Was the reason that HR not in the E11 comp due to the injuries during the camp run. I'm sure it's been discussed ad nauseum, but please humor me. I've been following the show and just weird I haven't seen mention of him. Could have missed it though...

We don't know for sure. The Oakland camp was may May 18. Vegas one was June 16. So he probably was relatively healthy by then. Maybe he was out of town, maybe he didn't want to go. Doesn't really matter.

He got his scholly, accepted it and is happy with his choice to attend LSU. Whats the need to keep applying for jobs?

The E11 is much more than an audition. It's a pure competition. Watch the show, it's very good.

I understand he can learn and showcase his skills, but he did just play or is playing in 7v7 tourney. It seems like some of yall want to say hes not at the elite 11 so hes not good enough.

I asked this question a week ago .... found out he siad he didnt even want to try out. He said he was more concerned with his teams 7 on 7 this summer and keeping his knee healthy. Plus he is in summer school right now adding extra classes to be able to graduate early and be with LSU in January.

This is the best QB class we've had since Flynn/Jamarcus. Very excited about Rettig and Jennings.

It a competition/audition for HS player to get the attention a major FB programs. I agree the film is good but it not mini camp or a QB camp it competition between other QB to see who is the best passer without 11 guys coming at you trying to rip your head off. I bet there is very little tutelage going on trying to fix a kids mechanics.

Why? Dude knows his shite and oh yeah managed to last over a decade in the NFL. I'd say pretty much anyone would take that carter. He wasn't an all pro so he probably doesn't know shite huh? Sean Payton is doing alright as a qb guru for a guy who could only make it for a few games as a replacement player wouldn't you say?

Then you are foolish. Trent Dilfer knows more about how to play quarterback than damn near anyone. Just because he couldn't execute it as well as many others doesn't mean he didn't know what he was supposed to do.

I was just responding to the question of why he would go if he's already committed. I think he's unequivocally a top 10 QB nationally. Probably higher than that.
