Simply not true. People believe in Nuss and also realize the next men behind him are Rickie Collins and a true Freshman. It does make sense to bring in someone with some level of playing time to be a backup and there if something happens to Nuss and to "challenge" him.

This is one of those unseen areas where House's shitty defense really hurt LSU. By almost never being able to put a game away due to the defense, Nuss and Collins got very little playing time.

The only way to get better and find out what you have is to play. With so few game reps, even Nuss appeared to take a step back this season.

TBH, bringing in a QB to be Nuss' backup is only going to hurt Collins' development. From what I remember, the kid has skills, but those skills won't be developed if he is instantly relegated to 3rd string again because Kelly brings in some transfer with experience. We can't keep bringing in guys from other schools at the expense of the guys already here. Doing so only keeps us chasing our tails and watching talented guys hit the portal.

Why? I mean, the guys been here for a number of years and what exactly has he done that should make me believe in him? I want to, but why should I?

I guess we’ll see if coach goes after another quarterback as a transfer. I’d like to see a guy who’s paid his dues and been faithful to LSU get his due and hopefully he will.
