Listen up... there is no competition for the starter in Game #1. It will be 5th-year Senior Myles Brennan. Clear?

No clear #1 means that someone learning is rising. You know what you have with older guys...new blood is pushing....translation--Howard

If any of the QB’s can beat out Brennan, I have no worries. Because the last time I saw Brennan run the offense, his numbers were eclipsing Joe Burrow’s numbers. I think a lot of people have forgotten how good Brennan can be. Got to be pretty darn good to beat him out.

I agree 100%. The only thing negative that I remember about Brennan is his pocket awareness. If he has learned to sidestep and step up in the pocket and keep his eyes down feel then he could be the SEC quarterback of the year.

I agree with Tiger on the Rag, His inability to read defenses and a porous offensive line makes the offense incompatible to pocket passers.

I hope Myles sticks around so we can actually see him play. It’s definitely looking like we are in the early stages and won’t know anything for a long time.

It’s too bad that Howard is a freshman. That kid is going to be the future QB at LSU. Even with his injury, reports are that he’s got the IT factor. Sees things quickly, has a cannon, accurate, moves well in the pocket and throws a catchable ball. He’s not afraid to let the WRs go up and catch the ball and puts the ball in a spot that only the WR has a chance to catch it. He just needs experience. I like his chances if the other experienced QBs don’t develop further.

Is that the same IT factor that Max Johnson has?

He is the one. His injury is and was a complete non factor entering Spring. He's single handedly keeping them from naming a starter because of his progress. That's why it's "continued into summer" I would imagine after a talk, Nuss will transfer out before summer...or st least 1 upper classmates will

BK has used 2 QBs before: Everett Golston & Tommy Rees, Malik Zaire & Deshone Kizer come to mind. I’ll bet MB starts & JD has his own package of plays

My prediction is MB will start and JD will play in certain situations.

2 QB = 5 loss season and 5th place in the SEC West. Hell no!
