This is a good thing for LSU. When is the last time we could say this?

I wonder how truthful he was being. It is definitely an easy excuse for him. Not that I would not have said that. Auburn is just a better fit for his skill set. he tore his ACL and could redshirt in college. if Franks leaves for draft after 2018, then LN could possibly have 3 years as the starter w/o Franks there.

It may be that they are afraid to compete against our coaching staff rather than against the other qbs

Auburn has depth too. He'll have to compete regardless of where he signs.

You're clearly a moron. Franks has been Cam's guy since the get go. Any recruit can see the writing on the wall. They all camp together, they see each others' skill sets. I take Narcisse chosing Auburn over LSU as a sign the Franks is legit. You have to remember, these kids ultimate goal isn't education, it's the NFL. If there is a guy in front of them that they see as a threat to that goal, as in potentially not playing till your senior year, they'll go elsewhere. There's a reason LSU isn't taking any other QBs for 2016 also. Franks is the real deal, recruits know it, coaches know it, fans who pay attention know it.

If one was the greatest QB ever I don't think they'd be sitting til their senior year.

Better match scheme wise, and probably a better Debth chart outlook.
Scheme fit is the major reason. Anybody saying depth chart doesn't know what they are talking about.
Sean White, Tyler Queen, and Tristan Wallace. This is a Gus Malzahn offense. While it doesn't really prepare you for the NFL, the QBs will more than likely excel in it.
White won the Elite 11 MVP and also looks like he would be able to start and play pretty well this year. Queen is a true freshman pro style QB that looked good this spring and he can run, as evidenced by his 1654 yards and 36 rushing TDs in 3 high school seasons. Wallace plays on a top Texas team, is in the 2016 class, and is pretty similar to Narcisse.
It's like playing at Baylor or Oregon or some of those other plug and play places. Unless your talent is just a cut above everybody else, you'll be waiting til your fifth year, transferring, or hoping someone ahead of you transfers. As of right now, he doesn't have the experience factor that Queen will have, White will have 2 more years of starting time if he wants, and Wallace is the same type of player, but will be a year ahead.
Maybe he actually was scared off by Franks as I remember the WR Blacknall (sp?), was scared off by the WR talent he saw down here when he came to camp. Ultimately though, I think scheme fit was the biggest factor.

Clearly.
Well lets see here. Cam comes to LSU making Head Coach money.
1. Mett has a big Sr season. Cam takes all the credit.
2. 3 QB's leave team leaving LSU 2 scholarship QB's for the entire season. A sophomore with 1 start and a true freshman.
3. He lands a 3 star left hander on the recruiting trail.
4. 2014 LSu runs out one of the absolute worst QB tandems in several years.
5. Chavis leaves- Something about why does the OC make more than me.
5. Franks commits- GO Cam GO

Mariota named started of Titans. There goes Cameron's only claim to fame. Stop with the bullshite. Lsu doesn't produce QB's

And Miles is quoted as saying "he doesn't have he chest to play at LSU"
After looking at Narcisse on film looks as if he has a strong arm, but his mechanics are not great. Yes mechanics can be taught but I "for one" am not that upset that he did not pick LSU. Obviously I would like to get all the top in-state talent and Narcisse is one of them along with a top national recruit. But I don't think he is the right fit in LSU's offensive scheme and he is not going to play any other positions. I hate for an SEC West foe who we play every year to be the team to pick up his commitment because it will be just more incentive for him to play well when they do play us. But I truly don't believe this is a player that we should worry about him getting away from LSU.

Mett was pitiful until Cameron wked out his kinks. Mett knows it and so does anyone with any knowledge. Stud the dud sure didn't develop him. Cameron is not to blame for last years offense. We had to run that's all we could do. Harris needed to sit for many reasons. Cam is actually fixing the qb situation. Harris (cams guy) will develop into a very good qb but again needed a year to learn and hit weight room. Franks and dinkleman on way. Purdue transfer will be solid. Barton said potential Sunday talent.

Harris(Cam's guy)
I think you must have forgotten who the head coach is, and just how huge and worthless his ego is. Within a day of reporting time , AJ will have all charges dropped and will be ready to take his job on the field. If you are a gambling man, and you are foolish enough to believe Harris will start, I am ready to bet a grand. Just leave me a post, and we'll meet somewhere, and post up the cash.

You guys seem to be awfully patient with Cam Cameron. I expected a bigger impact here already, especially on the recruiting trail and with play calling. I thought we were going to score 50 a game with all this talent and a "real" coordinator. I thought OOS QB's would be way more interested in the program at this point.
If Miles and Stud wouldve ran that offense out there last yr, this place wouldve been all over the both of them.
Some of u are still blaming Miles for the offense but refrain from any, like zero, criticism toward one of the highest paid OC's in the country. I wont even try to make heads or tails out of that thinking.
Not a bit of criticism to a guy making, way more $ than Stud, who was also doubling as the OL coach? Couldve kept Chavis with fat Stud, but time will tell on this change. Another discussion for another day.
Im hopeful, he can get things turned around here, but Im starting to wonder. Are we a better program today than we were 2 years ago?
Some of the play calling last yr and the recruitment of just one, 3 star QB on the trail is mind boggling to me. Now we lose an instate QB to Auburn in a head to head battle.
And for any of u saying, u saw film of Narcisse and he wasnt that good:
LSU offered him a scholarship, their opinion is the one that counts. He chose Auburn. It has been a long time since LSU didnt get a born and raised instate QB they were after.
By itself, losing Narcisse means little, but its time to earn some of that money, imo.
