re: why cant we find a qb?

LSU doesn't produce many. When we get one or two, they usually stink. When we go out of state for QBs - it's really hit or miss.

LSU has had a QB problem for a long, long time.

Name the "better than good to great" LSU QBs since Herb Tyler:

Etling (Purdue, Indiana kid)
Mett (UGA, JUCO - Georgia kid)
Flynn (Texas kid)
Russell (Bama kid)
Davey (Florida kid)
Mauk (Baseball, Indiana kid)

Two transfers, 1 baseball reclamation project, and 3 "steals" - ALL 6 from other states.

How many "meh" Louisiana QBs have we tried during that same almost 20 year period?

At least a half dozen, plus throw in a few Andrew Hatches Jarrett Lees here and there (whom we should thank for being there when we needed them).
