BYU Football has had some real talent at quarterback through the years. Steve Young, Jim McMahon, and Ty Detmer were among the greatest ever to play the college game. With recent success in quarterback recruiting, including five-star QB Ryder Lyons, BYU seems to be reclaiming its old moniker of QBU.
Some more recent QBs to live the QBU legacy are Zach Wilson, Taysom Hill, Jaren Hall, and Tanner Mangum. BYU continues to pump out great quarterbacks, and every QB brings something new to the table. Some quarterbacks are good passers, others can run, and some can do both.
