Which SEC program deserves the label of Quarterback U? [SDS]

3. Florida (Draft Picks: Danny Wuerffel, Jesse Palmer, Rex Grossman, Tim Tebow) — Steve Spurrier coached three of these guys, all pocket passers, but the headliner was Tebow, the Gators’ courageous leader in the late 2000s who won two national titles and a Heisman during his career under Urban Meyer as a dual-threat playmaker … Spurrier’s personal favorite was Fun-N-Gun facilitator Wuerffel, a 1996 Heisman winner and national champion … Grossman was a consensus All-American in 2001 and nearly won the bronze statue.

2. LSU: (Draft Picks: Josh Booty, Craig Nall, Rohan Davey, Matt Mauck, JaMarcus Russell, Matt Flynn, Zach Mettenberger) — LSU’s seven draft picks at the position is the most at any SEC program since 1989, but several were non-factors at the next level … Nall was a career second-teamer for the Tigers and accounted for five times as many pro touchdown passes (5) than his total in college … Mauck’s legacy was a 2003 national title and his No. 18 jersey now being part of tradition, worn annually by LSU’s best representative of the program on and off the field … Russell, a former No. 1 overall pick in 2007 who won 21 games in 25 starts at LSU, is considered one of the biggest Draft busts of all-time … Mettenberger’s the only quarterback in school history to throw for 2,500 or more yards in back-to-back seasons … He was drafted in the sixth round by Tennessee in 2014.

1. Georgia (Draft Picks: Eric Zeier, Quincy Carter, David Greene, D.J. Shockley, Matt Stafford, Aaron Murray) — Greene won the SEC Championship in 2002 and graduated as the winningest quarterback in Division I history with 42 wins over a four-year span … That record was later broken by Colt McCoy at Texas … Stafford was the Detroit Lions’ No. 1 overall pick in 2009 and is one of four NFL quarterbacks to throw for more than 5,000 yards in a single season … Murray, the SEC’s all-time leading passer and four-year starter, tossed a 43-yard touchdown pass on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers for his first NFL completion … In three seasons with the Dallas Cowboys (2001-03), Carter threw for 5,839 yards with 29 touchdowns in 31 starts.
