In reply to: By my quick count there are 8 QB starters that might not posted by cards86
HS quarterbacks are often throwing to receivers open by 3 steps. Tighter windows, closing speed of the defensive backs, and more sophisticated defenses may trump raw talent.
Typically college QBs face a better rush, which also forces quicker decision making
The ability to read defenses both before and after snap is key to later success, but less so in HS.
QBs who are 5* in HS have raw physical talent and success against lesser opposition.
