Possesses prototype physical specs at the QB spot. Good functional athlete on the field who has supported that with testing numbers early in high school career (4.69 40, 4.40 shuttle as a sophomore). Light on his feet in the pocket. Sets and resets quickly and with impressive body control. Good short-to-intermediate zip. Accuracy steadily improved over course of high school career and is reflected in completion percentages higher than 70.0 in junior and senior years. State title-winner who posted outstanding production. Clearly a pass-first QB but flashes athleticism to make plays with his legs, whether buying time or scrambling for yardage. Excels in off-schedule situations and shows encouraging ability to vary arm angles as needed. Remains accurate on the run and shows good ball placement in general. Displays the requisite vertical arm strength but can still improve velocity on deeper throws over the middle/down the seams. Occasional hitch in delivery can slightly decelerate release quickness. Dominated smaller-school competition in high school and will make significant jump to P5 level. One of the nation's top QB's in the 2021 recruiting cycle who owns a strong football pedigree as a coach's son. Should become a multi-year high-major starter with all-conference potential and a ceiling in the early rounds of the NFL Draft.

Just threw one that should have been a long pick six, but the guy dropped it. Word has it that he has talent, but only 21 career passes before this game and it shows. Remember, Will Levis was an unnoticed backup too before transferring to Kentucky.

I know it’s Southern Mississippi, but Vandagriff is looking good in his first college start. At 9:56 in the 3rd he is 12/18 169 yards and 3 TDs. Game is suspended because of lightning. The start of the game was already delayed two hours for the same reason.

The game was called after the 2nd lightning delay at 9:56 in the 3rd qtr. Vandagriff is someone to keep an eye on in fantasy. Who knows, he could make a Levis type of ascension, coming out of obscurity to being a factor in the NFL draft........or not.
