The 5-foot-11 quarterback has visited Kentucky several times and the Wildcat coaching staff didn't seem to have concerns about his height.

Scalzo has been said to have "Johnny Manziel-type qualities," according to some scouts who are most familiar with his game through high school action and camps.

Louisiana, UNLV, Akron and Tulane had offered Scalzo over the previous month. Ivy League schools and Boston College had previously been involved with him.
