The QB Class of 2003 (2006 Season: The College Years)

[WussGawd]

Yes, the latest installment of the Five Great Quarterbacks dynasty starts today.

For those of you late to the party, the previous seasons of our dynasty can be found here:

Five Great Quarterbacks, The Recruiting Season.
Five Great Quarterbacks, the 2004 Season

[WussGawd]

Time to reacquaint ourselves with our intrepid band of former stud high school quarterbacks.

As you know, Five Great Quarterbacks traces the story of five young men, the top 5 high school quarterbacks as rated by national agencies. Three seasons ago, we witnessed their senior year of high school, and their entry into the recruiting wars. Two years ago, we watched as they spent their first year in college. Last year, we watched as most of our players got their first starting roles. To reacquaint ourselves, here are our five young men:


Joel McDonald

Joel was the #1 Rated QB prospect in the nation last year out of Glynn Academy in Brunswick, GA. An All-State Selection at QB, Joel was recruited heavily before committing to eventual National Champions Florida State.

In 2004, Joel, as the third of only three quarterbacks on the Florida State roster, saw a year of his eligibility wasted to throw 9 passes in garbage time against a directional school.

In 2005, Joel took over as the starter, winning Second Team All-ACC honors, and leading Florida State to a third consecutive ACC Title.

Byron Huntley

Byron was the #2 QB prospect in the nation last year from Green Valley HS in Henderson, NV, where he was an all-state selection. Byron was heavily recruited from across the country, but chose to stay close to home as a UCLA Bruin.

Byron was redshirted for the 2004 season, and now enters this season as a redshirt freshman.

In 2005, Byron beat out a couple of more experienced competitors to win the starting job and paced the Bruins to a third place finish in the Pac 10.

Willie Jennings

Wille was considered the #3 QB prospect in the country last year from Owosso, Michigan. An All-State selection from Owosso HS in Owosso, Michigan, Byron was heavily recruited, narrowly deciding to forego offers from Michigan and Ohio State, among others to become a Clemson Tiger.

Like Byron, Willie redshirted for the 2004 campaign, and is now a redshirt freshman.

In 2005, Willie had a breakout year as a starter, winning First Team All ACC honors, and quickly establishing himself as the team leader.

Norbert Clark

Norbert was considered the #4 QB prosect in the country last year. An All-State selection at QB from Savanna HS in Savanna, OK, Norbert made it clear early on that his heart lay in Oklahoma, and quickly committed to the Sooners.

Norbert also redshirted in 2004.

In 2005, Norbert saw limited duty in a third string role on a Sooner team that was loaded with talent at the QB spot.

Emmanuel Harris

Although he was considered the #5 QB prospect nationally, Emmanuel was a Parade All-American at QB, as well as an All-State Selection from New York. Emmanuel took a while to make his decision before settling on the Michigan Wolverines.

Emmanuel redshirted for the 2004 season.

In 2005, Emmanuel has been the disappointment of our five guys, yet to see game action. Academically, however, he's been a star, garnering a 4.0 GPA over his first two years in college.

2006 NCAA Training Camp

As a good way to start the year, here are the prospects for our five young men as they begin their second campaign of college football.


Willie Jennings, Clemson

Only injury, or ridiculously one-sided games will prevent the ACC's best quarterback from taking every snap this season.


Joel McDonald, Florida State

Joel added a few more pounds, and now stands 6'3", weighing 231 lbs.

Like Willie, Joel is solidly entrenched as the starter for the Seminoles.

Emmanuel Harris, Michigan

Emmanuel put on a few more pounds of muscle in the offseason, and now carries 232 lbs. on his 6'1" frame.

With a veteran QB as starter in Joel McIntyre, Emmanuel will fight for the backup role this year alongside a pair of other similarly talented quarterbacks.

Norbert Clark, Oklahoma

Norbert bulked up from 6'2" 209 lbs. to 6'2" 212 lbs.

With Oklahoma's #1 QB from last season graduated, Norbert will fight for the starting role with last year's #2 QB, Reuben Delgado.

Byron Huntley, UCLA

Byron bulked up to 218 lbs on his 6'2" frame. He is now solidly entrenched as the starter.

Can't wait to see what happens this season.

Hey guys...I kind of got derailed last week by the board upgrade...I'll get back to this with the long weekend.

Excerpt from Street & Smith's 2006 College Football Annual.

Dark Horses:

Willie Jennings, Clemson

Willie Jennings last year, as a redshirt freshman, has already shown himself to be the best quarterback in the ACC. But he will have to elevate his game to another level to emerge on the national stage, and he will have to do it without the legs of Cornelius Baumgardner, who now plays his football on Sundays.

The question is whether he can lift the rest of his cast well enough to win the 11 or 12 games needed to be a serious Heisman candidate. Only the new season can provide such answers.

Five Great Quarterback Sightings, Week 1

Purdue at Oklahoma (Norbert Clark)

Unfortunately, Norbert lost the starting job to last year's backup, Reuben Delgado. However, he stands a good chance of playing if Reuben falters or is injured, and is solidly entrenched as the #2 QB.

Against Purdue, the Sooners roll to a 24-0 first half lead mainly off of Delgado's throwing and an opportunistic defense. In the second half, however, a pair Delgado passes are picked off, and Purdue cuts the lead to 24-17 on the second play of the fourth quarter. However, the Sooners calmly move the ball the length of the field to halt the Purdue momentum and make it 31-17. Later in the quarter, Oklahoma takes advantage of a Purdue turnover to make it 38-17. Norbert appears late in mop up, makes a couple of handoffs and takes a couple of knees to wrap up the ball game.

He does not attempt a pass in relief duty.

Week 2 Five Great Quarterback Sightings


Clemson (Willie Jennings) at Tennessee

After holding Tennessee to a three out on the game's opening drive, the Tigers struck the first blow, blocking the Vols' punt and recovering on the 29. After a pair of runs and a couple of incompletions, Willie Jennings tossed a three yard touchdown pass to make it 7-0 Clemson. Tennessee struck back quickly, mainly through the air to tie it 7-7. For the rest of the half, both offenses struggled to get anything going, with only Clemson threatening to score (they shanked a 36 yard figgie. It remained 7-7 at the half.

Clemson took the opening possession of the second half, with Willie Jennings tossing a 56 yard pass to his favorite target Poole to set the Tigers up with a first and goal from the three. However, from there, Clemson couldn't punch it in, and wound up settling for a 19 yard field goal to make it 10-7. On the following drive, Tennessee drove deep before an errant Garner pass was picked off, killing the drive. After Clemson went three and out, Tennessee again drove it deep, this time connecting on a 31 yard field goal to tie it at 10 all.

Early in the fourth quarter, after a couple of 3 and outs, Clemson got the ball in great field position on the Tennessee 27. After a trio of running plays and a pair of incompletions, the drive stalled on the Tennessee 12, where Clemson again kicked a figgie to make it 13-10.

In response, Tennessee's QB Garner put together the longest sustained drive of the afternoon, capped off by a 1 yard TD run to make it 17-13 Tennessee. After a couple of 3 and outs, Clemson took over the ball on their own 45 with less than 2 minutes remaining. But on third down, Willie's pass was picked off and returned for a touchdown, killing any chance of a Clemson comeback, 24-13.

Willie had a rough game, completing just 9 of 21 passes for 164 yards with 1 TD pass. He was intercepted once (a 71 yarder returned for a TD) and sacked once.


Central Florida at Florida State (Joel McDonald)

The Seminoles struck quickly, putting together a sustained drive, mainly on the ground, on their opening possession. Joel got into the act with the longest gainer on an option keeper for 13 yards, before FSU's tailback Hawkins punched it in from 11 yards out to make it 7-0. On their next offensive possession, FSU again drove the length of the field, this time settling for a field goal to make it 10-0.

Central Florida struck quickly to make it 10-7 early in the second quarter. On the ensuing kickoff, however, Florida State got back the points with a 92 yard kickoff return for a touchdown to make it 17-7. FSU then capped off the first half scoring with a 57 yard field goal to make it 20-7 at the half.

After a Central Florida field goal made it 20-10 midway through the 4th quarter, FSU capped off the scoring with long runs from Hawkins and a pair of completions from Joel to make it 27-10.

Joel had a solid game offensively. He completed 13 of 18 passes for 164 yards. He threw no touchdown passes, but also did not take a sack or turn the balll over. Most impressively, he ran 8 times for 59 yards, including a 30 yard scamper.


UCLA (Byron Huntley) at Army

After a long Army drive gave the Black Knights a 7-0 lead, Byron Huntley answered with a 31 yard TD strike on the first UCLA drive to tie it at 7-7. After an Army punt, Lewis Castillo cashed in another touchdown on a drive featuring Byron's passing and Lewis' running to make it 14-7 early in the second quarter. After a couple of punts, Byron again went wild, throwing a few strikes on a drive that was again capped off by Lewis Castillo, this time with a 6 yard run to make it 21-7. After an Army pass was intercepted on the ensuiing drive, UCLA punched in another touchdown, again on the strength of a few runs by Lewis Castillo, including a 4 yard TD to make it 28-7. From there, it was simply a matter of UCLA runing wild on Army, 57-28.

Byron had a great game, completing 16 of 23 passes for 272 yards with 3 Touchdowns. He was not intercepted and was sacked only once.

Lewis Castillo upstaged him though, carrying the ball 35 times for 304 yards and catching it 5 times for 93 yards. Lewis accounted for five touchdowns, running for three and catching two.


Connecticut at Oklahoma (Norbert Clark)

Norbert played about half the game in relief of starter Reuben Delgado. He completed 11 of 14 passes for 161 yards with 1 TD. He was not sacked or intercepted. The Huskies were never in the game, losing 65-0.


Air Force at Michigan (Emmanuel Harris)

Emmanuel did not play in Michigan's opener against Air Force, won by the Wolverines 24-14.

Hey. Just wanted to let everybody that follows this thread as closely as I do that am currently doing a similar one. This is in no way trying to steal Wuss' thunder, it's more just something to keep you busy until he updates again .

My five guys all play different positions (QB, RB, WR, DE, CB) and we are currently in the recruiting process.

Check it out!

Keep up the great work WussGawd!

Five Great QB Sightings, Week 3

UCLA (Byron Huntley) at Ohio State

Byron misses the game with a sprained back. He is listed as out 4 weeks. The poor play of his replacement, Mark Forbes, contributed heavily to Ohio State's 3 point win.


Clemson (Willie Jennings) at Kansas State

Although his numbers are not spectacular, Willie throws three touchdown passes in the second half to spark a comeback (Kansas State led 17-7 at the half) as the Tigers win in overtime 34-31.

Willie finishes with a modest of 12 of 27 completions for 213 yards with 3 Touchdowns and 2 Interceptions. He is not sacked and runs 6 times for 59 yards, including a 40 yard gain.


Oklahoma (Norbert Clark) at Tulsa

Norbert finally gets into the game in the fourth quarter, but does little more than take a couple of knees. He does not throw a pass in Oklahoma's 55-3 laugher over the Golden Hurricane.


Notre Dame at Michigan (Emmanuel Harris)

Emmanuel sees his first game action as a Wolverine in the worst possible circumstances, after Notre Dame had ran up the score, and the first two quarterbacks had failed. The results were not pretty. Emmanuel threw three times, all incompletions, late in the fourth, as the Golden Domers pounded Michigan before 100,000+ Michigan faithful, 42-3.

2006 Week 4 Five Great Quarterback Sightings

Alaska-Barrow at UCLA (Byron Huntley)

Byron did not play (he's still recovering from an injury) as teammate Lewis Castillo ran absolutely wild (25 carries, 388 yards, including a 67 TD run on the first play from scrimmage) around, over, and through a porous Alaska-Barrow defense, 45-0.


Florida at Michigan (Emmanuel Harris)

Emmanuel did not play as the Gators rallied from a 21-10 third quarter deficit to win in overtime 38-31 over the reeling Wolverines, losers of two straight in Michigan Stadium.


Air Force at Florida State (Joel McDonald)

Joel played perhaps the most solid game of his career as the Seminoles throttled the punchless Falcons, 38-10. He completed 18 of 23 passes for 235 yards with 3 Touchdowns. He suffered no sacks or interceptions, and helped himself on the ground, carrying the ball 9 times for 50 yards.

2006 Week 5 Five Great Quarterback Sightings

UCLA (Byron Huntley) at Washington State

Byron continues to nurse his injury and sat out the game as his backup, Greg Forbes suffered a nightmare game (16 of 33 with 2 TDs, Sacked 5 Times) and Lewis Castillo was stuffed completely (19 carries for 35 yards) in UCLA's 28-14 loss to the Cougars.


Florida State (Joel McDonald) at North Carolina

Joel had a great game, completing 12 of 16 passes for 154 yards with no picks and no sacks. His only two touchdowns were on the ground as he ran it in twice for scores. He carried the ball 5 times for 30 yards, then watched from the sidelines in the second half as the Seminoles ran away in a laugher, 52-10.


Michigan (Emmanuel Harris) at Iowa

Emmanuel watched from the sidelines as Michigan quickly mounted a 14-0 lead, then hung on for dear life against the previously unbeaten Hawkeyes, 14-10.

2006 Week 6 Quarterback Sightings

UCLA (Byron Huntley) at Stanford

Donning a flak jacket to protect his still tender back, Byron Huntley gamely returned to face the Cardinal. Perhaps the pain enabled him to focus, but whatever the reason, Byron turned in one of his best games ever, completing 20 of 25 passes for 326 yards with a TD (no interceptions, 1 sack) as the Bruins racked up 632 yards of total offense in throttling the Cardinal, 45-20.


Kansas State at Oklahoma (Norbert Clark)

Norbert watched from the sidelines as his beloved Sooners won a wild and woolly affair that had a little bit of everything over Kansas State, 45-37.


Clemson (Willie Jennings) at NC State

Willie tossed two first quarter touchdowns as the Clemson Tigers took a 28-10 halftime lead, then held off a furious fourth quarter rally to upset the Wolfpack, 34-28.

Willie finished with great numbers, completing 16 of 22 passes for 276 yards, with 2 Touchdowns against 1 Interception (no sacks).


Wake Forest at Florida State (Joel McDonald)

In the first half, Florida State struggled to control the Demon Deacons' running attack, and at halftime, it was 21-14, Wake Forest.

In the second half, however, Florida State adjusted, slowed Wake Forest's running game, and Joel McDonald went from ice cold to white hot, with the Seminoles reeling off 49 second half points. Joel finished with 17 of 23 completions for 262 yards and 3 Touchdown passes (no sacks or interceptions). He also helped himself on the ground, carrying the ball 6 times for 46 yards and a rushing touchdown in the 63-35 win.


Michigan (Emmanuel Harris) at Indiana

Emmanuel once again held the clipboard as Michigan beat the lowly Indiana Hoosiers 17-14.

Week 7 Great Quarterback Sightings

California at UCLA (Byron Huntley)

This, undoubtedly, is a game that Byron would rather have forgotten. He started off struggling, then left the game for the duration in the second quarter with what the game log described as a "serious injury". His replacement, Greg Forbes, was miserable. The team wasn't much better. It was 10-0 Cal at the half, and a trade of touchdowns made it 17-7 at the end of the third. Then UCLA absolutely collapsed, coughing up 28 fourth-quarter points to lose 45-15.

Byron was 3 of 7 for 44 yards with no picks or TDs when he left the game. As for the severity of the injury, I'll leave you in suspense for the moment.


Oklahoma (Norbert Clark) at Texas Tech

Norbert did not play as the Sooners waxed the Red Raiders, 34-3.


Florida State (Joel McDonald) at Duke

Joel put in a solid start, getting things done with both his feet and his arm as the Seminoles rolled over the Blue Devils 42-16. Joel ran 10 times for 35 yards, and completed 14 of 20 for 176 yards with 2 Touchdowns. He was not intercepted, but was sacked twice. The telling statistic, Florida State ran 45 times for 233 yards against a porous Duke front seven.


North Carolina at Clemson (Willie Jennings)

Wille completed passes with the coldness of an executioner as the Tigers trashed the Tar Heels 42-3. Willie completed 12 of 16 passes for 196 yards with 3 Touchdowns. He did not thrown an interception or take a sack.


Purdue at Michigan (Emmanuel Harris)

Emmanuel Harris watched as the Wolverines beat the Boilermakers 38-27.
