Who do think Coach Cameron would REALLY rather have?

Patterson or Franks if he had his choice. If it was just you and him talking, who do you he would tell you.

I haven't watched any footage on Patterson but Franks looks like the perfect quarterback for LSU's pro-style offense.

Which ever one he doesn't have to teach to take a snap from under center and teach how to control the huddle

Both. He would say be wants both. Then he would say he can make either of them a stud, and he wants the one that really wants to be here. I bet that is in Cam's diary in one way or another.

IF it was me and Coach Cam talking, i'd ask him WTF happened to our QB situation last year

I think he'd rather Franks by far. And that's not sour grapes. 1) he's physically got a higher ceiling, 2) he doesn't have to worry about Franks' brother competing for his attention, But 3--and most importantly--)Cam seemed to have chosen Franks and gone after him 1st and harder.

Well, he did say Franks is more advanced at this stage of his career than Peyton Manning...
And Franks is committed to LSU. Patterson isn't.
You do the math.

OP is trying so hard to justify beliefs that Patterson is the better QB.
Posted on 2/19/15 at 12:18 am to damnstrongfan
he hand picked Franks as the guy he wanted, so there is your answer. But no doubt he wouldnt like to add Patterson if he could.

I think we could've had Patterson if we would've dropped Franks. Patterson wasn't coming here to compete with another QB of that caliber. It was one or the other. In that sense, Cameron picked Franks. He's the better fit and I'm happy with how it turned out for us

Franks.
Posted on 2/19/15 at 12:51 am to damnstrongfan
Seeing as Cam had his choice between Franks and Patterson and he chose Franks, that should pretty much answer your question.

The one who wants to be a Tiger! Take this off the board

what does someones opinion of which player a coach might want? Instead of a stupid thread like this why don't we all get behind and support the players we have and the ones that actually commit to LSU?
Posted on 2/19/15 at 7:36 am to damnstrongfan
which one got the first offer after Cameron saw them side by side at camp?
I'll answer for you. It was Franks.

My personal opinion is that when he went to visit both a couple of weeks back, he let both know what his choice was. I think he has a commitment from the QB he:

Franks by a mile. Cam knew who Patterson was well before Franks committed, yet there wasn't a crazy push for him as well. Franks is a perfect QB for his system with a lot of room to grow and develop.
Saying that, I believe LSU or at least Cam felt that they got their QB, and getting a second guy was necessary for depth and competition.
IMO (maybe others don't feel the same), Franks would have surpassed Patterson after a year or two in the system. Both would have been behind Harris for 1 possibly 2 years, and Shea has no upside. Franks can improve on a lot of things from weight and mechanics, to foot speed and decision making. People say he puts too much arc on a lot of his passes. Mett had the same problem for years until Cam fixed it his first year here.
The future of LSU is consistent playoff team, because we have found our QB of the future. A QB that perfectly fits our offense. A QB with 1st round potential and talent in an NFL level scheme.

Depends when we need him by and how much confidence he has in himself to coach up a QB.
Franks is bigger, faster, stronger. Probably has a higher ceiling. That being said idk in his film I don't know if you see him make all the throws he will need to make at the college level. Not saying he can't make them, but his film just shows that he can throw an excellent deep ball with touch. Patterson to me seems like the more college ready QB. In his film you can see him go through progressions and make a ton of different passes.

Why? Franks had an offer before Patterson. Franks will be our QB so who gives two flips what happens with Parterson.
