Is the young Favre the next Flutie?

[Tony Oday]

Seems like he isnt getting the looks from the next level because of his size eventhough he dominated HS Ball. I mean good lord he threw 42 TDs in HS! Is there a real diference in 5'10" and 6'1"? I mean will three inches really mean the difference in how he sees the field?

Yes. It will. If he has other tools, he can overcome it. If not, he'll be another high school hero.

I never played QB but damn I know our line was on average 6'3" and big boys so a 6'1" guy is still to short :)

I'm not disagreeing with you, but in a business that divides haves and have-nots by hundredths of a second or one or two reps or 1/8 of an inch on a jump, he's got to have something that's going to make him stand out from all the other "undersized" guys other than his name. I haven't followed him closely enough to know if he has other assets, but size in one of the easiest things for scouts and "experts" to look at and sort guys by.

Same reason only D3 schools wanted me... 5'11" ... Over 70% with 28 TDs my senior year. Thought about following dad to UW-W but went to UC-Irvine (baseball) instead.

That didn't work out either. :lol:

lol I was never that good at football...could return kicks and punts but 5'9" in HS at WR does not endear scouts! :) Hell I grew after college too son of a!

I graduated high school 6'4" 255....2 weeks into football camp at D-2 Winona State, coach tells me I am too small, and unless I get serious and get my weight to around 285/290, I won't be able to hold myself against the big boys. So I got to 295...and then I got injured, a lot, so that dream ended.

I thought you guys pretty much had this figured out. Then again we all have our preferences, but it depends on how big of a throwing lane you need...

Damn - going to school near/in WI must be great. I had to take out extra student loans to pay for my beer in college! Which I am sadly still paying off a decade later - TOTALLY worth it!

Best part of Winona on the beer part was just because you forgot to buy beer on Saturday you could just go to the Spur Station across the river for football beers :) LOVED IT!

HAHAHA...LOVED that spur station. Or the Liquor Store over there that sold liquor not sold in Minnesota. Or the fact MN bars closed at 1pm, and WI closed at 2, so Midway, George's, or the 4-Mile would get PACKED from 1:15-2:00.

My favorite night ever at Chuckers...Packers vs. Vikings Monday night...Antonio Freeman catch. $5-3 Gallon Beer Bottle, $3 refill (I bought 4, all for me). Every TD Packer fans got a green shot, viking fans got a purple shot. Our Viking fan roommate got left at the bar when Freeman caught that pass...and it was POURING out. We peeing of my apartment balcony, while on the phone with my mom...it was awesome.

He'll go to a smaller time college at first. IF he impresses there in his first season, I could see a transfer to a bigger college to try and get his name in draft talks within the new few years.
