Not all 5 star QBs

Have what it takes.

Lots of busts, but the good ones tend to be really good.

Yup. Beat out by the 3 star coach of the Bengals.

Who took a beating at NU from getting sacked or hit so often. He was the Rocky Balboa of quarterbacks.

He was a warrior. Him and pork chop. Cory Ross.

We’ve had some major busts with 4* qbs. Let’s hope our 5* is different.

So far it's almost unreal regarding Dylan. I haven't heard ANY negatives mentioned yet unless I missed something. Usually there's always something mentioned for a true freshman and especially a QB. Guess we'll see if that's real in a couple of weeks.

He's a true student of the game. Will he make some freshman mistakes? Sure. But he will learn and improve as he gets the reps and experience.

Here's the list of our 4* (per Rivals) QB recruits over the last 20 years. Not exactly the Mt Rushmore of Husker QBs. Taylor Martinez, who I don't think was even technically classified as a QB recruit beat out 3 of these guys (Lee, Green, and Carnes).

Harrison Beck
Zac Lee
Cody Green
Brion Carnes
Bubba Starling
Jamal Turner
Patrick O'Brien
Tristan Gebbia
Adrian Martinez
Logan Smothers

If they had NIL back then he could have made a fortune by putting his image on one of those blow up punching dolls that every time you hit it, it bounced back up.

I remember brainlets saying him leaving was evidence that Lincoln Riley had lost the locker room

Maybe the guy who has coached 4 heisman candidates knows what he’s doing with QBs after all

Maddux Madsen is a 5*+ QB name

I'll see your Maddux Madsen and raise you a Jaxson Dart

I started putting a list together myself, but got too depressed and quit. Sad our 3* have vastly outperformed 4*

 

[huntered]

wonder how many 3 stars we have had who have not performed too well?

Ganz
Taylor
TMart
Armstrong

around one every 5 years. different strengths and styles. one thing in common to me is that they were all tough as hell. lets hope we have another one.

Is Adrian actually garbage or was Frost just that bad?

IMO the biggest thing some physically gifted high school QBs lack is the mental capacity to succeed in college. It can be mental toughness or the ability to quickly process information. Some are just plain lazy.

Frost AND Harry Potter were bad.
