[QUOTE="froginmn, post: 3261315, member: 67577"] Yes but in talking about Drake Maye, who DID start games when UNC was ranked, you discount that because UNC didn't finish the season ranked. So you have a completely asinine set of requirements: Freshman QB must play for a team that finished the season ranked Must have started a game or games at the time they were ranked Must not have come in as a highly rated prospect Despite being classified as a redshirt freshman, can't have been on a 2020 roster (because that year was apparently very productive) When you set all of those weird parameters, yes there are a limited number of guys who qualify. The strangest thing is that you've set up all of these convoluted rules to "prove" that Josh Hoover isn't ready to lead a top 25 TCU, which is a point that exactly nobody would argue. Everyone on this board believes that our staff isn't dumb enough to have only Morris and Hoover on the depth chart and that they'll bring in a transfer with potential to start if need be. But if you're trying to argue that freshmen aren't ready to play, that pendulum has swung in the other direction due to HS camps and position-specific coaching. There are plenty of QB's starting as freshmen; you'll see them if you stop trying not to (Caleb Williams, Jaxson Dart, Seth Henigan, Tyler Buchner, JJ McCarthy, Athan Kaliakmanis, Dillon Gabriel,.......).
