Boise State Wants Nick Patti as Quarterback

When Eagle High School's Tanner Mangum chose to go to BYU, I didn't worry; I knew Coach Petersen and his staff would get someone better.  Now comes word that Boise State has offered Nick Patti of Dr. Phillips High School in Orlando.  One has to wonder if he wasn't the first choice anyway because, according to Patti, Coach Pete told him that he was the only quarterback the Broncos would offer.


Patti is 5'11, 195 and led his team to a 14-1 record last year, losing only in the Florida State Championship.  He carries a 3.50 G.P.A. into his senior year.  Patti threw for over 2,000 yards and rushed for 500 (he runs a 4.5 40) as a junior.  He had Kellen Moore-like numbers with 37 touchdowns against only four intercepts.  He understands the game very well, excels at reading opposing defenses, and can make any throw he needs to.
I'll have more info, including videos that you can take a look at soon.
