Through three games, Raiola has completed 42 of 61 of his passes for a 68.5 percent completion rate, throwing for 649 yards and five touchdowns, averaging 15.45 yards per completion and 10.63 yards per throw. He’s also recorded seven carries for 18 yards and a rushing touchdown.
“He’s able to create, but he’s able to do that with his football IQ,” Chandler coach Rick Garretson told. “His football IQ is way beyond his years. He works at it. He’s a guy that studies film. It’s like the gym rat theory, right, but on the film side of things. He works at it, and he lives for it. It shows. His film from last year shows the things he can do, and when you combine that skill set with the mental side of things, it’s a recipe for success.
“His leadership skills are just unbelievable. With his knowledge and his football IQ, he understands fronts, he understands secondaries, and he understands coverages. He understands protections that we allow our quarterback to be in control of here. When you have those abilities, his skill set is just an addition to all of that and makes for the ingredients of an outstanding player.”
Raiola attended OSU’s season opener against Notre Dame on Sept. 3 and has been a vocal peer recruiter for Ohio State on social media.
