The Cardinal program is simply cleaning up with the game's most important players
With the recent verbal commitment of Alabama rising junior Jack West, Stanford secured its fourth elite quarterback commit since the 2014 recruiting cycle.
The jewel of that class was Keller Chryst, a 6'4" howitzer whom it now seems appropriate to call the prototypical Stanford quarterback. He was followed by fellow 4-star KJ Costello in the 2016 class, newly anointed 5-star Davis Mills in 2017, and now West in 2018. All four are over 6'2" and only Mills weighed under 200 pounds at the time of his commitment.
