It's frustrating to see QBs develop and flourish at various schools. QBs that weren't highly recruited or even recruited at all.
Highly recruited and decorated QBs come to ND just to fizzle out. Smh.
When will someone that matters see this trend and demand better?

Zaire is 6' 1"
Wimbush is nearly 6' 2"
Drew Brees is considered a short QB. If you are good you are good. At some point the light bulb has to come on.

Height is a HUGE part of that equation and no 5-11 guy fibbed to 6-1 is ever at the top.
3 under 6'2 = 2/3 (wilson, brees) have been great. Taylor so/so 67%
6 at 6'2" = 2/6 above average (rodgers, dalton). 1 good but not enough years (prescott) and 1 good in spot duties (fitz). I'll give you 3/6 = 50%
6 at 6'3" = 3/5 above average (cousins, stafford, i'll give you a coinflip on cutler and carr) cutler was bad but played along time. Carr is up and coming but not over the hump. = 60%
10 at 6'4 = 5/10 (ryan, smith, brady and i'll give you luck and eli) but eli is bad. Goff too young and winston / mariota unproven. Even if you take goff it's 6/10 = 50 or 60%
6 at 6'5 = 5/6 (palmer, newton, wentz, rivers, rothlisberger) = 83%
1 at 6'6 = Flacco = cointoss if he's good or not. 1 at 6'8 = Osweiler and he was terrible. Let's call this the over 6'5 club and that is 1/2 or 50%
Looks to me like you want someone under 6' or at 6'5 and no taller. No conclusive evidence that height makes difference unless you are in the middle of the pack and the odds don't favor you selecting good qb in the 6'2 to 6'4 range.

Tied Manning's rookie record for TDs. Won a Super Bowl.

Your 1 in 400,000,000 guy actually thinks Baker could be better than him.

You are missing the point. Obviously you don't care.
Being 6' 3", in no way, means a QB will be better than a 6 ft counterpart.

Knowledge of the offense. Arm strength. Passing accuracy. Ability to read defenses. Going through progressions. Etc etc etc.
You are flat wrong to argue that only tall QBs are good QBs.

He obviously doesn't develop QBs in college. He gets who he can get. He has gotten highly rated QBs for the most part though. He just doesn't know what to do with them.
