James Banks - Tennessee
Xavier Lee - Florida State
Matthew Tuiasosopo - Washington

thats a nice list. i just hope shep turns out to be the college version of vince young. not the mental nfl version

I'd say, in terms of talent, that's a pretty accurately rated 5 star list, wouldn't ya'll agree? Lee is the main question I have........not sure exactly how much Jeff Bowden and the Florida State Dark Ages effected him.

you did leave a pretty big name off the list. he's the only qb to win 4 bowl games as a starter-Pat White

people forget what sort of intangibles it takes to be a successful QB
of this talented cast above, many on that list failed because they could not develop mentally
Shepard reminds me of Tebow in terms of his work ethic, leadership, competitive will, intelligence, awareness on the field, etc... not many of that list of 5-stars above have/had all of those intangibles

No, he didn't. He made a list of 5* QBs. Not 3* athletes.

Ben Olsen
Trent Edwards
Kyle Wright
Rhett Bomar
Anthony Morelli

didn't Schaeffer get a 5 star before he transferred to Ole Miss from JUCO?

I don't know- I got that list straight from Rivals.

True...but the list above are all High School guys. He was a 4 star coming out of HS.

How is Newton a bust? He's only a sophomore and he's behind Tebow. Is he off the team or something?

only three on that list were a bust imo. Newton and shepard have yet to prove themselves though. Bodes well for shepard imo.

I may be mis-remembering, but didn't we offer Pat White, he accept, and then he decommitted?
