Better than I thought it would be. Of the top 10 QBs each year in the pro and dual threat they are busts about 75% of the time I think.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

By the way, Shea Patterson is the real deal.

 

[InstiGATOR1]

By the way, Shea Patterson is the real deal.

Oh so that settle it ? That 121.0 QB rating is no concern at all? Of course that was against that murders row of aTm, Vandy and Mississippi State.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Yup. Wait and see, grasshopper.

Dont act like you would die for a 120 passer with some talent right now.

 

[Durty South Swamp]

Patterson is indeed, a special player. Very impressive.

 

[T REX]

Looks like we are due for a 5 star though...

 

[GR8 2B]

That list is eye-opening.

A lot of busts along the way but I've watched the film on this kid Fields, and he is impressive, especially throwing the ball. I wish I could say I'm optimistic Mac and crew can get him to Florida. Maybe we can get him later on a transfer.

 

[TheDouglas78]

If I counted correctly, only 5 National Titles (in games started) among them. Coaches need talent, and talent needs coaches.

Wasn't Driskel a 5 star?

No

The dual threat QBs as starters have produced 3 Heisman winners and 4 National Championships from the 2006 to 2014 classes. Pretty impressive

Actually all 5 are from the dual threat list.

 

[Gator Fever]

Actually all 5 are from the dual threat list.

And Vince Young and Watson are probably the Heisman winners those years if the vote was after the Championship game.

 

[HauntedGator]

No

I thought he was the top QB in that year's class....no?

 

[Durty South Swamp]

if its a bad year, the top qb could be a 3*. Stars arent given out for how you peform against your peers. They are assigned against an industry baseline.
