Had hoped to get this posted last night before the hoops game, but didn't. I enjoyed talking with Brad Salem on NSD about Lombardi and the intangibles he brings to the table. Looking back over the some of the lists of quarterbacks Michigan State has had in camp in recent years, it is pretty clear that the Spartans are attracting a lot of talent at the position. When Lombardi worked out for Salem as a junior, he was in a QB group that include that National Top 250 juniors Kasim Hill (Maryland) and Sean Clifford (Penn State).
I love the wrestling background with Lombardi. It speaks to his athleticism given how good he is at it while focusing on that sport part-time. There is a ton of talent nationwide in the 220-pound division, and to be considered Top 10 caliber is impressive.
Jim and I were talking about Lombardi last night, and he made the Bradlee Van Pelt comparison. I think that's a real good frame of reference.
