can't predict who will succeed at the next level. There is maybe one can't miss prospect per year on average and then it becomes a guessing game.

The list of 4 and 5 star recruits at QB who flop is quite shocking.

QB recruiting since Lavell

What this tells me is the next great BYU quarterback might be on our roster, and

AROD has whiffed on plenty of talented QBs.

VB2

Which ones did he whiff on that turned out to be a great QB?

Are you saying we are not good at developing the QB at BYU?

I think you are right. Star rating is not a preview of things to come. Does such

Stewart was not a great QB.

kimdaddy35

Apr 30, 12:16pm

Agree, but belongs in the top 6 since 2002

Wasn't Mangum's freshman year better than Stewart's?

kimdaddy35

Apr 30, 12:19pm

The stats aren't super far apart, but Mangum did have better receivers

donnerstag

Apr 30, 12:26pm

He didn't call him great. He said he was one of the 6 best since Lavell.

Rise Against

He was decent, but doesn't belong with the others listed

Why go with 6 if it includes Stewart? Just go with 5. Huge divide after that.

Stewart is still a good case study that recruit rankings don’t matter

donnerstag

If we have a Stewart as our QB in the Big 12 we are in big trouble

kimdaddy35

Apr 30, 1:10pm

Perhaps. He did well against a light schedule and saved a season from disaster

donnerstag

Apr 30, 1:20pm

I don't disagree. He played his role well. He just would never have been a good

kimdaddy35

Apr 30, 1:22pm

If we're being fair, there is a clear top 4 then a gap to Taysom and another gap

donnerstag

That is some interesting data right there

Gadzooks, that’s a lotta homework. 👍

Wilson, Hill and both Halls were more highly recruited than the QBs currently

Facts Matter

Hall and Taysom actually signed with other schools

donnerstag

Apr 30, 2:27pm

I am saying you missed Zach signing out of HS with Boise St.

ghettomagic

Apr 30, 2:31pm

He didn't sign. He only committed. Big difference.

Rise Against

Apr 30, 2:38pm

Umm. I think your facts are wrong

Thats some quality data

Depending on how you count Heaps, BYU has had a future NFL QB on roster since

NYC and Japan

Apr 30, 11:11pm

Heaps was not an NFL QB. But 2006 had one who was drafted in the top 40

kimdaddy35

Apr 30, 11:15pm

Heaps was paid by NFL teams 3 years on practice squads, etc.

NYC and Japan

Apr 30, 11:20pm

I'm aware, but if you don't ever make an NFL team it is hard for me to call you
