Football Recruiting - Steven Threet

Some recent stuff on QB recruit Steven Threet

Article #1

Entering Friday's Southeastern Conference showdown at Chelsea (3-0), Adrian (3-0) had won its games by an average of 25 points. Quarterback Steve Threet , who committed to Georgia Tech, hasn't been asked to make the big play under pressure or throw many passes. Threet is averaging only 17 passes a game, but his touchdown-to-turnover ratio (7-1) has been more than satisfactory. The Maples, coached by Phil Jacobs , are averaging 400 yards.


Article #2:

4 ADRIAN (3-0) AT CHELSEA (3-0), 7 TODAY. Neither team has been tested in the first three games, which makes this an even bigger game for both. Chelsea has to find a way to control Georgia Tech-bound QB Steven Threet. SOS would suggest eight defensive backs, but then Jarrod Knorr, if he is back this week, or Undra Peterson would have a field day carrying the ball. Chelsea QB Jon Seelbach needs to hook up with Nate Schwarze a few hundred times to keep the Bulldogs close. Adrienne Pertakis 24, Chelsea Morning 20.


Article #3:

With the somewhat depleted backfield, senior quarterback Steven Threet stepped up big and completed 8 of 15 attempts for 222 yards and a pair of touchdowns.


“Our quarterback was much more accurate tonight and he made some great decisions,” Jacobs said of his 6-foot-4 future Georgia Tech player. “We executed pretty well tonight and our run game has improved, also. Our offense put it together tonight.”

Georgia Tech also did well this year, earning a commitment from Michigan quarterback Steven Threet. Threet doesn't have the mobility of Ball, but that can't be expected at 6-6 and 225 pounds. He has a strong arm and excellent accuracy and is physically ready to challenge early.
