Will Zach Mettenberger be anywhere as good as Ryan Mallet?

Is he all hype or do you think he will be better than RM and possibly the best pure passer LSU has had?

Thanks in advance for dropping the knowledge

Better. More athletes to distribute the ball to and better line play.

I will hold my judgment until I see him actually play against a real team.

Come on! It's February. Just throw out a wildly optimistic prediction. We don't withold judgement here when it comes to LSU football.

Questions like this are idiotic. They play the same position, but LSU has better skill players, way better running backs, and better depth. We also run a completely different system.

I thought it was a pretty fun question for a slow offseason

He will be better than Mallett and Tebow combined!







I really have no clue. I'm not buying the hype until I see him play a game. I heard a story about him that makes him sound really entitled (although, I was hearing it through a third or fourth party, so it could have been changed). Lee and Jefferson were both 4 stars. I won't buy into the Mett hype until he plays a game

I know I came off as an a-hole, I tend to do that on the Rant, but the question itself is flawed. Mettenburger has never played on the SEC level. He's never been down by 4 and forced to drive the ball down the field to win a game. Do I think he should start over JJ? Yes, but then again, hyping the hell out of the kid is not going to help matters. Honestly, there is a good chance hes only moderately successful or average next year. LSU is putting in an entirely new offensive scheme. While it might play to Mettenberger's strengths, others might not do so well.

you are awesome Tenman. If you want to ask does he only have 2 years over and over then go for it, big dawg.
