But again, it's only a decade or so between NFL QBs for the state, even if Minshew makes it.

There's a reason most of the NFL players in MS are defenders or linemen and RBs. High school offenses are so far behind that WRs and QBs don't develop worth a damn outside of the very exceptional case.
DK Metcalf ring a bell? Those are just the tip of the ice berg. How about guys like Jamarcus Bradley that went to Sun Belt teams and are better than what we have been recruiting? Arkansas State has another. And let's ignore the two four star receivers we have committed right now that are out of state guys.
