Gathered among the top quarterbacks in college football, Boise State junior Brett Rypien found himself deep in conversation with the most decorated one of them all.
Speaking from Steve Clarkson’s Quarterback Retreat in Coronado, Calif., Rypien said he spent about a half-hour Friday night getting to know Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson, the 2016 Heisman Trophy winner.
Rypien and Jackson are among the handful of camp counselors working with the approximately 75 quarterbacks from grades 6-12, leading drills Saturday and Sunday, then having a little quarterback challenge of their own.
“Getting to hang out with the other top quarterbacks, get away from all the pressures we face at our position, it’s a great experience,” Rypien said.
