That's it. The Big XII hasn't really put out any stud QB prospects.

First off I never insinuated that Air Raid/Spread QBs could never make it in the NFL, BUT if they were going to make that successful transition they had to have particular traits and be fortunate enough to land with a team that knows how to develop QBs. If you haven't already, read my post 8365.
That was my point that the Big XII hasn't lit the NFL up whatsoever except for a one and done year from RGIII. Yes his injury didn't help matters but he healed and then got exposed for his lack of "being a complete student of the game." Sam Bradford sooooooooo overrated and a very rich one at that, that IMHO is not deserved. Made of glass or not he has not performed PERIOD. Vince Young did not want to be a "complete student of the game" and got exposed.
Like I said, I think Mahomes potentially has a good chance to fill that Big 12 vacuum of being the first Big 12 stud in the NFL.
