Evaluation
Stephen Gill Jr. (24′) | 6-1, 195 | QB | St. John’s
Stephen is a recruit to know with division I interest from schools like Rice, Penn, and others. Gill features a beautiful threes step drop back, and has a rocket launcher of an arm that can hit receivers 50 yards plus downfield in stride with ease. His quick release of the football, excellent timing with his receivers, and accuracy are just a few things that make him Gill special. He has no problem finding the end zone as he was able to complete 25 touchdowns this past season in 2022 and threw for over 2,300 yards on the year. Gill also displays that he can get the job done himself and score points with his sheer athleticism and speed with lethal open-field moves to find the end-zone. Gill can hurt defenses with his legs or arm and can throw stikes to open receivers on the run. Stephen throws a beautiful football with a nice spiral and knows when and when not to put velocity on passes. Will be a quarterback we suspect could pass up many on our rankings of 2024 quarterbacks, and be one who adds a bunch of stars and offers by his name.
