Let's be clear, I'm not saying he should start against any SEC defense....yet, but we should obviously get him some snaps. I hear everyone saying he would get broken behind this O Line so I'm wondering what options he has to keep himself healthy back there. Seems like he has the arm to bail him out, but what about his legs? What are your concerns about his game if he were to start at some point this year?

Not what you want to see tested . . . at least not until he gets more meat on the bone.

from what I remember, Narcisse has good mobility and a nice arm... why isn't he being discussed for getting more snaps as well?

Not trolling and not being a dick. Serious question.

I don't have an answer to that question, but I agree. Why is he not in question to come in relief?

He has an arm supposedly. I do not believe he is mobile enough to make a difference, in the limited work that I have seen from him. Hopefully, he gets some real work against Syracuse.

I'm not 100% on this, but didn't Brennan have comparable rushing stats to Narcisse?
Also.... I can't figure out why people need to have a kid who has played less than 1 season of football over the last 2 years in a major college football game. On top of that, had 2 ACL reconstructions.
You think that kid is any more ready to be hit in the mouth than Brennan just b/c he weighs more? shite no, the chances he shits the bed is way higher than Brennan. For some reason everyone thinks b/c he was mobile it makes him a better QB. If you can't complete a pass you shouldn't be in the game. Let Brennan be the backup this year. All things point to him being the better QB right now, which should be expected by everyone just simply due to the amount of football played b/w the 2.
Being physically gifted doesn't make you ready, he is more likely to be a deer in headlights right now. Let the kid redshirt, learn the offense and get some time in. Almost all reports out of spring and fall is he has some accuracy issues anyways.

Again, I haven't checked but I'm pretty sure they had comparable rushing numbers. Let them battle it out in the spring and see who comes out on top.

I dont know. I feel like Canada loved Brennan's arm and accuracy.

I hope Narcisse doesn't end up transferring. But do y'all think it could happen if Brennan gets all the love?

You think that was the reason MB got #2? Though if that was the case, You'd think LN would be redshirted.

From what you remember at St. James High School in Vacherie Louisiana. He hasn't played a down at LSU in Baton Rouge Louisiana.

In practice, he hasn't displayed consistent accuracy throwing the football and running the offense. Doesn't know the playbook. O'Canada doesn't feel like he's ready to see any game action.

Serious answer.............

He weighs 200 pounds. Damn yall act like the guy is made of glass.
As far as his mobility, he's a better athlete than Etling, but you are not going to run zone read with him. Id compare his running to Sam Darnold or Mason Rudolph.

If he was mobile he would probably be playing for MSU.

We have not had a QB since Mike Flinn! QB will not work with out an offense line. Really feel bad for Etling, has to run for his life every snap!!!

Im so tired of people using his ACL injury as an excuse of why he shouldn't be given the opportunity to play right now. If he is cleared by the doctors to play, then shut up!

He moves around pretty well, has good mobility in the pocket. Moves better than Etling
