With Quick out...... where does this leave us?

 

:confused::confused::confused:

Same place it left us in August.

Anyone who has ever seen Mr. Quick play knows he is the choice. Missing the last 2 (or 3) games should not be an issue. At all.

I think Quick wins it. After seeing Timmons in person I can say that Timmons is right there with him and can play high level D1.

I agree. I noticed they have Quick listed as #3 WR in the Nation....... :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: Quick deserves it hands down I was just curious.

Let us not forget that Quick is the all-time leading receiver in the state of Kentucky despite not playing varsity until 2/3 of the way through his freshman year and missing the last 2 or 3 games of his senior year, and with T playing only 9 regular season games each of the last 2 years. In essence, he set the record in more like 3 years of varsity games (against the very best teams in 4 states!)

I never had the pleasure of seeing Quick play in person. Something I wish i had the opportunity to do.

Did you ever see any of Randy Moss's highlights when he was in his prime? That is who Quick reminds me of. I saw him nearly catch a ball that was 11 feet of the ground!

A few things about Mr. Quick that are perhaps underappreciated:

1. He is not afraid to catch balls going across the middle of the field.

2. He has a 6th sense about when to reverse fields, backpedal 25 yards, and net a big gain vs. when to go north for a few extra yards.

3. He is an excellent downfield blocker.

4. He goes 100% even when being used as a decoy.

5. He doesn't thump his chest or say the wrong thing in interviews.

Quick will probably win this and deservedly so but I will tell you that Timmons is not far behind if at all. I've seen both play and both are deserving. Either can take it to the house in 1 play.

Will this be a case where one wins Mr. Football and the other wins Gatorade POY?

Varies on different sites. But that is quite a feat that at least 1 recruitng service thinks you're the 3rd best receiver in the country.

Don't most? How many years did the previous recordholder play?

 

Regardless, Quick is the winner and it probably will not be close whenever they announce it.

Montrell Jones at Male, 4 full years starting on the varsity team, making it to the state final game in 2 of those years and playing (I am 99% sure) a full 10 game regular season each year.

So to compare: Quick = 45 varsity games, Jones = approx. 56 games (depending on any games he may have been injured for, and guessing Male got bounced in round 3 in years when they didn't make the finals.) This does not even take into account that Male was not facing Brentwood, Cathedral, Cincy X, Moeller, MBA, and Elder. I'm no expert, but I think it is relatively difficult to put up numbers against those defenses.

 

A pretty big accomplishment for Mr. Quick.

I agree that Timmons is a great player. But the one player I was most impressed with at Franklin County, now bear with me I have only seen them the 1 game against Cooper, but Maupin I thought had by far the best hands on that receiving corps. even over Timmons. Timmons strentgh comes from his speed and quickness and the ability to change directions on a dime. Maupin however really impressed me with his hands. I think that kid could catch just about anything thrown to him.
