OT: The Best QB You've Never Heard About?


Since the Fighting Irish aren't playing today -- I'm driving up to Big Rapids, MI to see "my" Ferris State Bulldogs take on "Brian Kelly's" Grand Valley State Lakers tonight in a battle for the "Anchor-Bone" Trophy.

The Bulldogs -- ranked #16 in the country, NCAA Division II -- are led by a 6'-4" 241 lb. "bulldozer" of a QB named Jason Vander Laan.  The junior is a favorite to win Division II's "Heisman Trophy" -- the HARLAN HILL TROPHY -- coming off a sophomore season where he had these crazy stats:
  • 1,607 yards rushing -- ALL-TIME RECORD FOR A QB IN DIV. II
  • 1,493 yards passing
  • 29 TDs -- 13 passing / 16 rushing

You're going to want to watch his highlight reel!
