Also picked up another local kid from Liberty. Finseau? Sorry that what it sounded like, probably wrong spelling.
Ok Depth at the QB spot not sexy but it could pay off down the line you'll never know who will emerge healthy competition is best. Like it
a good section from a Tennessee recruiting site:
Mumphrey may just be a three-star, but his film and stats speak for themselves. He plays for John Ehret High School in Louisiana, one of the top high schools in the New Orleans area. After an 0-10 season in 2012, the Patriots have gone 52-15 the last five years. They’ve produced several high quality players, and Mumphrey helped lead them to a 9-4 mark and a playoff run last season.
Not only was Mumphrey a leader on the team, but he put up some solid numbers. As a junior last year, Mumphrey threw for 1,956 yards, 19 touchdowns, and nine interceptions while adding 605 rushing yards and seven touchdowns on 93 carries.
But his completion percentage is what really stands out.
Mumphrey attempted just 186 passes last season, but he completed a whopping 75.8 percent of those attempts. Most dual-threat quarterbacks can run exceptionally well just like Mumphrey can, but very few possess that type of accuracy.
“I’m more accurate than a normal dual-threat quarterback,” Mumphrey stated. “I just have a lot of confidence in myself that I can complete any pass on the field. It’s really just my confidence level.”
Mumphrey, who says he models himself after what E.J. Manuel and Jameis Winston did at Florida State as well as Cam Newton at Auburn, visited Tennessee last weekend after picking up the offer from the Vols. He’s been in contact with current four-star Vol commit Te’Cory Couch, and he says that current Tennessee defensive back Terrell Bailey “is like my cousin.”
And so far, Mumphrey likes what he’s hearing from Tennessee.
“I had a real good impression,” he said. “They’re the first big SEC school to take a chance on me. I’m not a big name in the recruiting circuit, but they want to take a chance on me.”
So why is it that a player like Mumphrey, who’s put up impressive numbers at a solid school, hasn’t hit the national radar yet? He has an idea why.
“I’m not the ideal height for a quarterback,” he stated. “I’m only 6-1, and an ideal height is like 6-2 to 6-4. I think that’s a big reason why.”
He may not have ideal height, but Mumphrey has ideal intangibles. If he can go out and make some impressions at camps over the summer and put up a good senior year, expect to see his name in the national spotlight a lot more.

Wow a lot of quality depth at QB over the next few years. Haven't had that in like.... ever?
He already had offers from major conference programs that included:
Arizona
Georgia Tech
Indiana
Tennessee
I think he just wants to get away from the east coast, and move out west. The big deal is it doesn't appear that he has any expectations of going pro which means Las Vegas is a great place to find a good job when he finishes with his education goals. While he still could end up going up to a 4* player and changing his mind, it is a big deal that more and more players are looking at UNLV over major program offers.
