UCLA QB Commit Brett Nottingham: 2009 Bay Area News Group East Bay Offensive Football Player of the Year
As pointed out by garlon here, Brett Nottingham is the 2009 East Bay Offensive Football Player of the Year. Here's an excerpt from the link above:
"This year, at a school that produced former Gatorade National Player of the Year Kyle Wright and McAllister, Nottingham rewrote the record book. For his accomplishments this season, he has been named the Bay Area News Group East Bay Football Offensive Player of the Year. And the marks he set are historic.
His 3,962 yards and 45 touchdown passes both rank second in Northern California single-season history, according to the CalHiSports.com State Record Book and Almanac. His 7,467 career passing yards rank seventh in NorCal history, and his 69.1 percent career completion percentage is fifth in state history."
Congrats to Brett. I'm getting really excited seeing all these recruits pile on the accolades. Can't wait to see him and our other recruits next year. GO BRUINS.

Sweeeeeet
With Nottingham in the fold next year we will have the best dept at QB spot in years. I am hoping and praying Prince can stay healthy all year long so we just use Crissman for mop up duties and can redshirt both Brett and Richard next season.
Exactly my thoughts.
But do you really think they’ll redshirt Richard? The decision is obviously months away, but I’m not sure the coaches would really redshirt Brehaut. I’m worried they’re setting things up to waste his immense potential.

whether you redshirt Brehaut or not...
… you have at most 2 years of Brehaut/Nottingham starting, assuming KP remains starter until he graduates…
… which I think will probably push one or other of them to transfer.
Particularly when they look at the case of “Matt Moore – NFL starting quarterback”….

Moore transfferred
Because Dorrell and his staff botched the whole situation. They handled it terribly without communicating much with Moore. That is not the case with Brehaut.
If Prince remains healthy to take all the snaps next year, Brehaut redshirts along with Nottingham and we will have our QBs spaced out year apart, which should give us continuity without transferring.
One problem...
Prince can’t seem to stay healthy. Always seems to get injured somehow, kind of like Ben Olson.
Yeah, we will see
I think his case is different than Olson. Olso suffered a lot of freak injuries (that didn’t have anything to do with game action). I really believe Prince can improve his durability if he wears the freaking mouthpiece and also learns to slide. Olson’s injuries (except for the beating he took against Utah) came during practices.
Don’t forget

QB Longevity
is tied to O line development, too.
More talent, better protection.
More talent, a running game develops.
Both keep D’s from teeing off on QB.
I think the fact that good qb’s are signing with us shows that they believe we will have an O line to protect them.
