More likely, he meant that as he moves from North Cobb HS to Auburn, he will still be representing orange and blue - North Cobb's school colors are very similar to Auburn's (on an unrelated note, I think that South Cobb's mascot is the "War Eagles")
(Doubt he would change high schools - isn't his father the head football coach at North Cobb?)
Having Queen on board represents a commitment to more of a Tulsa based HUNH/ Chris Todd led style of offense which to me was much more enjoyable to watch. We can appear to sling it around more and still rack up the ground yards without the read option...or displacing a firm signee with a dual threat QB that already thinks he rules the football universe. I'm hoping TQ takes a spot behind JJ who could only do one season and White who by all accounts is extremely accurate.
Jason Smith is a dual threat signee. There's that and should we succumb to the evils of the dreaded "Wildcat" we can run him in there for a few plays. Otherwise I'm for careful selection of the dual threat kids from the pool of potential transfers-those that get lost on the rosters of the high profile schools, not high school kids that get frustrated before they go through their first Spring.
Ohio State is the exception. Urban Meyer seems to be quite the evaluator of talent.
*See Florida. Identifying the next Cam Newton is a tricky business.
tOSU isn't representive of what the QB depth charts of the top programs look like.
