Not all frosh are created equal.  Some high school programs run spread and simple offenses and some run complex pro style offenses. Some highly rated high school QBs are highly rated due to their superior athleticism and arm strength and some are highly rated due to their cerebral nature and ability to make good quick decisions. Some QBs have professional coaches and years of training before stepping on campus.  I don't know where Mills stands but Rosen was certainly capable running an offense as a freshman and not just UCLA's offense.  The premise that no frosh could ever start at QB for Stanford is ludicrous.  Not many can but there are exceptions. We may have one.
