Or 3. When you come in with demands and they are met and then you tuck tail and run people take shots at you.

If you want to have swagger back it up. No one is hating on Walker if he came in and tried and left.

The same one repeated here over and over and pretty sure daddy even said on radio that he wanted a red shirt, he got one and was treated as such.

Burrow lost the starting job to a band injury. Howard wouldn’t have had a shot to start and threw his sucker in the dirt. Those two things are not the same.

Howard never even gave it an honest effort.

Yeah. I was under the impression that he and his family wanted him to redshirt this year anyway.

I really don't understand his decision. Maybe he has to sit for a couple years but if he's that good he would be in a legit QB competition with Nuss in 24 anyway.

That being said, I don't wish him to fail. I just really don't understand his decision here. Especially being a legacy guy and probably would have been a fan favorite once he got his chance.

Plus 3 springs at Tosu competing before coming here.

You have to be blind and retarded to not see any differences. Sadly, we have fans melting over a third string qb because of his last name.

Do you all remember Burrow left Ohio St because he didn't think he could beat out JT Barrett and Haskins?


How many years did he compete for the starting job??

But you could also ask... why doesn't he want to compete.... or why so much hate for Daniels?

The ones saying no big deal probably didn’t want him playing.

The ones melting like Oktiger were the ones giving walker head all year.

Thats the weird part is what is really different today than when he signed. The staff is the same, sure Daniels is returning but Brennan was here when he signed so AT BEST he was probably expecting to battle it out with Nuss this year and now that is delayed by one year. So you burn your one time no penalty transfer on a one year delay in the plan? It doesnt add up to me unless he just totally lacks any confidence whatsoever that he can win the job from Nuss an if that the case, he belongs somwehere else.

Competing and not winning and then transferring is one thing and that makes sense....transferring before the competition even begins is weak sauce IMO.

They’re just saying it to make themselves feel better. He was the first 5* QB in Louisiana that LSU landed since Perriloux, and people want to make him out to be an absolute scrub based on four plays in a bowl game.

He has been a full time LSU student for 4 months. 1 full semester and he leaves. Do y’all remember when he told Will Campbell you’re going to be my starting left tackle.

I agree, no reason to bash the kid.


But there's a LOT of non-LSU fans on here too.

Its OK for the HC to go outside the sate and bring in a less talented, emergency fix, but it's not OK for a young talented kid to make a business decision.
The players didn't create this screwed up system. They have to adjust and make decisions that they believe optimize their opportunity for success.

This will not turn out to be a Burrow situation. Burrow was not a freshman. He gave OSU a decent shot.

Burrow had graduated.


So. That just meant he was immediately eligible then, as is Howard now.

There is no fundamental difference between their respective decisions. They both left eligibility behind at one school to better their football fortunes at another.

It can easily be argued that if you're gonna transfer, sooner is better than later for both parties.

Some school is gonna get one heckuva scout team QB.
