Hopefully we will see some great Louisiana high school qbs who are SEC material. I think there has been a shortage in that area, which has had an impact on our offensive production. And the reality is that it is tough to recruit top QBs to schools outside of their home states. Not impossible, but tough. Most of the great HS QBs today, not all, seem to stay close to home, and we haven't seemed to have had one in a while in Lousiana. We will see what is going to happen.


Chicken or the egg. I think that talented qbs were and are recruited, but Miles and co. has handcuffed them and not developed them effectively, but there is no way to prove either side of this argument. I remain optimistic, however, that we were more aggressive towards the end of the season and hopefully we have gotten over our tendency to play scared on offense and appear less capable than our players are, but again, that's just my opinion and how I've interpreted what I've seen.

Totally agree. I think LSU has recruited well in the QB position but has developed them very poorly. Looked like Mettenberger actually regressed this year before stepping up at the end of the season.
