Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Holy Toledo! Talk about a lot of smoke...there might be some fire there! When the biggies at 247Sports such as Wilfong, Prehm and Wade all give positive updates of this 2022 QB's visit with his parents within a few minutes of each other? Now the Oregon Rivals AJ Jacobson too? Was there a silent verbal from Rivals 4-Star Alabama QB Tanner Bailey to the Oregon coaches during his recent visit? When that many recruiting tongues are wagging...you gotta wonder. Look at this offer list right here, (24 already!) which includes Michigan, Auburn, LSU, Georgia and Alabama? 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His dad was a QB at Auburn back in the 80's. He's been tutoring Tanner since he could walk, and it shows. I have looked at a lot of the QB's in this recruiting cycle and none them have the polish that this kid has. His mechanics aren't perfect, but they're close. This kid is really good. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You call it the way you see it, and that doesn't always jive with the recruiting services and the offers the coaches give. I was wondering what your thoughts were and THANKS. 2 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's interesting that Alabama accepted a commitment from Ty Simpson and Tanner Bailey is in their backyard. Both play at very small schools (+/- 600 kids enrollment), but that's where the similarities end. Simpson is an "athlete" playing sandlot QB while Tanner Bailey's mechanics are advanced enough that he's ready to compete at the D1 level right now.

I was very disappointed with the potential QBs the Ducks were getting connected to this cycle. After I saw that Bailey came out to Eugene for a dead period visit with his family on their own dime I checked out his highlights. If Bailey is the QB for the 2022 class I will be very pleased. He doesn’t have ideal size and he’s not a dual threat guy, but he has some major arm talent and QB skills. Bailey can make every throw, to not confuse arm talent with just arm strength - I mean he can put just the right touch and placement on the ball. Sounds like he got left out by the in-state schools and the Ducks might have caught a break. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed it the first couple of views, but he looks off the safety and comes back to the Post for a TD on the first highlight. It happens so fast that I wasn't ready for it, but that is some advanced QB stuff right there. I can overlook the fact that he's 2 or 3 inches shorter than ideal height. The rest of the package is in the 9-to-10 range. I like this kid a lot. Big upside. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
