If that’s the case numb nuts then why did he beg Myles not to transfer! I swear y’all people are something else!

Because they didn't have Daniels yet and you couldn't go into the season with a redshirt freshman and true freshman at quarterback.

He challenged Myles and told him he would have the opportunity to compete. Given Myles previous experience with LSU, he was the front runner going in. Myles eventually quit because his heart wasn't in it and he wasn't a good fit for the new systems being implemented.

You can spin your own narrative all you want, but those are the facts.

You’re the one that’s something else. Is it better to have daniels, Myles, Nuss, and Howard or daniels, Nuss, and Howard.

When Kelly took the job Brennan was already in the portal. Johnson would enter it shortly thereafter. And Nussmeier had already decided to sit the rest of the season, including the bowl game where he would have started, in order to preserve his redshirt and keep all options open in the event he wanted to transfer elsewhere in light of the fact the staff that had recruited him to LSU was now gone. Also, Daniels was NOT in the portal at that time. So, essentially, BK was having to recruit a QB for this year's team. Brennan had not transferred elsewhere yet, and given his long ties to Louisiana and the LSU program, he seemed like the most logical place to start that recruitment.

Brennan ultimately decided to stay. As did Nussmeier. LSU was probably prepared to go forward with those two and Howard...until a 3 year starter at ASU (Daniels) entered the portal. He presented something to Kelly that wasn't available when Kelly initially recruiting Brennan to stay. Significantly more experience than any other QB on LSU's roster, as well as a running threat. So Kelly brought him in. Had Daniels been in the portal when Kelly got the job it's possible (maybe likely) he never tries to get Brennan to stay at LSU.

He talked MB into staying when he first got here.

Through spring ball he started to realize MB’s priorities were changing and OLine wasn’t there yet

Insert JD5

It’s not that hard to understand

Because we didn't have JD at the time he talked Brennan to come back.

Brennan was only a means to an end for BK.
Once Jayden transferred here he had no use for Brennan anymore.
