Each week, GigEmNation reporter Sam Khan Jr. will bring you five things he learned from watching high school football action in the Midlands region that week, including observations of Texas A&M commitments and targets and other players that catch his attention. Here's this week's installment:

1. Allen (Texas) High School 2015 quarterback Kyler Murray is a well-rounded talent. Son of former Texas A&M quarterback Kevin Murray, Kyler has a lot of appealing traits. One of the first that strikes you is his speed and elusiveness. He chewed up 122 rushing yards and scored two touchdowns on 21 carries in Allen's 37-17 win over talented Dallas Skyline in the Class 5A Division I quarterfinals. Murray wasn't his best as a passer on Saturday, but he showed arm strength, good touch on his deep passes and the ability to thread the needle, finding receivers in coverage. He's shorter than your ideal college quarterback (5-foot-11) but he just turned 15 and has time to grow.
