Ed Orgeron Wants Starting QB Battle To Be Settled In Fall Camp

by Staff Reporter

LSU head coach Ed Orgeron spoke to reporters at SEC Media Days on Monday in Atlanta and said that he would like to have the quarterback competition settled in fall camp before the season opener vs. Miami.

The already unknown quarterback situation with the Tigers got an added twist when Ohio State grad transfer QB Joe Burrow joined the team in May. He will compete with Myles Brennan, Lowell Narcisse, and Justin McMillan for the starting job

Although Orgeron would like the decision to be made before the seasons starts he did say that they could play two quarterbacks if the battle is not settled. Per NOLA.com:

quote:
All four quarterbacks are vying for the starting position, even if Burrow would be considered the favorite after transferring in from Ohio State, and Orgeron hopes one of the four separates themselves before LSU's opener Sept. 2 against Miami.

"We would like it to be settled in fall camp," Orgeron said. "We don't know if it will be or not. That could be a possibility.

"We don't want to do this, but we'd have to play two quarterbacks. I don't see that happening, but we'll do it if we have to."

It’d be shocking if Burrow doesn’t start

All of them look really good in my view. On the field under pressure is where stars shine b.r.i.g.h.t. LSU always has had an ability to cultivate athletic talent that other universities miss. (example:J. Russell)

This comment started off fine then got pretty weird.

I can see the future, it’s gonna be Joe

One will pop out but I'm a big fan of all 4. I'm ready for a QB that can handle the pressure and has it all going on upstairs. Without a Heisman level RB, we may really be in for a treat.

"he would like to have the quarterback competition settled in fall camp before the season opener vs. Miami." I would sure hope we'd know the quarterback before football games begin.

I sure hope someone steps up immediately and shows that they are the starter in the first few weeks. Tired of no one separating themselves and the min something goes wrong in the game we like bring in the backup. If our starter shows he is the man the a bad qtr or two wont have us like yelling for the backup.
