#6 overall prospect, #1 QB in initial 24/7 class of '13 rankings.

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

I am just glad Shane Morris isn't #1

 

[DomerInHappyValley]

IIRC we got both of his brothers coming out of HS. Would think if we don't lead we sit top 5.

 

[aubeirish]

They both transferred though...

 

[Buster Bluth]

They both transferred though...

Does someone care to elaborate here?

 

[aubeirish]

He is the younger brother of Greg Olsen(TE) and Chris Olsen(QB). Both were at Notre Dame, and both transferred. Greg went to Miami, obviously the NFL now. Chris ended up at Virginia. Chris didn't feel like Notre Dame was for him so he left. Two days later Greg transferred as well. I could be wrong, but I don't think Greg ever suited up for ND.

 

[GreatGolson]

i like him, but Alviti is more of a spread quarterback and initially, looks like a better runner

 

[Zibby32]

If two brothers transferred from ND... I dont see how he would even consider

 

[GBdomer]

He will consider ND. no hard feelings.

 

[aubeirish]

Well, I don't think they have anything against the school. I'm sure the parents like it very much. Chris left because he didn't think he would fit as a QB... Greg just followed.

On a side note, he looks very polish as a passer. Ball is really accurate, and gets out of his hands really really fast. I can see why he is the best rated QB in the class so far. He is making college throws in his highlight film. Great size as well. Still look like a baby too. Best passer I have seen on film for the last three years. Look at the last play of his highlight film, he makes a nice 40 yards run. Kid can run too. Great prospect.

Committed to Miami

Miami QB signee Kevin Olsen charged with hit-and-run - CBSSports.com

Was almost assuredly drunk/high off his ***. Probably smart to flee the scene before landing in more hot water for being loaded.

Lol he hits a tree, gets out looks at the damage, drives away and hits a car, walks away, and his license is found 'near the scene' later? Dude was ****ed up haha.

No truth to the rumor that Petrino said, "My kind of guy!"

 

[Whiskeyjack]

I can't be the only one who opened this thread hoping for a transfer rumor. Needless to say:

 

[Luckylucci]

This has to be Kelly's fault!

I did.

Thought his dad was yanking him from MIA for lack of playing time already and sending him to ND so he could wear his brother's numbers.

haha.

 

[ChiRish]

Love Golden's comments in the article. Hitting a tree, leaving the scene of the accident, and not having the awareness to grab your license? Definitely sounds like a "non-issue" going forward.

Exactly. Since leaving the scene of an accident (even with injury or death) doesn't appear to be punished very much if at all, the driver is crazy to stay. His lawyer can come up with dozens of reasons it wasn't his fault and can get any number of whore psychologist and/or psychiatrist to place the blame elsewhere or excuse his behavior. It is very hard to explain an elevated blood alcohol and/or a blood poly pharmacy.
In Indy it seems we have one hit and run a week, usually just after the bars close.

Nah – this one's all on Jenkins.
