The one that had Tommy Rees and not Lane Kiffin. Which is B

Full context answer, if this is Freshman Hurts, Milroe, Sims, I generally think Sims was the one who could facilitate the best offense. He played most like a pocket passer that just so happened to be a good athlete. His tendencies were least likely to actually hurt the passing game

All three were in the playoffs in their first year, and likely were just a few plays going a different way from eventually winning a title.

You got it.

QB1 is Hurts
QB2 is Milroe
QB3 is Sims

Just thought it was an interesting look at the raw numbers.Very similar stat lines, but very different teams. I do think Milroe probably was on the worst team with the worst coordinators.

The other QB's first years since Sims:

Jake Coker (Title)
66.9% comp
3110 yards
21 TD
8 INT
68 yds rushing
2 TD

Tua (Technically his first full year)
69.0% comp
3966 yards
43 TD
6 INT
190 yds rushing
5 TD

Mac Jones (Title)
77.4% comp
4500 yards
41 TD
3 INT
14 yds rushing
1 TD

Bryce Young
66.9% comp
4872 yards
47 TD
7 INT
0 yds rushing
3 TD
