He showed major potential in the games he played in, moving the offense while throwing TD's and keeping ints low. And he played a large chunk of the season.

So why did he not receive a combine invite. It really can't be because JJ is viewed as a better pro QB than him. Can it?

(sorry if this has been asked a million times)

Because people outside of Louisiana aren't racist.

I'd imagine neither will sniff a job as NFL QB. JJ was probably invited regarding his overall talent and skill set which is greater than JL as far as other positions are concerned.

Yes it can. He's a better prospect than Lee, which isn't saying much.

JJ-Has all the physical skills the NFL is looking for.

JL-Doesn't have any of the physical skills the NFL is looking for.

Maybe he should have been a LBer, did you the way he threw down the Al player who intercepted his pass?

JJ is a better pro prospect than JL. Pretty simple.

"better" is a relative term. Neither of these jokers are going to see a training camp

I don't think that is true. People are racist everywhere. I do wonder if both QB's were white if anything would be different.



Elleshoe would you like to make a small friendly bet about the QB's making a camp?

I wouldn't think either would make a pro team as a QB, but JJ might at another position.

That's the only thing I can come up with to explain the invite, but who knows...

I'm starting to think the same thing as of lately. People act like JL was Jesus on water. NO! he sucked arse just as much as JJ.

Lol then they bring up the fight like Mettenburger didn't get kicked off Georgia's team for a incident. Its pathetic

He will not even get a look at another position. I don't know why people keep saying this.

Obvi because he has nudey pics of the NFL in his stash next to Miles' pics. - The Rant




And I agree with most of these posters. Neither will make a roster.

I thank them both for all of their contributions to LSU during their careers.

And I am VERY happy to move on from that chapter in LSU's history and think the future is bright with Mett at the helm.
