Brennan won't be red-shirted, already outperforming LSU's no.1 starter

Source confirmed what others have already posted. Brennan will definitely not be red-shirted, he's too good to sit out a season, looks better than LSU's no.1. starter, Etling. I had to know if what was being posted on the rant was true, so I asked. It is!

Not trying to poop on the party, but a true freshman outperforming the expected starter might say more about the expected starter than about the true freshman.
In what big games has etling looked better in than harris/jennings?

Do you and DALSU have the same sources?

None, but Etling is supposedly healthy. Although Harris also played a season injured and recovery didn't help much.
I have longed for better qb play regardless of age and coaching. I hope the best plays, even if true freshman.

If Ole Miss ever counted as a big game, then that's one.

Stay focused on this one part of the statement, it's not necessarily a condemnation of Etling's play.
"he's too good to sit out a season".

So our coaches know Brennan won't redshirt after only 5 college practices!
Dude must be that great, or you that stupid to believe that BS.
DE will be our qb, unless he gets hurt.

Can you elaborate on the source? I can't see him not redshirting.

Actually you can, if this is the guy that's impressing the coaching staff, and is likely LSU's starter in 2018, then you will want to provide him live snaps in a game this year. Choosing not to red-shirt him suddenly makes a great deal of sense.

Remember that time Coach O almost lost Brennan because of his stupid offer to the Hawaii kid already locked into Bama?

If he plays at all, it'll be in mop up duty IMO. But even that is a stretch, to me, at this stage.
I know the kid is good but he still has some weight to put on.
What's your source? I'm not trying to be disrespectful, I'm really asking.

The redshirt for him won't be decided until the end of the year in regards to whether he plays or not.
Similar to Jennings before Mett went down against Arkansas.

To TTT, I hope you are correct. Even if it's not in big games, would be great to have some snaps going into next year.

I don't know what Brennan has done in the summer or is doing in practice.
But the idea that freshmen QBs don't start and thrive (even in the mighty SEC) is just outdated bullshite.
True Freshmen QBs in 2016
Shea Patterson is also not mentioned in the article above. And it's possible (possible, I say) that some of those teams (Alabama, Georgia etc) had tougher incumbent competition that Etling.
