Kevin Olson may not have a Cannon, but he's got the goods.#miami


RecruitingNation‏@RecruitingESPN
Kevin Olsen hasn't grabbed the same headlines as Hackenberg, Browne, Morris, but the #Miami commit is definitely an elite guy.

Kevin Olsen has thrown some good balls.

Brian Stumpf‏@BrianStumpfESPN
Geno Smith's group just killed the rail shot station - Johnny Stanton, Anthony Jennings, Kevin Olsen and Cody Thomas. @TDESPN was loving it

Scout was doing a preview to the Elite 11 and when they brought up Kevin Olsen the guy said he thought he could "absolutely kill it and be the one or two kid at the camp".

Kevin Olsen, accompanied with all the independent accolades, can likely assist in our recruiting.

 

[Canesfan1899]

Can't wait to get him on campus, kid is going to be great QB IMO.

One year under Morris and then he's a 4 year QB here.

 

[Andrew]

Would you shirt him as a fesh or let him cleanup for Morris?

Feel like that would be the way to handle him was well. We will have Williams, Crow, and Dewey already for snaps. It would make sense to let Olsen grow a little bit and have ready for the QB battle as a redshirt freshman.

Redshirt. Actually, I remember seeing an interview with him where WANTED to redshirt so he could get stronger and learn the play book. He's gonna be a good one.

Easy now, peoples. I read better reviews about Kyle Wright back in the day.


The kid will have to beat out Preston Dewey. That's not a given. Olsen could end up being a career 2nd stringer here.

Dewey isn't even the #1 QB in his CLASS at UM right now, fwiw.

IOU on Canesport, who is tight with all the kids, sure seems to think he is.

Dewey hasn't outplayed Crow yet, but I really do think that has more to do with the rust he has from being out with his injuries.

Wright would have and should have been a **** good QB here with better coaching. He was an All-ACC kid his first year as a starter but got worse the longer he stayed in the program. For the better part of a decade that has been a common theme with many of our guys. Remember how excited we all were about the 2008 class after they had us in first place in the Coastal as true freshman. Outside of Spence and B Harris, the rest of the guys who played that year either didn't get better or got worse. That's poor coaching.

For Olsen and anybody else we bring in under Golden and company the player development has to be better. We saw a little of that last year with Jacory having a solid year and Streeter finally producing but we need a lot more of that.

 

[Port Knox]

Dewey needs to hit the weights.

 

[Bennubird]

Yep. I've been saying this for years.
