Starling getting noticed

Posted by Matt Scott On November - 4 - 2009

Bubba StarlingIf ESPNU 150 watch list QB, Bubba Starling, was a secret before the season started, the secret is out. Starling has quickly become one of the top dual threat quarterback prospect in the country, and everyone is noticing. At 6′5″, 190 pounds, Starling looks every bit the part of a pocket passer and he can throw like one too. Starling has the arm that every young quarterback hopes to have one day, he can throw it on a rope, with touch or flick it 60 yards down field. Adding to his passing ability is his ability to run the football.
