Harris will play until at least his junior year (2016)
Franks will RS that year
If Harris goes pro early then Justin will be the guy for a season IMO
If Harris stays till senior season
Justin should very much RS this season. Could play huge later. Which is why we need Jennings to back up Harris this year to allow that RS.
By RS Justin could very well get his turn to be a very veteran starter (Redshirt Senior) if Harris stays till senior season and then Franks starts for 2 seasons and goes pro.
I have always envisioned this scenario that while the others may be on another talent level, McMillian is a guy that is willing to wait his turn and very well be the perfect transition to keep us a national title contender just by experience in the system. Like how Flynn was a one year starter.
It's late and the math may be off but if Franks starts as a RS freshman and RS sophomore then goes pro.. Because he's that good. Then Justin is the perfect guy to fill in that final year and we can still be serious contenders. He would be a RS senior
I just really like the idea of red shirting all freshman quarterbacks because it gives time to develop and far more options. Even if guys like Franks leaves early you still have guys like Justin ready. That one year starting would have made his wait all the worth it. Could be so special.

So, beauchristopher makes an impressive summary of the 2017 QB situation.
On a related topic: although it would have been tremendous to get the verbal of Narcisse, remember the class of 2016 is still being filled, and NSD in February of 2017 is over a year and a half away--plenty of time for LSU to make a strong bid for someone else like Keytaon Thompson. And yes, it's nice to know there's another in-state QB recruit like Thompson who could possibly eventually be part of the Class of 2017.
