6'5, once he adds weight and gets in a SEC weight room.
He's a guy with a lot of upside, definitely not a finished product.
3000 plus passing
1000 on the ground
low interception rate

You and the other 13 guys who started threads just like this one have the same feeling.

Well, at the time, we were not going to take 3 QBs

so 1 had to be left out

obviously now that Narcisse is likely gone, it sucks, but that is what happens sometimes

He reminded me a lot of Jordan Jefferson in HS and that's not a knock on the kid. He completely dominated every game I watched him play. I'm curious to see how he transitions to the speed and complexity of SEC defenses.

Everyone bashing Coach O, O knows LSU needs a QB
Not one QB Miles has recruited has panned out except Mett. But Mett only ended up at LSU because he got booted from UGA.
Miles inherited Russell and Flynn.

I'm not sold on either Brennan or Narcise at this point. Let O find and recruit his guy and his coordinator and go to work.

At the end of the day (or after a couple years) most of these regrets stem from comparing what we have on the field to what 'they' have on the field at their best.

When they don't compare, then regret comes in. So half of the regret equation is in our development, or lack thereof.

So if we can put up star numbers, there is little regret (or jealousy) for someone getting away. And that's based off of the ASSUMPTION he'll reach his full potential. Then there's the other half...

... which I think indeed will be there in regards to Thompson. Maybe it's the Cam comparisons. Maybe it's because we've not seen anything close to what he might become (and I think he will), but damn I wish we had pursued this kid harder.

Always keep one thing in mind- for a little while UF's QB of the future, Cam, was a bust because he had to go JUCO. There's more to it than on the field. Even more difficult to predict than performance or future frame weight.

Dak Prescott was nice,and he broke all types of records at state, but he only beat us once his whole career.KT might end up being better,but we are looking to feed the new mike the tiger...pretty sure he will have a nice appetite!!!!
