Exciting news to hear three of the top quarterbacks in the nation in the Steve Clarkson Dreammaker Tour come from Oklahoma but that does lead to some potential conflicts.

Booker T’s Jordy Albert performed so well that he has been invited to the July event in Hawaii. But does a five-day event in Maui trump some quality time spent with your team?

And while the Tour is great publicity for the individual athletes, it would basically put Albert out of pocket for the Hornets for at least a week, including all the travel.

Albert told me he’s not sure what he is going to do yet. Especially with new coach Darrell Hall, you hate to miss any time with a new regime that you don’t have to.

He won a regional award titled the “All Field General Team” for the Midwest Region.  This media-based award, allows him the opportunity to attend the Super 7 event in Maui with the Super 7 QB’s and members of the Tour’s private training family.

Edmond quarterback Jack Hatzfeld will not be attending the event. The youth QBs do not have their expenses paid for, and it’s tough to really gauge how much 12-13-year-old kids would get from something like this.
