Does history indicate it is harder to win with a Junior College transfer at QB?

Below are the Junior College quarterbacks from the years 2002 until 2013...

2002 Class: LINK
2003 Class: LINK
2004 Class: LINK
2005 Class: LINK
2006 Class: LINK
2007 Class: LINK
2008 Class: LINK
2009 Class: LINK
2010 Class: LINK
2011 Class: LINK
2012 Class: LINK
2013 Class: LINK

We obviously have some talented quarterbacks coming out of the Junior College ranks that played for some big-time programs. Guys like Bo Wallace, Nick Marshall, Cam Newton, Zach Mettenberger, Randall Mackey, Jeremiah Masoli, Colt Brennan, Tyson Lee, Chris Todd, Zac Lee, Brent Shaeffer, Aaron Rodgers, and so forth...

My question is, how many Junior College quarterbacks, as of late, have played/started in National Championship games? I know the lists only go back to 2002, but you can bring up others that were before the time of said recruiting lists.

I know Gus Malzahn has lead two different Auburn teams to the National Championship with Junior College quarterbacks, with Cam Newton (2010) and Nick Marshall (2013).

Oh, you think Gene Chizik had more of a hand in that championship team? Not Gus Malzahn's explosive and dominating offense? Lead by one of the best college football players ever?

Coming from the guy that defended Chizik and wanted to get rid of Gus just a few years ago.

It's been 10 years since Ole Miss had a starting quarterback that wasn't a transfer.

Just tell us your previous username, and explain why you bolded only four players.
