LSU is so much better off at quarterback depth-wise with backups Justin McMillan and Danny Etling, although Etling is ineligible as a transfer from Purdue. Both players have the body language of a quarterback and seem to have better fundamentals than either Anthony Jennings or Brandon Harris had when they arrived at LSU. Both players snap their throws with a good, quick release. They won't help immediately, but strengthen LSU at the position down the road.

Who in the Sam Hill would downvote this? Nothing wrong with the depth at QB. Thanks for sharing and I agree with you.

Add Franks to the mix next year and we are light years ahead of recent QB woes. Add in perceived high character to the whole bunch and if they all have patience/dedication they can all legitimately compete for a starting role and/or contribute at some level and enjoy future championships.

Danny Etling


I always saw him as the insurance policy against Jennings transferring next year.

Prediction: I can see Harris doing well this year hopefully he blows up. Jennings sits back and transfers at the end of the year to some FCS school in Georgia. Next year u have: Harris, Jr QB, Etling JR QB, McMillian, RS-Fr, then Franks as Fr QB.

Absolutely. The qb position looks like it is coming along.

I call bullshite. Jennings arrived with the potential to win 6 Heismans, and last year Brandon Harris was the best backup quarterback since Matt "Touchdown" Flynn.

Etling will get a legit shot at the starting QB position.
