absence of Louisiana high school QBs at LSU

Over the Saban and Miles years, almost all of the QBs have been from out of state. This includes Davey, Mauck, Russell, Flynn, Lee, and Mett.
The two exceptions are (cough, cough) Jefferson and Perriloux. Is this because of Louisiana high schools run simplistic offenses compared to Texas and California? Some other reason? What gives?
Seems like LSU should get any Louisiana QB they want whose last name isn't Manning.

Maybe Louisiana hasn't had a lot of really good QBs

Many schools put their best athlete at qb, thats part of the issue, the other part is there are very few good high school qb coaches in the state

Most kids that play QB in Louisiana end up playing WR or RB in college.

quote:we pretty much do. there's not a whole lot of BCS schools with Louisiana recruits at QB setting the world on fire.

I think a lot of people who would be QBs end up playing baseball

Like others have said, la schools put athletes there. Hence when Jai Eugene played qb in high school his senior year

All Louisiana HS QB's smoke dope. Fact.

la very rarely produces a great qbs when compared to the other positions.

What's amazing to me is that Drew Brees is the only QB from the state of Texas to have ever won a Super Bowl.

Nah dude, its easy to recruit LA. Any coach can win here even though our state doesn't produce the most important player on the field.

The biggest factor is the offenses of LA high schools! LA schools run a lot of Wing-T, veer, triple option concepts! You see a few teams that spread you out, but even most of those spread you out to run it. Very few offensive systems in the state have any sort of complex passing games, mostly just chunk it to me bruh and tunnel screens.

The schemes do not lend to Pro style learning at the HS level in too many cases. Sure, there are some exceptions, but too often the LA HS coaches rely on the speed of a tuck-and-run athletic QB, or on 4-5 speedy receivers, neither of which allow the development of pocket presence and field vision.
