesota. im just saying what i saw and heard

[CWCWCW]

Jmo (Parsons) certainly is silky with quite an arm. Having seen Eagan play at least 4 games last year, he would be familiar with Dunbar's old offense. Eagan spreads 'em out and sees what happens. Just like the Gopher's Weber, Parsons gets beat up in the Lake Conference. What a tough kid he was last year as a sophomore. He could use some meat on his bones, and mature a bit, but he could be Division 1 material. His center is doggone good, too.

[ConferenceChamp]

It doesn't really matter. He likes hockey more and has a scholarship from the Gophers. He's not going to change his mind.

Gopherguy05,

yeah, maybe you're right...but then again, maybe you're wrong:D :confused: ;)

[Gold Rush]

I heard that his hockey scholarship offer from the Gophers was for only 15 per cent.
If he were to get a full ride to play football somewhere, that could change his mind.

[gopherguy05]

He's suddenly been pimping his football skills a lot more since last winter...as of then he was all gung ho for hockey..now it seems he is trying to keep his hockey offer while shopping himself for football offers...frankly ticking off some of the more connected people in the hockey program from what i've heard.....

this could be interesting to see what happens....but it definately seems like he wants to play football instead of hockey now...which according to all the scouts seems like a stupid idea since he projects as an NHL talent nut not an NFL one... but i'm not Mark Alt and he can make up his mind...be a star defenseman for the gophers, or ride the pine as a 3rd string qb for a bcs football program.

[RunGopherRun]

Parsons from Eagan is one of the best all around athletes in the state in any grade. I don't know if his arm strength and pure passing ability would translate to big time DI football, but the kid can make plays. He is a bit injury prone (broken foot as soph and collarbone as this past season), but the Eagan team was a different animal with him on the field.

[Schnoodler]

I Like your moniker.

Breathe, breathe in the air
Don't be afraid to care
Leave, but don't leave me
Look around
Choose your own ground

Long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be

Run, gopher run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down
It's time to dig another one

For long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave

[mkAz]

The only QB's listed by Rivals are Jake Quast from Woodbury and Brian Athey from Eden Prairie.

"pimping" his football skills:rolleyes:

great verb, you (gopherguy05) of the limited vocabulary:rolleyes:

As far as Alt being all "gung ho" for hockey...was this to the exclusion of football?
Can't a modern-day Joe Mauer be gung ho for two sports?

The "connected people" in the U's hockey program (i.e. Don Lucia) are not stupid. They know Mark Alt has always had football in his heart...but not to the exclusion of hockey:D

[Nort73]

Probably not the best as of next year, but Phillip Nelson from Mankato West is gonna be one hell of a QB. He's only going to be a Junior, and started last year on a team that made it to the Championship game. He has great potential and is 6'3" I'm pretty sure (don't quote me on that ha). He's probably going to walk out of West the best QB in the school's history. I believe last year going into the Championship game he had 20+ TDs and less than 5 INTs.

Former Cretin 2-sport stud Joe Mauer a decade ago...

Faxed LOI to Bobby Bowden, but then said yes to MLB.

Bobby bowden took getting jilted like a man;)


Current Cretin 2-sport stud Mark Alt today...

Top 20 high school hockey player in America, verbally committed to Don Lucia as a sophomore, with the caveat that he wanted to be a Gopher IF he decided to play college hockey.

Alt might also be considering a full ride to play QB at his dream schoool for Kirk Ferentz.;)

He may have to tell either Lucia or Ferentz 'NO.' Wonder if the jilted one will take it like a man?:rolleyes:

Mauer a decade ago?...Alt today?...are there any similarities??

Maybe just a one or two.:D

[MNBadgerGuy]

Joe Mauer never played College QB so no one knows how that would have worked out

You can't be serious.

[bankonit]

Sorry, I admit the oversight. Joe Mauer was a fantastic high school recruit and is a great MLB hitter. I really like the guy and am glad he is a Twin.

To the guy who said "am I joking" Joe Mauer never played college football and chances are he would have been good but I am not going to pretend he was a can't miss. Stuff happens and maybe he would have been injured, maybe he would have gotten beat out by someone else, It is FSU and they were a powerhouse. So yes, no one knows how his college football career would have played out.

Is the NFL not the goal? Also Eric Crouch was terrible, when you are a QB and you get drafted as a WR you are a terrible QB, otherwise they would give you a shot at QB and move you later. Troy Smith could not pass worth crap and was a terrible QB, he could run and hand off the football and his teams D could win games for him.

Trent Dilfer sucks balls and he won a super bowl, does that make him a good QB?

I guess when you want to be really technical the term recruits refers to high school. But when you recruit a kid from high school you hope he has what it takes to get to the NFL and the kid hopes he has what it takes to get to the NFL. These kids are not hoping to play college football, they play college football hoping to make cash in the NFL. When they do not reach the NFL they have failed. You can pat them on the back and say "you had a great four years" but the bottom line is they did not have what it takes.

The above is a terrible response. I don't know the exact percentage, but isn't it something like 10% of D1 football players ever get drafted and even less make a regular season roster? For Bankonit, that means over 90% of college football player's entire college career is already a failure before they even play one game.

[gopherdudepart2]

But that kid can play. If you watched him in the State playoffs or in the Prep Bowl you will know what I am talking about. Jayme Mota QB for New London Spicer that knocked off GSL in the Prep bowl. That kid is a talent, has a nice arm and can fling the rock. If he goes to camps he will impress enough to get some offers. Does'nt have ideal height but he has enough football instincts and savy to overcome that. Hopefully he goes to the camps this summer as he will get noticed if he does.

[MNBadgerGuy]

bankonit you have to be the most over the top ridiculous poster I have ever encountered. I honestly am dumbfounded at the things that you say with 100% seriousness. Weinke won a Heisman Trophy, Walsh won a National Title, and Mauer was the number 1 overall recruit in the COUNTRY and the missing piece to an FSU team that was loaded but had no QB. Wow, you never cease to amaze me. Too bad Rivals wasn't around during Weinke, Walsh and Mauers days. You would definitely have been all over them if that was the case.

He's a good player but stick him in AAAAA football and there are plenty of better quarterbacks/prospects.

Please tell me where I said I don't like Joe Mauer? I said he never played college football, which is true, he chose baseball and it has worked out very nicely for him. As for Weiner and Walsh, how did their skills transfer over to the next level again? If they were truly good did they lose their skills somehow when they got to the NFL? OR maybe there were other factors involved in over inflating their stats and worth? Like the teams they were on and the systems they played in helped make them look better than they actually were. Gino Toretta looked fantastic because he was playing for the Huricanes and when he got to the NFL you saw that he sucked, he looked good because of Miami players. Nothing changed about Chris Weinke between graduating from Florida State and playing in the NFL, He was simply exposed for who he was and that was a not very good QB.

So let me get this straight, Walsh and Weinke were only good because of the players around them. So when these teams were competing for national championships they were able to recruit great players at every other position but each ended up with a hack playing QB because they just couldn't recruit good athletes at that position, sounds logical.

[WAGopher]

ok. So tell me why they were for some strange reason not good in the NFL?

There are many reasons why successful college QBs have a hard time in the NFL, while average college QBs can be very good. My top 4 reasons are:

1. Speed of the NFL game: If you can't adjust to the much faster game, you're done.
2. Accuracy: NFL D's are so good that you need to be pinpoint to be good.
3. Intelligence: If you can't manage an NFL offense, you're done.
4. Maturity as in demeanor: If you can't stay above the fray, you're done.

Many college QBs can be very successful with a couple of the above, by in the NFL you need all of them.

Bankonit,

You have named four former D1 QBs in this thread. 3 won the Heisman. All four started in National Championship games.

It's obvious that after you got called out for your stupidity in saying they weren't good recruits you are arguing just for the sake of arguing. You also keep changing what the argument is about.

To be clear, the NFL is not the goal in recruiting, idiot. The goal in recruiting is to improve the program and win games. They were all great recruits. Admit it. Or don't. But stop defending your absurd claims.

You're welcome.

Lol this post is funny! i dont get why this guy is saying since these heisman qb's didnt pan out in the NFL they weren't good in college? It was the team around these Qb's. No disrespect to Weber cause im a fan and hope he does well, but he you replace him with Crouch or Weinke he is not gonna win a Heisman and not be known as a college great.

Now let this thread rest in peace; despite the Gopherhole's very own EVIL Thread-Necromancer extraordinaire [ominous music emanates from unseen sources] <STRIKE>Lakes</STRIKE>PuddlesBison's vile sorcery aimed at reviving any thread he google's up that has to do with what ever random thought he has that shows his beloved Bovidae in what he thinks is a favorable light and/or displays his perception of Brewster's inadequacies in out state recruiting.

Seriously, Lakes. Dude. I used to kinda like the Bison before you went all nuts. Your favorite team beat a neighboring team from the next level up (and BCS AQ'd no less; which admittedly is hard to type without a little sigh). I get that this event, further fueled by some Small Town/Big City inferiority complex you've thus far exhibited, is just about the best thing that ever happened to you. I suppose it would be like us beating USC this year. I definitely know it was one of the worse losses in my decade of avid Gopher-fandom [the drubbing by Iowa and the Michigan collapse being right in this discussion], and bear no grudge for it inversely being your best win. But it has been three long years now; nearly a completed roster cycle in college ball. Surely the need to revisit this must be fading a little?

Furthermore, last Autumn I was down in Ames for the opener and up in Fargo for the Harvest Bowl (my first visit to that basketball arena you guys play in... little underwhelmed, but I do like the 'bison on the march' cheer). That squad is never going to beat the Gophers again in the shape it is in. Now, though I think we are FAR improved athletically since the atrocity that was 2007, I guess I don't deny you some reasons/delusions for optimism for our next on-the-field meeting and indeed some good natured ribbing may well be in order in the weeks before that game. I also get that you don't care for Brewster, which I don't know how that affects you as a Bison, but whatever.

However, in light of there being 15 scheduled games before the next NDSU visit and this being nominaliy a site for Gopher fans to discuss our team, no matter how poor their fortunes, allow me to posit a simple request:

FOR THE LOVE OF FVCKING GOD WOULD YOU GIVE IT A GODDAM REST ALREADY!!! AND FOR CHRIST SAKE STOP DIGGING UP THREADS THAT ARE OVER A GODDAM YEAR OLD!!!

STOP FULFILLING EVERY PRECONCEIVED NOTION THAT I MIGHT HAVE THAT WEST OF ALEXANDRIA THERE IS NOTHING BUT A SPARSE SCATTERING OF KNUCKLE-DRAGGING BIGOTED MOUTH-BREATHERS THAT CAN BARELY FIGURE OUT HOW TO USE THE INTERNET! AT LEAST BE NOT SO DAMN DIMMWITTED IN YOUR FUMBLING WITH THIS CRAZY *INTERWEBS MACHINE* AS TO KEEP POINTLESSLY DRAGGING UP ANCIENT POSTS.

If you are interested in seeing 2 very good QB's at the same time Lakeville South Plays at Eagan on Sept. 3. Parsons is the QB for Eagan and South has a Jr named Mitch Leidner that is going to be very good. Leidner has performed very well this summer and at the 7 vs 7 passing Tournament at the U the Gopher coaches followed the South team around and watched every game and talked to Leidner for over an hour. The South team just recently finished 3rd in the nation in 7 vs 7 passing league tournament in Orlando. They were the only school team there while the other teams were all star teams from cities such as national champion miami. South actually defeated Miami in pool play but then lost to them in the bracket competition.

South's QB will be real interesting. All the potential in the world, but no varsity action yet. Larry T says he has a great team every year. This year he might. That QB is great in 7 on 7, it will be interesting to see what he does when he is facing pass rush.
