Not really sure how Bucky isn't on your list. No idea why Mond is on your list right now.

I might put Brandon Stewart on that list in place of Mond right now. He did lead us to our last conference Championship.

Could possibly substitute Dobbs somewhere on the list...just not sure where.


I would say put bray in there as well, dude slung the ball all over the place while he was here. Just gets forgotten because of dooley and our horrendous defense.

Talent-wise, Success, or how they impacted the program? Because those kind of change the rankings a bit for us. I'm taking "what they meant to the program" as my main indicator.


Missouri:

1. Brad Smith - Pretty much recognized as the guy who brought us from obscurity to respectable in the modern age
2. Chase Daniel - Most Successful. Could put #1 easily, and I'd be fine with that.
3. Drew Lock - I think we will look back at Drew staying and rebuilding the program after 2015 very favorably.
4. Phil Bradley - Athletic freak who raised the level of Mizzou in the late 70's. Quite the baseball dual sport athlete as well.
5. Paul Christman - Led the way at the end of Don Faurot's Mizzou career (late 1930's). Pretty successful NFL career too.
6. Corby Jones - The Brad Smith before Brad Smith. Bonus points for being teammate to Barry Odom.
7. Blaine Gabbert - One of the two most talented (arm-wise) ever with Drew Lock. One of the biggest recruiting flips ever over Nebraska. After his Elite 11 MVP, that was a big deal. Had some of the best wins in program history, including 2010 Homecoming over #1 Oklahoma.
8. Maty Mauk - Co-Starter/4 game Injury Fill-In in 2013 for the first East title as a Freshman. Followed up with another in 2014. Off field issues kept him from reaching higher. Could have been a Top 4 guy.
9. Terry McMillan - Led at the height of the Dan Devine era (late 60s). Worthy inclusion despite not getting lots of attention.
10. James Franklin - Technically the starter in 2013, but injuries and QB rotation system made him more like a Co-Starter. Nonetheless, the JFrankTank did help win the first East title.

1.. Aaron Murray (10-13) - Holds virtually every passing record at UGA and quite a few SEC records

2. David Greene (01-04) - All time winningest QB at UGA

3. John Rauch (45-48) - CFB Hall of Famer and first college QB to ever pass for over 4000 yards

4. Zeke Bratkowski (50-52) - 2x All American

5.Eric Zeier (91-94) - Was Murray before Murray, managed to shatter records while on some really bad teams

6. Fran Tarkenton (58-60) - CFB Hall of Famer, likely considered more famous for NFL Days

7. Matt Stafford (06-08) - #1 Overall Pick, likely higher on this list of had 4 years under his belt

8. Buck Belue (78-81) - Great athlete, decent QB. Has a natty to his name and orchestrated the greatest play in UGA history

9. Jake Fromm (17-present) - only 2 years in, he’s likely going to move up a couple of spots depending on how long he stays in Athens

10. DJ Shockley (02-05) - You’ll never see another player like DJ with the transfer portal now in existence. 5* QB played change of pace to Greene until he got his full shot in 05 when he won the SEC. Likely could have won even more if not for a leg injury in the middle of the year.

I took Belue out... he might make top 10, but it's probably at the bottom. He was obviously a winner, but pretty meh numbers make it difficult to squeeze him in a list of best QBs ever.

Other QBs that likely need consideration:
Eric Zeier
Zeke Bratkowski - Held NCAA career passing record for about a decade
John Rauch - 1948 SEC POTY and First Team All American, CFBHOF inductee, Orange Bowl and SEC Title in 48 (36-8-1 record as a starting QB)

With those guys in the mix, would throw Belue in at the bottom?

(btw this order is not ranked)

Of course by the time I finish making tweaks at the end of my call, you've already made an updated list that included the same players.



I don't hate your rankings here. I think it's fair to say Fromm > Belue as a QB... Like if I was picking a team, I'd take Fromm 11/10 times. Same for Shockley. That's ultimately why I'd have Belue at the bottom... But I understand moving him up for being at the helm for the Natty also.
