I looked it up and all of Auburn's qbs in the last few years were "dual-threat" in highschool.

That's correct. Jeremy Johnson & Sean White were pro-style QBs. Stidham and Nix were both "dual-threat". BUT, their style of dual-threat is a far cry from Cam or Nick Marshall.

I mean, was Sean not in that same category of very mobile/accurate passer? I feel like we have a hard time categorizing white dual threat guys because so often "dual threat" in HS becomes pretty much pro style in college (by physical necessity).

A lot of us still aren't convinced Nix will remain a DT by any stretch of the term, although I'm certainly hoping he's able to do so.

ETA - just looked and maybe you're right (on White being only pro-style).
