T.J. Finley - Ponchatoula Quarterback - Highlights/Interview

T.J. Finley takes pride in representing his home state as the starting quarterback at Ponchatoula High School in Louisiana. His commitment to the LSU Tigers fulfills a dream shared by many Louisiana high school players who grow up watching the Tigers compete in Death Valley.

Finley's combination of size, arm strength, and poise in the pocket has drawn comparisons to JaMarcus Russell, the former LSU quarterback selected first overall in the 2007 NFL Draft. Those comparisons reflect the high expectations surrounding Finley as he prepares to continue Louisiana's tradition of homegrown quarterback talent at the collegiate level.
