Kellen Moore and Case Keenum: A Tale of Two Quarterbacks
Andrew Luck, Russell Wilson and RG3 have gotten all the hype this year but there are a couple of pretty good QBs playing that aren't in the major conferences.

Fun article.
I like that he interviewed several different CFB writers, even if some of them appeared to misunderstand their questions.
My favorite quote:
But if you know me and you’ve read my work, you know that I don’t like judging things like this based on stats. So instead I’ll ask you this: if Kellen Moore were to get the ball with two minutes to go, three timeouts and trailing by a touchdown, would you ever, in a million years bet against him (regardless of the opponent)? The answer is no, unless you’re certifiably insane.

Another awesome quote from the same writer (Aaron Torres).
Simply put, over the rest of our lives, we’re going to see a lot of great quarterbacks, guys that are 6’5, some with big arms, and maybe others who run 4.4 40’s. But we’ll never, ever see another quarterback quite like Kellen Moore. He is absolutely one of a kind.
I sense a man-crush.

I don't get
The whole ‘arm strength’ argument on Kellen.. If anybody watched the Nevada game last year, as well as numerous past passes.. he can get the ball down field just fine.. I have even seen him zip some passes in.. he does put a lot of touch on his passes.. to get them over the defenders.. there was another QB in the NFL that didn’t have a lot of arm strength (though I thought his was just fine).. but was very smart.. his name was Joe Montana.. worked out just fine with him..

Joe Montana? Never heard of him.

"Idaho's not really in the Midwest."...
"Oh...so you like potatoes?"

Article stated Moore was a four star prospect
Someone remind me…was he even a three star prospect? I know it wasn’t four.

IIRC
He was a low to mid 3 star at best… could ne wrong but I know he wasn’t a 4 star.
