Rank your confidence in Mett as a QB against other recent LSU signal callers.

Davey
Flynn
Russell
Mauck
Lee
Mett
Jefferson/Booty (Tie)
Randall

Flynn commanded the offense in 2007. It was beautiful to watch him move us down the field. When we needed a play, we got it more often than not.

All that matters is the confidence is higher than with JJ/Lee. People just keep forgetting this is Mett's first run through in the SEC, how was Lee/JJ's first go? How did Russell do in his FR season? Did Flynn not have three years of playing relief in blowout wins to gain experience?

I think a lot of people are forgetting that Marcus Randle put the team on his back and won a couple games for LSU in his time. I distinctly remember him coming in for the Arkansas game in 04 and playing great. I'm not saying he was a good QB for LSU, but I just can't imagine Mett having an impact on a game like that.

He makes me miss JJ

I'd have to switch Booty and Mett. Other than that, I agree with you

RP was never a starter, though he did start a couple of games and play meaningful snaps in others. He will always be remembered more for what could have been, rather than what was.

You can put him on your list if you want. You can include Hatch too if you want, but he had no business being here in the first place.

mett plays with the worst group of wr lsu has had in a long time also. take that into consideration. the wr cannot separate from the defender. it seems the wr are always blanketed and never open. mett basically has to throw the perfect pass for a completion everytime he drops back. its either really bad wr or really bad playcalling where the db's know what there running. the wr are just never open and i dont get it.

mett can wing it, and with time to throw i have all the confidence in the world of him getting it to a wr to make a play.

however, mett is a complete dipshit in pocket awareness and hopefully that will come with experience bc he is killing us with the lack of understanding when to step into pocket and when not and when to throw ball away and reading when the blitz is coming and not.
