Spencer Rattler is currently committed to the Oklahoma Sooners and they have a **** good one on their hands. This 6'2" 180 pound dynamic dealer of the football threw for 3946 yards and 45 touchdowns last year. Realistically Rattler doesn't have Miami currently high in consideration but InSight crosses all the T's and dots all the I's in 2019. We save the best for last in this final quarterback breakdown.
Spencer Rattler HUDL
Footwork/Rhythm: Excellent footwork for the high school level. Very quick in his drop and has great front stride. Will remain tall and balanced after throws and his reset game and gather is superb. No extra hitch steps noted. Does not over stride. Rattler's rhythm for the game is superb. Balls are perfectly delivered repeatedly on time. Rattler would have zero issues assimilating into a west coast offense predicated on precise rhythmic delivery of the football.
Accuracy/Arm Strength/Mechanics: In terms of accuracy, Rattler went into my kid's piggy bank and stole all of his dimes. Places the ball in perfect position that only his receiver can catch. Rattler makes tight window throws with utmost confidence and relative ease. Accuracy his JR year was charted at .649 Rattler is also adept at throwing on the break and throwing his receiver open. Rattler throws the ball in excess of 60 yards on film and hits the 50 mark with relative ease and no huge load or gather. Rattler could also factor well in any vertical passing scheme and has excellent touch on his deep ball. Jr year shows a much more repeatable delivery of the football and his quick release would make a cheetah blush.
Mobility: Although Rattler is listed as a pro style quarterback (250 rushing in 2017) he easily could classify as a dual threat. He has good lateral burst and juke ability and is in appearance very slippery for defenders to contain. Multiple long runs were noted and he could factor in any zone read concept. Defensive coordinators would need to spy on occasions. Outside the pocket he creates plays and has an innate feel when to do so.
Roman Rank: Jealous. This is a high level functioning quarterback who looks off defenders, pump fakes and delivers the ball with absolute precision. The thing I find the most impressive from Rattler is his ability to see the whole field. He will elude defenders, roll to his right and find a wide open receiver on the other side of the field. Not that you can test tangibly off film, but I would safely bet money Rattler has excellent peripheral vision. Rattler also shows some moxy. The vibe is that this is a type of kid who would throw a game winning TD on the road vs the Seminoles and Tomahawk chop it on the 50 yard line.
I would also like for Rattler's offensive coordinator to take a bow. This guy needs to get a job on the next level. This is one of the more diversified formation-ally based pro offenses you will come across on the high school level. 22 set motion, I formation, empty and roll into a "I don't know what to call this formation." In multiple instances the whole offensive line is on one side of the field and just the center and Rattler are in the middle of the field. Rattler's athleticism is in full display in these sets. This is short yardage rush flag football-esque with no blocking and Rattler evades defenders with ease.
Rattler is an elite prospect in my eyes and I will grab a big bag of popcorn when his senior campaign film highlights are done. Ultimately Rattler is deserving of that U offer (every offer for that matter) and whoever ultimately inks this prospect's name come signing day has something special. Roman Rank 5.0 Stars (That is not an easy thing to do)
