NCAA Recruiting 2014 - Buffalo Bulls - QB J.R. Zazzara - Verbal - Bull Run
J.R. Zazzara a dual threat quarterback from the Christian Brothers Academy in Syracuse gave a verbal to the Orange last summer. On the gridiron Zazzara, who is 6’3" 185 pounds, has shown his ability to throw the ball, make things happen when he runs.

He has drawn some interest from other P5 schools including Boston College but it seems his ability at Lacrosse is what most schools looked to capitalize on. UB Coach Quinn sees a solid athlete who can be used in variety of formations so he got the football offer out there first.

J.R. Zazzara still leads an undefeated Christian Brothers academy and is doing a fantastic job both passing and running the ball.
