I am curious what makes you think that. If you go off quarterback rating, Nunes ranks 102 out of 124 quarterbacks. That puts him in the bottom quartile. While his wide receivers are clearly subpar, he has the benefit of above-average pass protection and a pair of quality tight ends.

If you compare him to other Pac 12 quarterbacks, he is probably in the bottom quartile. ASU, Arizona, UCLA, USC, Cal, Washington, Oregon and Oregon State clearly hae better quarterbacks. I haven't watched enough of WSU, Utah and Colorado to make that comparison.
I can't think of many division 1 FBS programs where he would start.
