Kolb Blog with Video Highlights (http://uhcougars.cstv.com/kevinkolb/index-main.html#)
Notes: Kolb is a 4 year starter and will leave Houston with most school and conference USA records and be near the top in many NCAA passing catagories. He has started 47 straight games, the longest streak in Division I-A. He has 16 300-yard passing games. Kolb ranks in the top four of every passing and total offense category in the history of Conference USA, including ranking first all-time in total offense (12,874 yards) and touchdowns responsible for (97). He ranks among the nation's best in several Division I-A active career leader categories including most passing yards.
Kolb will lead Houston to its third bowl game in four years this season, is 228-of-338 for 2,999 yards and 23 touchdowns with just three interceptions this season.
"He makes good decisions," SMU coach Phil Bennett said. "I can see a dramatic difference. He's not taking as many risks as he took a year ago."
Kolb has a quick release, good pocket awarness, good leadership abilities, experience ina pro style offense and has a strong arm capable of making all of the throws. He also shows good touch and timing in the short passing game.
The only question mark revolves around the level of competition he faces in Conference USA.
Bottom line is this kid may be the sleeper QB prospect in the draft. He would be a steel in the second or third round and could sneak up to the late first with a solid bowl game and post season.
