Lefty QB's in recruiting???

[jdrhammer]

Has anyone noticed a newly signed QB who comes in and is Left Handed? I know they haven't marked them on next gen but I haven't seen one yet that has been generated from the recruiting pool since I've progressed in my OD.

Just wondering if anyone happened to get any.

I had one in a NCAA '09 OD. haven't recruited a lefty in NCAA 10 yet. I believe you can switch a players hand though, so if you really wanted one you can change a new recruit to be a lefty.

Yeah, just curious to see if there had been one signed. Just bored, I guess.

I have one starting this year. He's a RS freshman that I recruited last year. He's a 77 overall but performing very well. Takes a while to get used to the southpaw when I've been using righties for about 4 or 5 seasons.

Cool.

Yes, it is challenging since the PA boot and roll-out plays by the QB go the wrong way. Thus, if you are doing a standard roll-out for example, the lefty would have to stop and pivot before throwing - Can't tell you how many times I got sacked because the DE would catch up.

I have one as well, they do exist.

I had a player on NCAA08 play quarterback for me as a lefty, but he was already on the game and recruited already. I've never come across a left handed QB recruit myself.
