Is this pretty much proof that Rettig is out as well?

"Rivers said his brother is transferring because he’s more of a dropback quarterback, and LSU’s offense will feature read-option plays that require more a runner at quarterback."
That would probably rule Rettig out and only leave Harris/Jennings as the QB.
I don't really care who is QB, but I hope we aren't trying to make pocket passers (Harris/Jennings) dual threat QBs like we did with JJ.

1. Phillip Rivers' word isn't gospel
2. Occasionally running option with an athletic QB is a good thing and doesn't necessarily mean we're going to a full spread option offense
3. Rettig is very athletic and pretty mobile
4. WHY DOES JJ HAVE TO COME UP?

No its proof that a guy whose been here for 3 years isnt going to play, and hes leaving.

yes, because rivers left then rettig will also. makes sense to me

Did you expect him to say "My brother is transferring b/c he's not as good as the younger QBs and he won't get to play at LSU?"

If I had 2 more hands I would give this thread 4 thumbs down

Rettig is pretty damn mobile and we aren't going to be an option team with Cam Cameron. We might have a couple read option plays, which I welcome fully to keep the defense honest. We've seen how well that works in college football. Rettig can run those and he has a cannon. Obviously you didn't watch their HS videos. Its not like Jennings is a run first guy, he's a pocket passer as well.
Phillip Rivers is just giving a random reason Stephen is leaving when the real reason is he's just not good enough. I wish him well, but we have brought in some great talent at QB.

That's about about the biggest stretch you could probably make and literally makes no sense.
Rivers is transferring for one reason. He is not as good as the younger guys.
Really your argument carries no weight when you bring up jj. Everything that happened to jj came under a completely different o coordinator.
Considering what Cam did in one year with Lsu's offense, his history in the nfl, and his history with Randall El, nobody has any reason to question his qb decisions. I'm sure he told Rivers where he stood and that's why rivers left.

YES.
Thank you for your extensive research.
On another note... here is some proof that ghosts are among us:

I am hoping this means that Rettig is looking better than Rivers in practice.

After 3 years if Rettig has yet to see the field (meaningful PT) & the coaches are bringing in primo young QB's left & right who are projected to pass him on the depth chart, basically blueprinting the fact that they don't expect him to figure into the rotation, then yes, Rettig will probably follow the same path as Rivers.
