Even those programs only bring in a 5* QB every second season. Among the programs you listed, OSU is the only one who has landed 5* QBs in back-to-back classes.


Bama brought in Bryce Young in the 2020 class, then followed that up in 2021 with Jalen Milroe, a 4* who is considered a developmental project (albeit with a high ceiling). In 2022, they jumped back into the 5* QB market and landed Ty Simpson.


Clemson brought in Trevor in 2018, followed by a developmental guy (Taisun Phommachanh) in 2019, and their next stud didn't come til 2020, in DJ Uiagalelei. In 2021, they basically skipped out on QB altogether, with their only commit at the position being a 3* backup type. After taking 2021 off, they got back into the 5* QB recruiting game in 2022, pushing *hard* for (and missing) Ty Simpson.



Oklahoma landed Spencer Rattler, the QB1 of his class, in 2019, then essentially took the 2020 cycle off in terms of QB recruiting (the only QB commit of that year being a 3*), before coming back and landing Caleb Williams in the 2021 class.



Even the programs that are capable of landing 5* QBs with regularity don't bring one in every year.
