Here we take a look at the QB position and the top underclassmen in the northwest. The State’s of Oregon and Washington are represented, and we are excited to see the ridiculous amount of talent within region. As one of the top QB coaches in the country Taylor Barton was recently asked by the Seattle Times to come up with our top Quarterbacks (underclassmen). This was posted in Friday’s addition of the paper which we will attach. We added Oregon’s top kids as well, and we look forward to seeing most of these athletes in the off season during our Elite training sessions. Congratulations to all of these talented young QB’s.
Have a look at some video from one of our elite training sessions this past season, where some of the nation’s top QB’s got work with TB. This off season will be like none we have ever seen before.
QBs in attendance.
