Today’s Player of the Day: Briggs Cherry (@BriggsCherry3 ) At 6’4”, 215 lbs, the true freshman is a Four Star Quarterback out of The Baylor School in Chattanooga walks in looking the part. But what separates Briggs isn’t just the frame or the arm talent, it’s everything underneath it. His path wasn’t handed to him. Cherry stepped into the starting role his junior year after sitting behind Whit Muschamp, learning, developing, and waiting his turn. That time mattered. Because when his number was called, he didn’t just step in, he took over. From that point on, it was consistency at a high level. Nearly 6,000 passing yards, completing 75% of his attempts and only 2 Interceptions in his HS career 2024: 2,718 yards, 31 TD, just 3 INT on 69.2% completion . Led Baylor to a 24-1 record as a starter and a State Championship in his senior year, while earning All-State honors, and being named most accurate passer at Elite 11 (2025), In which he broke Daniel Kaelin”s previous record of 56 by scoring a 63 in the Panini Accuracy Challenge What makes Briggs stand out even more , is who he is as a teammate. Coaches and players say the same thing, he’s a locker room guy. The type everyone gravitates toward. The type who will do whatever it takes to help his team win. He sat, learned, supported, and when his moment came, he delivered. That’s been consistent since he was young. There’s a toughness there too that you can’t teach. Last season, ahead of a rivalry game against McCallie, things got personal. Videos were sent around trying to get in his head, including emotional moments involving his family. His number was leaked to the student body. Hundreds of messages came in over the next couple days. He didn’t respond, He handled it the only way that matters. Silence… and winning. Briggs was a highly sought after recruit in the 2026 cycle, with schools such as Ohio State , and Georgia attempting to get involved late in his recruitment , but he remained loyal to the Cardinals Now fast forward to Louisville An early enrollee this spring, Briggs has already started to turn heads. The game isn’t too fast for him. His ability to diagnose defenses, recognize pressure, and operate within the offense at this stage stands out immediately. Yes, the size is there. Yes, the arm talent is there. But what most don’t see until you really watch him is the anticipation and vision. That’s what separates him. That’s what translates. He showed it again in the spring game. Poised, controlled, decisive. Making tight window throws and commanding the moment like it wasn’t too big. I’ve said it before, and I’ll stand on it. He’s “The Future”. Not just at quarterback, but the face of the program. Because when you combine talent, toughness, leadership, and a willingness to learn, you get something different. And whenever his number is called… Legacy isn’t far behind.
