He is the number 1 junior college recruit with like 4,000 yds passing and like 6 picks. I definitely anticipate some more 2 qb offense from LSU.

because he has never played a down of division 1a ball.

Cam Newton but a pocket passer.

I honestly think he should just be the starter at this point. Take our lumps now.

I think he'll get snaps but not really in a rotation scenario like we had with JJ and JL. Lee and Mett are really similar in style of play. If Lee is on I doubt we see much of Mett.

We are all saying prayers for JJ, can't use time for any other event at the moment.

Well, for all the Mett disciples, this is best case scenario. He doesn't start, but a better chance of getting some playing time this year.

He didn't have anywhere near 4,000 yards passing. I think it was about 2,600 yards. Don't get me wrong, his numbers were very impressive - just no need to exaggerate by an additional 50%.

Exaggeration makes it look better. But if it is 2600, that's only a 35% increase... Just saying.

Either way, I don't see anyone really talking about him.

Because it is unlikely to do a change of pace with two similar quarterbacks. Mett gets in as backup and if Lee plays poorly he may get a shot.

What's the point of rotating two pocket passers?
