RW is 5'11" and now 25 yrs old in his 3rd season. Boykin is 6'2" unofficially and sturdy, fast, shifty and wow look at him throw it deep. Great attitude and a player who would look great on the bench until Tony hangs them up. Look at this kid play and you will be amazed. Oh...he is smart and can run. He even takes a slide like Russell does just as he gets his yards before the hit. And Ive been watching this guy 3 years now and he know how to hit also. This 4th year Junir is a former athelete WR RB and QB who now is a full time QB.



these are 2103-14 highlights and I will tell you he is light years ahead of this video now. Best offense in college football.

I don't think Boykin is as accurate as Wilson nor as good a decision maker. He will definitely benefit from sitting on the bench for a couple of seasons.

Have you watch him and if so how much. BTW I've probably seen every snap of his career.

Yes, I've watched him play quite a bit the last couple of years. He has improved since last season. He isn't ready for the big time just yet. Give him a couple of years sitting behind someone and learning and he may be a decent NFL QB.

Boykins is an improved player but the Russell Wilson comparisons are laughable imo. Wilson is a rare talent.

No. Wilson was very accurate and much more polished then Boykin is at similar stages of their respective careers. Now, if you are asking if Boykin can become a player LIKE Wilson, then I think it's possible. Boykin is improving by the game IMO. He could be interesting if he continues to develop.

If you want to know who's game I think is closest to Wilson's in College Football today, it's the kid from BYU. Tysom Hill, a kid who recently broke his leg, is the one who reminds me most of Wilson in College Football Today.

I love Hill. That's a guy that I hope the Cowboys take a really good hard look at.

To my eye, Hill plays more like Tebow than Wilson, and not just because of the color of his skin. Hill is faster and more accurate than Tebow, but he's more of a power runner than a quick guy like Wilson. Don't get me wrong. Hill is fast. But he seems to run more with power than agility and elusiveness.

Not me. Hill, IMO, is way more accurate then Tebow ever was. He, IMO, is much, much better at commanding an Offense and he's not nearly as one dimensional as Tebow. Hill can actually read defenses and throw the ball accurately.

I've only seen him play twice. I hope you're right and I hope he ends up in Dallas. Good football player.

He's as good a Football QB as I've seen in College football this year. The only QB I would take over him would be Mariota and we will never get the opportunity to draft him. To me, he's the perfect guy to draft and sit behind Tony.

Hill had a major knee injury in 2012. He broke his leg this season, which included tears to every major ligament in the area. I think he has another year of eligibility left.

-Boykin had a monster game today as TCU dropped 82 points (!!) on Texas Tech in a rout.

-He was impressive, throwing for 433 yards and a school record 7 TD's.

-And that was all through 3 quarters before he was relieved by the backup. He was on pace to throw for 577 yards and 9 TD's. That's pretty impressive, even if it is against a bad defense like Tech.

-He's going to be an interesting prospect if he continues to develop as a passer. He's still got another year to do so, and if he does he'll be a guy to watch out for. Still needs to improve his completion % though, as he's only at 55% this season. That # needs to come up about 10%.

-Here are the highlights from today's game.

At best Boykin is the next Geno Smith.

I'm a huge TCU fan, (my favorite college team) but I don't these types of QBs. Boykin won't translate to the NFL.

He really needs to come back for his senior season so he can continue to develop. I don't know how good of an NFL prospect he can be but he needs another year. His two WRs are juniors too so that TCU offense can still get even better in 2015.

Even if he finishes Top-5 in the Heisman race, as an NFL prospect, I think he'd be a mid-rounder at best in this upcoming draft

Agreed he needs to return for his Senior season and continue to develop as a passer. He's made huge strides since last year, but still could and should get significantly better as a QB. Mid-rounder sounds about right if he were to come out after this year. I doubt he does that.

Boykin is playing unreal right now. If he wins the Heisman, I think he's going pro, regardless of what scouts think of him. Would LOVE to see him come back another year though...I am starting to see some of the Russell Wilson comparisons now. Give him another year and he'll be very polished

If he is I don't want him . Wilson is nothing more than a bus driver who can run like a RB. I'll pass , in fact I think Wilson will be a backup in a couple years . He's terrible as a pocket passer .
