USC Transfer QB Jake Jensen Commits

Peace man, I completely agree. But there are still a few teams running the pro style like UCD and ISU did this year. Vigan recruited his own son and he's not really the duel threat type.
Oh for sure, but in the end, Davis didn’t cut it, and is Vigan really going to play at MSU, or just “for dad” then transfer to Carroll? I haven’t seen him play. MSU offense is absolutely duel threat heavy, obviously so can’t imagine he really had a shot. Who knows. He won’t follow dad to Wazzu…so maybe the next coach will run pro style.
 
QB wins are not a stat.

His HS stats look remarkably normal. He averaged ~2500 yards, 20 TD's and 10 INT's each of his sophomore, junior, and senior year with a 56% completion percentage. Hardly what I would call video game numbers.
7400 yards and 61 TDs as a 3 year starter. Those are video game numbers. Find me a MT QB with those stats

Grant Vigen who is supposed to be the top dog QB in MT had 3511 yards and 46 TDs in 2 seasons as a starter for comparison.

I’m not sure why a MT QB is the goalpost here, kind of an odd benchmark considering the QB play is generally pretty weak. And you didn’t even use the top QB in the state…(that would be Jackson Presley).

Anyways, video game numbers usually means far out of the ordinary. Somebody like Jake Browning in HS. He threw for 90+ TD’s his senior year.

I’m not knocking Jensen. They’re just standard D1 QB HS stats v

So would you say Vigen's HS stats are substandard, then?

I’d say for a Montana QB, they’re about average.

For what it’s worth, I’d be surprised if Vigen ever plays meaningful snaps at QB at the FCS level. He’s getting recruited because he’s a big body with a live arm that can move just well enough. Essentially, recruited because of his tools, his potential. As of right now, even if he’s a top MT QB, he’s not really a D1 QB prospect in my opinion. Also, stats are fun and all, but I wouldn’t base my opinions on a prospect off of them. There’s a lot of players with great stats that were mediocre prospects, and a lot of players with average stats that became great players. System and development make a huge difference.
