Would Coach O have had half of his support if we knew he wanted Dual Threat QBs?

I would have been very lukewarm on him if that was the case. The reason a lot of people were excited to run the last coach out of town was because we were finally using a QB to throw the ball and showing different wrinkles on offense.
I like how our offense started to look this year. Let's build on that.
Guice is our running back next year. We have very capable backs behind him. I hope we get many more in the future. Let them do the running!!!
Sorry, but I went from solidly pro-O to someone who is deeply concerned about next year.

The difference is Les wanted a dual threat qb to run a pro style offense. That isn't what O is trying to do.

The smart fans didn't need the dual-threat QB thing to be doubtful of the O hire.

What the hell do yall want.
Most spread offenses are run by dual threat qbs.
The majority on the board have been clamoring for a spread offense. So O goes and starts trying to recruit qbs that typically run the spread and now yall still bitch

This is the paradox that is LSU! WTF do you think Tom Herman runs. This place all most crashed because we didn't hire Herman!
I said this two months ago that the LSU fanbase wants trendy up and comer Tom Herman but they don't want his offense...

I agree with you there!
I guess we just have to have confidence that Orgeron has a plan and that plan will work.
I guess I might have a little more confidence if a "convicted felon's name- Derek Pomnansky" wasn't on the "binder" plan that Orgeron has!

Have you been to any high school football games lately? Nearly every QB in high school is to some extent dual threat and in most cases a full blown dual threat. Bottom line is that the separation between DT and pro style QBs by rating organizations is pretty much moot at this point.

me too we need miles brennan asap

I just thought for the first time in a while we have a big time qb committed and now it feels like we are chasing him off. We say we want dual threat and offers dual threat.
I feel like we did the same thing after mett. Coach cam did great with him then we tell him it's dual threat only.

well, you know, bama, Clemson, florida state, ohio state, auburn and many others have or have had dual threats that have won it all (or in bama's case will probably win the frickin' next 2 or 3).
I don't like it. it's boring. it puts way too much emphasis on one player. it's like high school. but it is what it is. UH or Louisville would be shite w/o their dual threat guy. it appears that college football does not have the personnel or coaching on defense to stop these guys.

You are an idiot. Guice would kick arse out of the spread.
Posted on 11/30/16 at 6:40 pm to mmcgrath
Actually that makes me like him to know this

Miles had the worst of both worlds. He recruited Duals and then basically asked them to be pro-style.

OP, are you saying you wouldn't be interested in the next Tebow, Cam, or Charlie Ward?
Posted on 11/30/16 at 9:43 pm to mmcgrath
most people consider Bama and Fla st to run pro style, yet a lot of times they recruit QB's who can also run. I think coach O views it the same way SaBEN And Jimbo view it. They and he, just want a good QB that they feel they can win with.

I was in favor of the O hiring but I cringed when he mentioned the dual threat QB at the presser in such absolute terms. I thought of Brennan. I was hoping to ease into the spread, or run some kind of hybrid for a while.

Which I had more down votes. You're obviously content with dominating Mizzou, A&M, and mcneese every year, while struggling against better competition. Come out of the twighlight zone. It's 2017, not 1917.
