The 6ft5 232lb quarter-back has entered the draft early and as it happens his college team University of Central Florida will be at GAA HQ in August to take on Penn State in the Croke Park Classic.

Ger caught up with Bortles' former coach George O'Leary to talk about the Top 5 draft pick and the big match later this summer.

"He'll be one of the first couple of picks, hopefully. He's had a great season and he's only a junior coming out early. He's a very talented individual," said O'Leary, who characterized the 22-year-old as humble and explained how colleges benefit from the exposure garnered by top draft picks.
