WVSPORTS.COM WVU QB commit Greene selected to compete in Elite 11 Finals
- Thread starter Keenan Cummings
- Start date
They are Bernard. They just didn't compete enough to make it to the next stop.
Great recognition but I haven't heard any QB say that the Elite 11 camp change the trajectory of their career.
More buzz and hype than anything else.

Elite 11 proudly proclaims on its website that 10 of the last 11 quarterbacks to have won a Heisman Trophy attended an Elite 11 event – be it the finals or a regional – and that 34 of the top NFL passers in 2015 were Elite 11 participants.

Omitting quarterbacks from 2014-16 – those players without a full collegiate sample size – the distribution of future NFL players (those who were on an active roster or spent at least one year on a practice squad), college starters (at least one year where they started the majority of games for an FBS team) or busts (those who didn’t pan out) is a perfectly even 57 across the three major categories.
Quarterbacks billed as the best in the country are just as likely to flame out as they are to reach the pros.
There are certainly greats sprinkled in, but not as many Elite 11 members as you’d think went on to be college stars.
Recruiting, as a whole, is a projection. At the end, even with a complete sampling of high school and camp work, the picture for a prospect’s future is usually murky at best.
In today’s era of college football, a player often bolts if he hasn’t played by his sophomore year – 39.8 percent of a possible 176 Elite 11 alumni from 1999-2013 transferred at least once in their career. The trend is even more evident in the modern era where over 50 percent of Elite 11 members from 2009-2013 transferred at least once in their career.
That trend isn't changing either. The 2014 Elite 11 class has already seen five of its 11 members transfer despite group members entering either their junior or redshirt sophomore season.

I am only familiar with about 7 of the 20.
I do see Chandler Morris listed. Don't know how he is included. He is a potential bust for sure.
Not all QBs that are invited are expected to be future NFL QBs. Don't even know if Chandler should be the starting QB at Arkansas. It is nepotism at its finest. They probably could get Haynes King if they pushed him.

Coming from the program he is coming from I don't see the potential.
5-10 QBs with average arm and athleticism don't turn into NFL QBs unless they come from a program known to rely exclusively on QB play.
He has a lot of talent around him at Highland Park. Even if it is borderline FBS talent at the least. He is more of a game manager instead of a game decider.
I think the entire situation will turn out horrible for Arkansas. Haynes King would take a listen if they whispered in his ear. Don't need a QB because he is the coach's son and not recruit anyone else

What is happening is WV is getting a QB that has a lot of buzz.
Said to be one of the top QBs out of Florida. Never seen him throw but some of the talent evaluators on Rivals are high on him.

I have about 25 recruits I am familiar with since their freshman year.
50 more since their sophomore year.
75-100 since last year.
From now till February I will be familiar with probably about 50 more.
I don't know much about Greene.
My opinion of Greene is based on what the Rivals experts say. Truthfully never heard of him till December.
Things I don't know about I like to learn about. Easy as that.
Never claimed to be an expert on anything.
