per Packpride.com.... Was a strong 3 star recruit, now is 2 star....

Proving again how retarded this system really is

It's probably accurate, though, noting Amato's ability to spot QB talent.

11/1/2006 1:37:57 AM

wait, i just saw that he is also considering baseball. This is probably the reason

didn't read the link but.....

would he be a viable option as a two star athlete here?

^I don't know. We also have Harrison Beck (transfer from Nebraska) who was a 4 star recruit out of high school.

Here's Wilson's bio:

Quote :

"Wilson burst on the scene this spring at the Louisville Scout.com combine where he impressed all onlookers, including Scout.com traveling coach Tim Glanton, with his abilities. Measuring in at 5-11.5 and 185-pounds, Wilson ripped off a 4.69 40-yard dash and displayed great footwork and one of the strongest arms of all the quarterbacks in attendance. "That kid from Virginia can play the game," Glanton said of Wilson. "All, I can say is wow." A prolific passer on the prep level, Wilson led Collegiate to the Virginia AAA state title while posting an 11-0 record that included two wins over prep power Fork Union Military Academy. Wilson passed for 3,300 yards and 40 touchdowns while rushing for another 634 yards as 15 scores as he earned all-state, all-region, and all-district honors while being named the 2005 Richmond Times-Dispatch Player of the Year. He is also a star on the baseball diamond. The starting shortstop for Collegiate, Wilson batted .467 with three home runs and is considered a potential college baseball prospect. He plans to play both sports on the next level, but his scholarship will be for football. 7/23/2006: Wilson has verbally committed to NC State. "

My cousin lives in richmond and is friends with russell wilson...he says that russell is one of the best athlete's he's ever seen and should do very well...i hear he's having a hell of a year too..

11/1/2006 1:52:17 AM

maybe he could fit in at another position then?

11/1/2006 1:55:17 AM

more reason to play burke

11/1/2006 2:11:22 AM

^it'll be beck, not burke.

11/1/2006 10:18:28 AM

Russell Wilson RULES!























































































the shitter

Of course they dropped his rating. I mean, he committed to NC State.

11/1/2006 11:23:52 AM

this is official bullshit just like Justin Burke dropping from 4-3 stars during his senior campaign where he threw for 3900 yards with 62 touchdowns.

11/1/2006 12:20:02 PM

^dude threw for 62 touchdowns in one year? I find that kinda hard to believe. I mean, if he did, that's just fucking nuts.

Yep...I'd link the article but its premie over there I think. I was telling my dad about him cause he asked why we sucked at qb a few weeks ago...and he said "there's no way he threw for that many yards and touchdowns in one season...that has to be for his career. "


well then i found his career stats where he threw for 8500 yards...idk the td number.
