I’m reaching way way back with this one but here goes. I think it was Coach Major’s 3 or 4.class so 79-80 I signed 7 quarterbacks.Yeah, that methodology doesn't work anymore without the threat of transfer rules. Gotta be honest with kids these days.

If I remember correctly only one actually played QB.
I remember reading that Majors felt most teams put their best athlete at QB so moving them wasn’t a big deal.Without looking, I remember we signed Randall Morris and Bobby King who both changed positions. Was Jeff Olslewski (sic) also in that same class? Can’t remember the others, Morris was a hoot and King was a great athlete that never really found a home. Alatorre may have been in that class too, but I know he was a JUCO.
Now, ask me about all the star RBs Majors signed in his first full class - those guys I remember.
Glenn Ford
Dennis Mahan
James Berry
Terry Daniels
I'm not into misleading recruits and wasting a scholarship on a guy who our coaching staff doesn't believe he can play DL. If he wants to play DL and we end up moving him to OL. He'll jump in the portal.
