I think he's better than that

The very top of the FCS might be better than Pyne, but by the same token the Top FCS QBs are also likely better than the FBS Mid-Majors, and some of the FBS Power 5 starters, if we are using the NFL draft as a barometer of QB talent.

Pyne will have plenty of FBS suitors, several of whom he can lead to a winning record.

Clearly he does not have the physical tools of a 4-star QB but it is curious that not just ND and the recruiting services were in error in their assessment.

His performance against USC was comparable to UCLA's QB without the benefit of a USC turnover.

So while Pyne may have benefitted from the other ND talent around him, he also faced a detriment in the offensive scheme under which he operated.
