I'm just going to chime in as an old and say that I appreciate Maalik using a twitter handle I can understand that also brings the sweet sounds of Sade to my brain each time I see it. 

Also nice to see him making all kinds of throws in the 7v7 games.

Lol he knows better than that. Just stirring the pot and grumpy that UT took UCLA's QB1 off their board.

He's not the only one who's grumpy.

Would rep again for Sade reference.

One completion on his first possession, his receivers do not look good.

A little Sade, a little 16 Candles, a little Chablis.  It was on.

Side 1 of Led Zeppelin IV

Just threw a deep ball, was picked off. The throw looked good but probably a step underthrown.

Maalik with his first TD
I turned it off when he threw the pick. How the hell did he get the ball back and score a TD that fast? Lol

That first TD pass was a sweet throw.  Also, #77 is my new favorite player. He's already better than Terrell Cuney just by virtue of being ~2.5 meters wide.

Is the chaminade game there or at juniper serra?

All Serra's games are road games this year.

Box score for the game against LB Poly: https://stats.digitalscout.com/football/boys/game/13332440

Should be noted that the second interception came on an overtime 4th and 17 where he had no choice but to throw it up. He could have had a couple other passes picked, though.



This was his first ever start at QB, right?

Yes, he has only played handball and cricket up to this point.

Dude has a rocket bowling arm, though.

Some of you guys are trying a little too hard to be impartial. He acquitted himself well. For the competition, he performed like a high 4 star project should in his first game. He’s not Ewers and may never be in college. But there was a lot of good to takeaway from the game. Footwork and pocket presence wasn’t much different from his 7 on 7 performances. He just had people constantly coming at him now. Arm is still the major plus. So almost zero difference from what we knew a week ago. 
 

My only criticism is that a grown man of my age watching a stream of a HS football game on an Instagram account on a Friday night. 

Well if the stat line is any indication of talent, Serra is going to have to rely entirely on Maalik. Awful run stats. Is the OL good at pass pro but terrible at creating gaps? Or is Maalik scrambling all the time?

That OL is equally terrible at everything.

What a time to be alive

I think it's fair to say the earliest Murphy will see the field at UT is as a RS Sophomore.

High four star guys should dominate. He was adequate. Honestly there’s rarely ever projects this raw that are high 4* guys, but rarely do JRs have ++ NFL arms. Milroe is a raw project and he was miles ahead of where Murphy is at the same stage. 

He performed like a guy who has barely played the position. I don’t really know who to equate him to at this point because his NFL potential is clear but it also would be no surprise if he never played a down here.

It was very different.
He never did the same thing twice, even when he got better and hit his stride in the 2nd half he had no consistency in any part of his mechanics. His decision making improved, which to me was best thing to see in the game. He looks brand new (because he is) and if he carries over the decision making improvements each outing his performance will improve tremendously and as far as Texas is concerned that’s the most important part of his evolution because his mechanics are going to have to be changed and addressed from the top down and better that comes from Sark/Milwee/Milwee’s replacement. He’s a moldable piece of clay with a lightning bolt for an arm. Everything else is going to have to be taught.

This would be more than fair, he's a Junior and only now starting in High School.  So getting a chance to start his Sophomore year at UT would be a real improvement and a surprise.

Just watched the highlights, most Texas 2A schools would pants both these teams.

Beyond that Poly players were doing the horns down before and during the game, hope little Lincoln recruits and signs the entire team.

This is just flat out wrong. His footwork and arm motion were noticeably worse and he did not perform like a high 4 star even when factoring in his terrible OL. 
 

He definitely got more comfortable in the second half and started making plays.  The potential is there, and I expect to see him keep improving, but he has a longer way to go than hoped based off his camp and work put in since he played last in 2019.

Long Beach Polytechnic is a sports powerhouse, although I agree that their team in these highlights looks awful. I once shot a commercial there and was highly impressed with the trophy case. As a footnote, it's also the HS of both Snoop Dog and Cameron Diaz, as well as a few other stars.

Hearing this makes me question the overall competition level in the entire state.

It’s California. Doesn’t everyone get a trophy?
