Highfill is an excellent quarterback. He is not only talented, but he works harder than anyone I've seen and is an amazing leader. He is probably the best quarterback Bridgewater has seen...

Wow!! a very bold comment considering that it's his first year starting and incidentally the first year of the las six that BC doesn't make the playoffs. I'm not saying that one man makes or breaks a team and would grant you the comment if he had tremendous numbers... But to say the best?
