Some LSU fans just look at the very few schools that have unusually sustained success with landing/developing QB and think that's the norm. It's not.


It is the norm when you have a talented development staff, and understand what you want to do on offense. Ie. Patterson, Briles, Harbaugh, Leach etc. How many of there usually (FAR LESS TALNTED, and not highly ranked coming out of HS) go on to start, play well early and usually have multi-year illustrious careers?

Please don't blame this on the fact that LSU hasn't brought in talent at the QB position. And, don't think that this issue doesn't have a ton to do with what talent we haven't brought in.

Patterson


Patterson should have started boykin ever since the LSU loss and didn't. He mismanaged his qb position.

Leach's QBs were never great. They were just air raid, throw on every down, dink and donk, system QBs. Briles has something going but Patterson has been at TCU since 2002 and his only QBs of note are Dalton, Pachall 1 year, and Boykin 1 year.

JJ was better than all but three of Patterson's QBs at TCU (I'd say tie with Ballard). Harbaugh had the very talented Luck, and that was it. There is nothing else to go on with him.

I wish you had looked around instead of spouting off names like you knew what the hell you were talking about.
