fales to nevada

Why is so much stock put into a camp by college recruiters? Doesn't performance in a game count?
Well yes, it does.
Trust me, when you complete 72 percent of your passes, as Palma quarterback David Fales did last year, you are going to get some attention.
But when you show that same composure in a highly-competitive elite camp, now recruiters know it's not a fluke. No longer are you being criticized or judged for the league or area you play in.
Fales put on a show a month ago at a camp in Berkeley, compiling the third highest score among 65 quarterbacks that were considered potential Division I prospects.
It was enough to warrant attention from at least a dozen Division I schools, where Fales choose the University of Nevada on Monday.
Some might argue why rush a decision when you've got schools like Oregon State and Kansas State contacting you?
Well Fales didn't want the distractions going into his senior season. Plus Nevada runs a shotgun offense that suits his skills. And they did go to a bowl game last year.
