Yea I also watched Mariota last night and with his speed, running ability and tall, long-limbed physique my immediate impression was Samoan Vince Young.
But the passing samples were just too limited to make an informed judgement of his passing abilities, though what we saw did point towards a strong arm.
But I wish he would come out, for more than any reason to enhance the value of our 1st overall.
There does seem to be more talk in the sports media this year about the upside of these players staying in college longer, especially the QBs. I too say BS,
a kid would be best advised to strike when the iron is hot.
