Lafayette’s proven, big-play QB with a sturdy Patriot League résumé
Andrew Shoop emerged as Lafayette’s starter in the 2011 season and showed real command in the pocket, throwing for 2,024 yards, 15 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions while completing 56% of his passes in the 2011 season; he also flashed upside with multiple 200-yard games and a four-TD outing against Penn. He fits the “tough, leadership-first” mold, with Lafayette noting his role as a team captain and his willingness to play through the physical grind. The key question is consistency—he has the arm talent and confidence to run an offense, but turnovers were part of the package.
