Title: Who the hell is Daniel Sams?
Post by: kougar24 on March 08, 2010, 11:36:06 AM
Seriously.

But, the good news is that he was dismissed from his HS team for some "undisclosed violation." MCMW?!

Quote
Daniel Sams is the quicksilver runner-passer who starts for the Spartans. Last season teams tried to make him stay in the pocket and pass. That no longer works,  for the junior has worked hard on his passing skills and is a more than adequate passer as well as a tremendous runner.

Sams,  6 feet 2,  190 pounds,  has completed 22 of 32 passes for 268 yards and a touchdown and has thrown an interception. He has rushed for 113 yards on 28 carries for two more scores,  and it is the unique,  spectacular way he gains that yardage that is key. He also might be the best receiver on the team with a 32-yard reception in heavy coverage to his credit.

"You just can't tackle him, " said Slidell Coach Artie Liuzza,  "or at least we couldn't." He has speed and a slipperyness that few have. Just when you think you have him,  he's gone.

Hey Weird Robert's Foam Finger!  "Warm up the tell us how good this guy is machine!"

Haven't talked to the kid or been out to see him play, but have heard about what you found in that article -- dude is a decent athlete and can skunk talentless hacks.  He is NOT on any top 25 lists, and was not in the summer either, meaning his dismissal isn't really a huge factor in his lack of ranking and he is a middling talent in the state.  Don't get me wrong, middling talent here is about as good as middling in Florida imho (it just doesn't get the hype), but I'm not going to expect a whole lot out of this dude until he gets a professional eval.  Best guess?  Give him 3 years of working hard and he'll cover kicks as well as Lamark and work his way up to No. 4 on the depth chart.

(Can't wait until he become Michael Bishop and this post is immortalized.)

Looks like a decent prospect.  The way he holds the ball as a quarterback shows that he probably has pretty big hands so if he can catch the ball he may be a pretty good receiver.

That will be $9.95

At game noticed Michael sitting and talking to one player for a long period of time.  At the time wondered "who is that kid?"  

i think i found my answer.

p.s. briefly spoke with Burns seems nice and doesn't smell bad.

also Rahne was more involved in the game than any other coach seemed very  :curse: and booed on a number of occaisons seems like he had his angry on
