Franks is taller and has a bigger arm. I understand he had the edge with accuracy for the last two days at camp, so I would have to give him the nod if we could only take one. But, we can take both...and should...and will.

there is no way we will keep both. One of them will choose a different school

I say take Felipe and Patterson and see which one has the most confidence in himself to take the job. If they keep competing in settings like that, one will concede before signing day and move on. If you can't seperate their physical talent then you have to seperate their mental talent and confidence. Keep putting them head to head and see which one concedes.

Totally agree! That's why I say it will be fun the next 2 years seeing these guys play it out.

It is also very possible we take both and one bypasses college for MLB. Obviously the staff agrees as both have been offered.

Would be awesome if we get both...basically guarantees a really good qb

Franks also has a huge wind up and is not nearly as mobile as he's portrayed. Ran a 4:9 40.
BUT, want both.

Heard a rumor, Scike complained to Coach Nader about the NOLA.com crew.

Has quick feet though..40 yard dash means very little for a qbs mobility

Ehhh I'd have to disagree. Blitz comes an a QB has to roll out...a 4.9 and a 4.6 makes a big difference on how far you get. In today's football you have D linemen running in the 4s...franks does have the size but also gotta think they both still have 2 years left. Patterson could grow and franks could get faster. Gonna be exciting to see things play out

Cameron would develop Franks into a better QB than what Shea would be IMO. Not to diminish Shea's ability or ceiling. I believe he is an elite prospect as well. Let's call it 1A and 1B. One of those guys is already throwing 90+ on a different field, so that is definitely weighing in on LSU's approach. And it should, as we learned with Zach Lee. In excited about both of these guys.

Don't think it's realistic that we get both guys.

Not sure of the details, like who the prospects were, but apparently guys that were helping NOLA.com talked to kids before Scarborough could get to them and he complained. Sam listened to Scike and then kinda laughed it off.
Maybe they didn't have Press credentials?
