I’m sure the opinion of a scout at 247 that Howard is no longer a top 35 prospect of the 2022 class has very little to do with his future success in life.


The 247 howard ranking drop was odd. It was almost like they wanted to drop him and used every viable excuse they could. Not trying to be a conspiracy theorist (blah blah they hate LSU), but it was odd.

They said he was too short (previous class #1 quarterback was shorter than Howard), said he was injured (this shouldn't effect anything), tried saying he was a duel threat and not good enough as a duel threat to justify being a 5 star (he is a pocket passer who can run, not a duel threat quarterback) and said "oh he never fell, other guys just moved in front of him."

He was a superstar every time he stepped on a field, whether it be at college camps, nike camps, Elite 11, or on the actual field.

I mean the kid almost led his (very mediocre) team to a state championship with a literal broken leg

again, im telling you that shannon terry...the creator of 247 and On3 said to me the rankings were an NFL draft pick slot projection with 3-4 years of development and not based on where they are now with play/film/measurables/etc. Which makes them soooo meaningless

Once you are committed, and offered a scholarship, to a university like LSU you’re done with recruiting services like 247…thanks for the 5 stars, it worked.

I’m sure Howard wouldn’t trade places with the #1 247 QB for anything, he’s in P&G.

Unfortunately for my son, LSU doesn’t offer scholarships to kickers in every class…he’ll need to be the top kid AND get lucky.
