Any college coach that sees film on the Mentor win vs Ignatius early in last season would have to offer.....the guy has a gun and showed it on a wide variety of routes; right on the money all night for about 400 yards against a tough state champ defense... also showed RB type speed on his runs. Best I've seen in a long time.
I think that Mitch Trubisky would be a great fit at OSU. A couple of athlete/QBs from Ohio are being recruited by OSU -- Malik Zaire and Jalin Marshall. Both are smaller (6' and 6"1") and have more major college offers. Zaire was also offered a scholarship and Marshall already committed to OSU. I still think Mitch should commit early to OSU. There are always going to be top prospects at your position. Look at Ricky Stanzi at Iowa -- he was 3rd on the depth chart with a QB his grade from Glenville ahead of him. Stanzi ended up starting three years -- I see the same with Mitch. Besides, Mitch's stats were off the charts this year and he received all the post season awards. I don't understand why Zaire and Marshall are receiving so many more college offers -- maybe they think they are the "sexy" choice because they are "athletes" with stats no where near Mitch's. Mitch has speed and can make all the passes. He is also close to a straight-A student.
They are getting all the offers because coaches see them being both as better Qb;s with a "it" factor.. Trubuski is a system guy. Who cant make much out of nothing, where the other two players can. If the Zaire kid and the marshall kid played in the mentor system they who have many more yards than mitch.
^Wow you are an idiot. Saban and Meyer don't offer players that can't cut it. These are 2 of the best coaches and programs in college football. Go stroke your player in your own threads. Nobody needs your ignorance on Trubisky to pollute this thread.

I have seen Trubisky play 4 times last year, twice in person and twice on tv. I also saw him play as a soph once. He definitely does not have mobility issues. He also looked very powerful when he runs. As far as funky delivery on passing, I did not see that at all. When he rolled left and threw, he did deliver side arm, but to hit the open receiver it was needed. I saw Zaire once on tv, and did not get a sense of him one way or the other. The Alter offense was a under center option attack. The few passes he did throw were pre-determined, as he did not have to make a read. So as of right now, Trubisky is far ahead in development for a college passing attack. Can Zaire develop and be better than Trubisky? Absolutely. But the clear advantage right now is Trubisky.
Plus to show how clueless the guy is, he keeps talking about Jalin Marshall as a QB in college. Marshall was recruited as an athlete. He is going to play WR at OSU and be Urban Meyer's new Percy Harvin.

Hmmmm dont know what film you watched of the ZAire kid go watch his highlight video of this past season then you will see the touch he has on the ball as well as his ability to state in pocket until he finds the receiver. His pocket presence is far better than trubisky. Which will make him a better Qb i the long run..his running ability is a plus because he indeed can run it effectively when needed which is a plus for a Qb these days...As for Jalin yes he is an athelete but he is going to get an oportunity to audition for the position of Qb.
No he isn't going to compete for QB. He is a WR for Urban Meyer. You need to do some research.
You can stroke your QB in every thread but it is time for you to go elsewhere. Pretty sad commentary when people like you are on here putting down another QB to try to boost the credibility of your player. I can understand rivalries and putting down teams from time to time. I can't understand how people like you stoop so low to try to bash a high school player you probably have never even seen play.
I will take Urban Meyer and Nick Saban over some idiot on a HS message board any day of the week .
This is the official Mentor thread. We don't need people like you trolling in it

Trubisky can play in ANY system. He has broken several runs 50+ yards for touchdowns. He can do it all. Ohio D-I Player of the Year as a junior -- nough said!

Did Trubisky dramatically improve from his sophomore year to his junior year? Absolutely. Is he the best QB in Ohio? Absolutely. Is he going to be even better next year? Absolutely. You can't argue with Saban and Meyer, the two top coaches in college football. Until Mitch commits, the offers will keep pouring in.

You obviously have not been doing your homework -- the recruiting websites said the Zaire was not happy that OSU had offered Trubisky a scholarship -- and with good reason. Trubisky is better and Zaire is looking to sign elsewhere. Nice try.
Definitely the best QB college prospect we have had. Feels pretty good to have him and Tanski in a span of 8 years from 2005 through 2012.
MG2002,
Maybe Mentor has another potential star QB Prospect in Caleb Potter if he goes out for football.
Heard the other day Potter was throwing with Mitch and out threw him by 20 years. Potter threw a football over 70 yards on the football field. I have heard he out runs Mitch too. Potter could sit behind Mitch and learn for a year and possibly be the starting QB his senior year.
Potter did go to the Jim Kelly Football Camp almost 2 years ago and was MVP of the camp.
6'3 215 and throws around 90 MPH with a baseball and runs 6.8 60 yard dash. Sounds like the tools a coach would love to mold as he has a star already in place to learn from.
I am fine with that if he does it. He is a great athlete. I am all for our guys playing multiple sports. But I swore you were inferring that he would give up basketball to focus on baseball. I would think if he did that, he wouldn't be turning to the more physical football.

Yes I did. He has alot to think about. I know he would like to do everything, but that is up to him. Baseball is putting pressure on him where he feels he wouldn't be around in the Summer. If he makes the USA National team in June and accepts a roster spot, football would be out for sure. He gets letters, calls, etc; from top travel teams like the Midland Redskins who get the best high school kids from around the country.
He is a great kid who doesn't like to disappoint anyone. I know he took the loss to Harding yesterday pretty hard and he is only a sophomore. I wish I had a whole team with his type of drive, determination and values.
As for the football...he could be special if it happened.
Like I have said before, it will be what it will be. He is a good kid and a great athlete. Whatever he plays in he will excel at and it is up to him to pick his sports. I just sit on my butt cheering on the Mentor jersey

I don't know how someone can out throw someone "by 20 years". But anyway, Trubisky is light years better than Potter will ever be as a QB. Potter is a great athlete, but throwing far does not make you a QB. Cade McClure is waiting in the wings, but who knows, Potter may be the Ryan Tannehill of high school. Either way, Coach Trivisonno would probably find a place for him.

Naw he isnt better in no sense of the word from what i heard the Zaire kid isnt angry that the ohio state urban stuff he says that he is looking at all his 15 offers at this time to see where it best fits him. Jalin and Zaire is far better Qb's than mitch trust and believe that.
Again stop trolling the thread. You probably have never seen Trubisky play so we really don't care about your opinions on who is better. This is the Mentor thread. Get a life and stop trashing a 17 year old kid you know nothing about.

Not trolling anything i have watch his games all of them and i am not trashing anybody..just saying that he isnt better than the two other kids. As for my life its great how about yours?
How many schools have offered Trubisky so far? I would think that Mitch will have dozens of options, whether at Ohio State or some other school with the perfect system to develop and exploit his talent. I could see him at Stanford, Notre Dame or (dare I say?) Florida State.
^Wow you are an idiot. Saban and Meyer don't offer players that can't cut it. These are 2 of the best coaches and programs in college football. Go stroke your player in your own threads. Nobody needs your ignorance on Trubisky to pollute this thread.
Wow! Making friends as usual. Those coaches forgot more then I'll ever know. However, in my opinion, if Trubisky QB's the buckeyes in the future Meyer's stay will be short lived.

Trubisky will likely be surronded by one or two other talented QB's courtesy of Meyer's recruiting. So if Trubisky ends up becoming the OSU starter, it will be because he has shown the promise to compete at a high level. I don't know that Trubisky is a lock to be a standout QB at the next level, but I certainly see some glimpses of greatness mixed in with some of my own personal doubts.
If I was in his shoes, I'd go to Bama. Nothing like being a football god in the South! Plus, Bama's strong running game and great defenses have made their last few QB's look pretty good without heaping a ton of pressure on the QB to produce huge numbers. Also, he would be facing the best possible competition on a weekly basis (sorry Urban, but you it's true).
Obviosuly, he will make his own decision based on his own life. I can really see him doing better at Bama than I can see him doing at OSU, though.

I wish I could understand your sense of the word -- your grammar needs work! Also, Zaire not being happy was reported on a recruiting website -- look it up!

Yeah I am sure a guy with a favorite school of Kettering Alter has seen all of the Mentor games.

So far Ohio State, Alabama, Toledo, and Cincy have offered. I would expect West Virginia and Michigan State in short order as he has made multiple visits there. I have heard things about Wisconsin too. Kid is smart as well so I would not be surprised if a Stanford or Notre Dame offered.
