I can see how The Bluebloods would assume Kollock will start -- they're completely wrong in stating that '4 starting offensive linemen' return, we all know that's not true, so I think they're misinformed a bit. Looks like a full on battle at QB to start.

I like the Ags getting some hype, but I think it's a bit premature to pencil Kollock in as the starter let alone as a Jerry Rice favorite. He certainly comes with an outstanding pedigree, size, and athleticism, but we have no idea how it will translate to the college game.

I’ve only paid attention to college recruiting for a few years, inspired by your lists, but thats long enough to be skeptical about HS player rankings. Some of out best recruits have been highly rated, while some other highly rated players never play. The ratings are too influenced by whether a player has pro dimensions, which very weakly correlates to college performance. Whichever QB Plough choses is going to have the spotlight and they’re both redshirt freshmen, so have a good shot at freshmen awards.

yep I agree for the most part especially when we are talking about 3 star recruits. It's mostly a crap shoot at that level. Once you are talking about 4 and 5 star guys it's getting more reliable, but still definitely not perfect.
