That being said, if Jordan was 6'2", he would have been a mid-to-high 4* based on his performance his senior year. Just my opinion.
The top QB this year, Bryce Young, is 5'11 185 lbs...roughly the same size as Jordan Yates out of HS. EVERYONE recruited him (signed with 'Bama).
I'm not denigrating Yates, but the point is, if Yates was all that and a bag of chips coming out of HS, he would have gotten more attention from P5 schools. Trust me, his QB coach Quincy Avery tried pretty hard to get Yates recruited to go to any other school not named Georgia Tech. I'm glad to have Yates, and I'm really high on his potential (refer to my comments in his recruiting thread), but Yates was rated where he deserved to be coming out of HS.
