ESPN Scout's comments on Hageman and Alipate from UA practices

[sonnygarcia]

On Hageman: "Tight end Ra'Shede Hageman (Minneapolis/Washburn) certainly passed the eyeball test physically, but he seemed to struggle at times with the increased speed of this high level of competition. While he showed he was a difficult matchup with his height on smaller linebackers, his hands were inconsistent. "

On Alipate: " Moses Alipate (Bloomington, Minn./Jefferson) flashed impressive zip on his intermediate routes."

The comments on Hageman don't concern me, I'm guessing most high school players need to adjust to the speed at the next level.

Sounds like Alipate has a low release and will be third string for the game, not a big slight as two great QBs are ahead of him. I think he has done pretty well and was the best Qb on some days.
