Why is Notre Dame’s Jordan Faison being disrespected like this?

class="wp-block-paragraph">On3’s JD Pickell gave his list for the top 10 QB/WR duos entering the college football season, and he has Notre Dame’s pair at No. 5 with CJ Carr and Mylan Graham.

Jordan Faison

I think Mylan Graham is going to have a really good season and a great career at Notre Dame, but why is Jordan Faison being overlooked. What did he ever do to deserve this kind of disrespect?

View LinkHonestly, this is just another case of recruiting rankings influencing what people see. If Jordan Faison was a 5-Star WR going out of Fort Wayne instead of a national champion lacrosse player that walked on to one of the elite programs in the country, he would have made the dumb Pickell list.
