re: Which Hallman Era QB could lead the current offense?

chad had the mentality, dedication and smarts to run any offense, lack of athleticism would have been overshadowed by the former

I have to disagree a bit here. Loup wasn't going to be a wishbone QB but he was plenty athletic enough.

quote:

Jamie had the all pro cannon but the mentality of a 18 yr old immature kid, was not really a student of the game and him & hallman did not like each other

---

I will have to ask about this but it doesn't sound right. I know the upper classmen were pissed that Hallman basically handed the job to Howard. ( At that time it could have been pressure from outside the program )

loup commanded the respect of the O including the line, howard did not.

This is absolutely true, the team as a whole respected and supported Loup.

if not for the AU game that season and CH career at LSU would have gone very different

I don't know if I would go that far. Their were a lot of things going on behind the scenes that a lot don't know. Most have heard about Curly banging his secretary but most don't know he was messing with some coeds also. Even if some of the breaks would have went LSU's way I still think he would have failed.
