It’s been a while since the state of the quarterback position in Texas was so strong. Six different incumbent starters have a case for top 30 nationally, and several other programs are on the upswing at the position.

There are dozens of factors you can take into account to rank quarterbacks. Sample size is a significant metric, and pushed some talented underclassmen down the list. Raw numbers are valuable, but will be contextualized. Playing in a quicker or more prolific offense helps your case, but won't be the deciding factor. Value is at the forefront of the list, both on and off the field. 

To be clear, this is not a simple ranking of how these players performed in 2018. The situations – coaching staff, scheme, weapons – changed for multiple incumbent starters. This list is purely forward-looking. 

Here’s our ranking of all 12 projected starting quarterbacks at the FBS schools in Texas after the conclusion of spring camp. We've split the group up into four tiers. Please note, multiple quarterback competitions are still open, so this list could look very different by September.
