Reese Phillips from Signal Mountain High SchoolSignal Mountain quarterback Reese Phillips fared well in an Elite 11 regional quarterback competition this past weekend in Atlanta.
“I know I did well, but I also know I didn’t make the final four because those guys went through a two-minute drill before they selected the winner,” said Phillips, a rising senior but still a relative unknown in national recruiting circles.
“You have to remember that Reese played just 10 games at quarterback last season,” Signal coach Bill Price said. “People are still finding out about him.”
Phillips, a 6-foot-2, 218-pounder who is still growing, received his first two official offers Monday — from Middle Tennessee State and Memphis.
“Those are just the first two,” Price said. “There will be plenty more.”
