And, no, the HQ isn't kidding...
Tathan "Tate" Martell is a 14-year-old San Diego QB who attended something called the Innovations Academy Charter School in San Diego last year will be home-schooled this year. Martell attended quarterback guru Steve Clarkson's Throwback Football League in Southern California, and is now the youngest student to commit to a Division 1 school since David Sills committed to USC in 2010.
Here’s the email sent out to by Clarkson's Pee-Ahr firm...
“8th grade quarterback and San Diego native Tate Martell has just made a verbal commitment to the University of Washington. Discovered by renowned quarterback coach Steve Clarkson, Martell was a part of the Throwback Football League as a member of the Mira Mesa Chargers, and was named MVP of the 2012 season. He is the youngest student to commit to a Division 1 school since Clarkson’s discovery David Sills committed to USC in 2010.”
And, yes, there are actual highlights his family have put up on the Interwebs...
Clarkson goes way back with U-Dub coach Steve Sarkisian and has taught Sills, Nate Montana, and Matt Barkley...
Obviously, the school can't comment on a commit that is that early...
But Clarkson is supposed to talk about it later on...
