The hot streak of schools offering the strong armed quarterback from Utah continues. Michael Affleck (6-3, 235, 4.7) from Provo (Utah) Timpview returned from his Elite 11 experience find out that he has received two more offers.
Affleck was recently offered by Arizona and Utah to go with his previous offers from Colorado and ASU.

At the present time Colorado and Arizona are leading for the services for this talented signal caller.
Affleck camped at both schools and went away impressed by both schools.
“Both places were great,” Affleck said. “I liked both schools a lot and both schools have really good coaching staffs.”
“I like Colorado because of their recent rating in the rankings,” Affleck said. “I like Arizona because the Wildcats throw the ball a lot.”
USC is still very much in the hunt for this field general. “I thought the USC camp was awesome,” Affleck said. “Coach (Pete) Carroll and coach (Norm) Chow both worked with me a lot.”
The Trojans are holding off an offer until Kyle Wright makes a decision. If Wright decides on a school other than USC, the Trojans might come forth with an offer and if they do, SC would be the team to beat.
Affleck made the of his chance s to throw as a junior when he completed 105 passes out of 195 tries, hitting on 54% of his attempts for 2,090 yards and 14 touchdowns.
Believe it or not, Affleck was among the top four bench pressers at the Nike camp held at Colorado. He lifted 185 pounds, 26 times. Those are good numbers for anyone but they are extraordinary for a quarterback.
He benches 340 pounds, squats 450 and recorded a 27 ½-inch vertical jump.
