Bishop's football coach Joel Allen, who set numerous CIF San Diego Section records himself as a quarterback at Christian High, offers a positive endorsement of quarterback Collin Rugg of La Jolla, whom his team faced earlier in the season.

"Obviously, he's a big kid. He has great pocket presence. He throws a good ball," said Allen, when asked Rugg's prospects for college next year. "I think the sky's the limit. What is he? 6'2"? 6'3?" (6'3" actually). He just needs someone to give him a chance."


"He sits real confident in the pocket," observed Allen.


"I think we defended well against their receivers. I don't know how much we did against him."


The Knights (7-0) played the Vikings in week 2, defeating La Jolla 42-7.
