re: Watched Matt Canada's offense against Clemson on yesterday!

quote:

---

He's like a more athletic Troy Smith

He's very similar to Russel Wilson, as they are both 5'11" and both of them are very athletic, quick, and fast. He's also super smart as he graduated high school with an overall 3.8 gpa, and according to Herb Tyler, he has very excellent leadership skills. Sounds to me like he is perfect for Canada's misdirection heavy offense.

I hope Scott comes in and kills it and see how many of u negative mofos gon be tryna hold his jock strap

"Yeah...not because him being a great player would make LSU a better team. No...It's much more important that he allow me to stir up rant shite instead. I'm a true fan, dammit!"

How many SEC schools offered Lindsey Scott a scholarship?

None. So what. The SEC is the worst QB conference of the Power 5. It's a "running league. Not a QB league. Scott had 2 Big 10 offers, and 2 ACC offers. Both conference are better QB conferences than the SEC.

He'll make a great WR. Too short to play QB in the SEC. Will not be able to consistently throw the ball at the level you need................

Blake Sims

I think he broke the school record with 3000 yds passing. Height didn't seem to stop him one bit.

What exactly is a misdirection formation?

The OP may not know this, but I bet he knows an a*hole response when he gets one.

quote:

Most of us have never seen him play, but we have heard from various people that he is damn good. In fact, Herb Tyler says that Scott is the best quarterback right now on the team and is more than a little electrifying. He also says that Scott's leadership skills are second to none and that he should be the starter in 2017. Coach O has said Scott is going to be a real good dual threat quarterback for us. Mike Dettilier says he is an outstanding athlete and that he has a very accurate arm. Now personally I don't know, but I tend to believe it when people that know football say he is damn good.

Thank you for correcting the previous poster. Most of us "supporters" have also watched quite a few interviews of him AND those who know him and his skillset. So we have a good idea where this kid's mind is and what kind of player he is. Not to mention his work ethic that we keep hearing about. This has absolutely shite to do with the old cliche "the backup is always the most popular QB." That holds no weight in this conversation.

And for those who say his height is a factor for him to start in the SEC, you must not watch football.. EVER. Wilson and Brees are both under 6 feet tall and have done pretty well in the best league in the world. Another BS argument.

According to Herb Tyler and Mike Detillier, Scott is already the best passer on the team. He only passed for 3039 yards and 33 touchdowns his senior season, and added another 1963 yards on the ground and another 28 touchdowns, for over 5002 yards and 61 touchdowns altogether, while leading Zachary to its first state title since 1974.

Meanwhile, Russel Wilson, who ran Matt Flynn out of Seattle, is a damn good QB who is only 5'11" and built pretty much the same as Scott.

In addition, Drew Breeze is only an inch taller, but can't run the ball nearly as well as Scott, nonetheless he isn't any slouch when it comes to passing the ball.

Sounds like the Brandon Harris hype part 2.

I believe State actually either gave him an offer (probably non-commitable) or showed interest. As we all know, Mullen does a pretty good job of uncovering underrated QBs. I don't think Fitzgerald even had another FBS offer, and he's turned out ok.

Scott's ratings are purely based on his size. I was hesitant about his potential here because of Miles and Cam, but I think he could be an effective QB under a guy like Canada.

What the hell is some of yalls knock on Scott? He's 5'11" with better accuracy than any QB on the roster..

---

They don't know, man because they're typical LSU fans that's why. I guarantee you if Scott won the starting job and played lights out at QB for LSU in leading them to the CFP, they would swear they never said anything negative about him in the singing of his praises. lol

Scott has to be a extremely talented kid to put up those kind of numbers like he did in his senior year of HS football. That's someone that is explosive, and being a former ball player myself I know you have to have talent to do that. They talk about his height, but if you have the talent your damn height doesn't matter! I mean Greg Ward Jr isn't as talented as Scott I think, but look what he did in Tom Herman's system at Houston last season, and he is 5'11" also. If you have the skills the height doesn't matter because you can still produce.
