Having seen almost all of Probst's games in HS, I think he was the real deal. If he hadn't gotten hurt, he almost certainly would have been the starter after Jones. Not saying he would have single handedly turned the 1999 season into a winner, but we would have been better at QB. Farmer had a ton of talent, but was injury prone.
