Joel Klatt Talks Garrett Nussmeier's QB Ranking & Makes Prediction For LSU In 2025

by Staff Reporter

May 20, 202524 Comments

Fox Sports College Football analyst Joel Klatt recently ranked LSU's Garrett Nussmeier as his 6th-best quarterback for next season and thinks the 2025 Tiger squad "should be" Brian Kelly's best team he's had at LSU. Per On3:

quote:
“Garrett Nussmeier might not be the most athletic guy out there, but he’s huge, and he threw for over 4,000 yards last year,” Klatt said. “He’s an absolute gunslinger, good and bad. He can take some chances, but in that offense with Brian Kelly, you know that he’s going to put up numbers.

“LSU is going to be a really good football team. This should be Brian’s best LSU team, I think, at least. Got to cut down on turnovers, 15 last year. And for a traditional pocket guy that’s not going to bail you out with his legs, minimizing turnovers is a must. You cannot turn the football over if you’re going to be a traditional pocket guy.”

You know what trips me out the most about this Nuss talk? Everybody talking like Nuss just started throwing INT's last season. Well every time Nuss has took the field he has thrown an INT even in the spring game, but when has a QB with a gunslanging mentality has not thrown an INT or two? I expect Nuss to be in the forefront of the Heisman race with a year of starting after throwing for over 4,000 yards. Nuss experience and the plethora of weapons he has to do total damage with will make a hell of a difference in the '25.

I hate when Nuss puts his hands on his head after he screws up. Dude either don't screw up or show some leadership and take your screw up better. It's a terrible look.

Bigpoppat•12 months

"take your screw up better"....WTF do you want him to do? Pout on the sidelines? Smash a water cooler? Cry and point at his WR's? Blame the referees?

He puts his hands on his head, and you're complaining that he isn't a leader?

His body language needs to improve when he gets tackled. Acts like he's hurt every time. Show some toughness.

mdomingue•12 months

You mean like Jim Brown used to do? He should have shown more toughness I guess.

Lsu's transition from CBU to QBU was not expected

RightWingTiger•12 months

Pretty sure you meant DBU chief.

You lost me at Manning, a guy riding pine for 2 years behind a 7th rounder.

BlackAngus•12 months

Nuss isn't "huge" at all. What the Hell is this guy talking about.

Kajuntiger121110•12 months

I dint think he means in stature...I think he means he a big time qb.

luciouslou•12 months

I would not take anybody 1-5 on that list above nuss.
I would probably take lagway, but somehow he is below nuss on the list.

cajunmud•12 months

I hear Nuss is working on his running game by taking ballet, kung fu and yoga. Gone be like Gumbie out there this year.

bayou85•12 months

When he takes off, they're gonna play the nutcracker song so he'll go off.

Bosco•12 months

“Gone be”? Why are LSU fans on this site so fricking uneducated? It’s embarrassing.

cajunmud•12 months

@Bosco, I guess reading Huckleberry Finn would 'bout make your head explode then...wudn't it?

sabbertooth•12 months

Opinions are like assholes.
Nuss’s biggest problem is his OL.
Arch @ #2 lmao. If he was that good why was he behind Ewers?

Schmelly•12 months

What did he say that’s wrong. Pretty spot on, I’d say

Schmelly•12 months

And no, his biggest problem was throwing to wrong color jersey last year

LSUGOAT2•12 months

We ALL know this is CBKs best team since he's been here. The question is..WHAT IS HE GOING TO DO WITH IT?

FATBOY TIGER•12 months

Manning at 2 LOL

young man tiger•12 months

He’s not huge at all, but he is among the more athletic pocket passers. So reverse it Joel.

brettmo11•12 months

Exactly! Listed at 6’2 200 ( surprised at the weight) and while he’s not elusive, he’s not Mettenberger, he has enough athleticism to move the sticks
