Louisiana Lafayette Rajin Cajuns
Quarterback Jon Van Cleave has terrific size, stature and a big league
arm on his shoulder. Standing strong in the pocket, Van Cleave displays the
ability to get the pass-off with opponents draped on him and zips the outs or
drives the ball downfield, placing throws in front of his targets and letting
them run to the ball. He needs a lot of work on his technique, footwork
specifically. Amongst other things, Van Cleave never sets his feet in the pocket
and releases the ball off his backfoot, tending to stare down his primary
target. The underlying skills are available to develop Van Cleave if one can
iron out the details of his position. Jerome Coleman is a solid
collegiate runner best on the inside but lacks quickness, speed and strength for
the next level.
