If we're talking about offer lists. On Olsen's 247 page, he claims offers from the following mid-major programs:
Florida State
Florida
Stanford
Michigan
Auburn
Arkansas (when Bobby Petrino the offensive savant was there)
By no means am I saying that he's Matt Barkley or Jimmy Clausen coming out of high school, but he's a consensus Top 5, Pro-Style QB.
Being a Top 5 QB in the entire country qualifies him as a blue chip QB prospect. JMHO
If by "consensus" you mean being in the top 5 of Scout but #12 on Rivals and #7 on 247, OK.
He's an excellent QB prospect with all the intangibles in the world but he is not a blue-chip kid. Luckily QB is insanely hard to predict and nobody would have predicted Stephen Morris re-writing Miami record books.
Consensus meaning his composite rating on 247, which encompasses the rankings of all the reputable recruiting sites, is the #5 QB.
On the 5 major sites (ESPN, Rivals, 247, Max Preps, and Scout) alone, he's 4, 5, 6, 7, and 12 in the QB rankings.
No, that is not what consensus means.
