Elias Prentice QB
Timberjacks

85 yards from a man who was a walk-on at Cutler Bible who did not have a scholarship until his third year. The scouting industry declines to comment. Out of Cutler Bible, which sends one of these to the league about once a decade. It counts the same as anybody else's.

1,809 yards over his first season. Thirty touchdowns. Seventeen games.

He is twenty-three, out of Bitter Lake, Idaho. Around the building he has never been described as easy to coach.

Timberjacks, 1-0, and one weeks gone. Garrett Ulmer is new.

Prentice answers every question in exactly one sentence.
