re: Outside of Leonard, what Freshman are you most excited to see?

comparing his senior year to Rettig's senior year

Harris
209/330 63.3% 3518 yards (10.66 ypa) 37 TDs 9 ints
144 carries 1153 yards (8.0 ypc) 17 TDs

Rettig
261/486 62.2% 3424 yards (7.02 ypa) 40 TDs 18 ints

Jennings had under 60% cmp I believe. Just using this though, he had pretty good accuracy. I've heard from several Parkway alums, that his WRs drop a lot of passes. This year I'd be happy for 58% cmp. Cam is definitely going to use that arm so his ypa will be higher than one would expect from a true freshman QB.

Just to be clear, I wasn't making a case for Rettig. I've never seen him play, and don't know anything about him.

As for those numbers, that looks a lot better than what I've seen. Per lsusports.net:

quote:

---

Completed 178-of-329 passes for 3,172 yards with 34 touchdowns and 14 interceptions as a senior

---

That would put his senior year at 54%.

quote:

---

Threw for 2,573 yards and 26 touchdowns on 152-of-306 passing as a junior

---

Just under 50% as a junior.

BUT, lsusports.net could be wrong. I've actually seen them make quite a few statistical/numerical errors over the years. So, where did you get those senior stats from?

Perhaps it's lsusports.net that has the accuracy issues!

*I was looking in the LSU Record Book last night for statistics on Mitch Andrews for the Jersey Countdown Thread, and I noticed they had the playing years for TE Malcolm Scott wrong. He played at LSU from 1979-82. His playing years were listed as 1982-85.

I'd be glad to learn that they are wrong about Harris as well.
