Rohan was on Matt Moscona last week (link below). Ro is very high on Joe Burrow (and adamant about it!)

Rohan's comments:
quote:

"I think Joe's going to make a huge step. I know what it feels like to be comfortable in the second year of an offense. I know what kind of frickin crap he went through this year just trying to get everything right. And he did a fantastic job.

I'm just picturing now his second year. He's had a whole year here. He's had a whole year with his receivers. And he's a smart guy. And he knows what he's doing.

Honestly. um. um. Who the hell's the offensive coordinator? Ensminger! If he lets that boy loose...Man. And if it goes the way I think it will go... I think Big Joe will break my passing yardage... I'm telling you!"

Ok. NOW you are providing credible info, my friend. If Rohan says it, that really gets my attention. Nice work here, Jeaux.

Jeaux will break the all-time LSU season passing record with games to spare. He was only 500 yards shy last year after showing up 3 months before the season began. The offense had 3 returning starters. This year they lost 3 starters.

I always enjoy listening to Rohan and his perspective (and I loved him as a player too). I think more time in the system with some new things added and building chemistry with the WRs will make Joe that much better this year. Plus, the WRs were really inexperienced last year. Also, he will have a home run threat in the backfield, so that will help as well.

Always enjoy listening to Rohan on AFR. He is great at taking is knowledge from his playing days and translating that to average joe's like myself.

The only thing holding Joe back in terms of breaking the LSU QB passing yardage record is a good solid running game and putting teams away early.

Won’t this be Joe’s 1st year in the offense? At least I thought I heard the offense will be totally different this year.

Rohan is an all around good dude. Have had the opportunity to hang with him a few times in Nola and the north shore via a friend of a friend.

Very fun to talk with about LSU past and present. And if he’s excited, I’m really excited!

I think that hit Joe toke against UCF knocked loose whatever was holding him back. I think he pushes any records held for passing at LSU. The only thing that may keep him from breaking them is LSU has some studs at RB now. gonna be a fun year

Rohan is my all time favorite LSU QB. My God that kid could sling it. Him and Josh Reed were unstoppable when they were on.

Alabama.
2001.

Davey : 35/44 (80%), 528 yards, 2 TDs
Reed : 19 catches, 293 yards, 1 TD

Just freakin' insane.

How can you not love Rohan St. Patrick Davey?

I’m excited about our young players coming in and obviously Joe Burrow.

I’m thinking and hoping Joe Brady + Joe Burrow is life changing for our offense.

Joe Brady might be the biggest get for LSU.

My wife had a class during her freshman year with Rohan and Abraham Booty. She said Rohan was outgoing in class and always hanging out with Abraham like they were best friends.

At that point, Abraham was a starting WR and playing with Herb Tyler. Just a year or so later, Josh Booty transferred in and started a long QB controversy with Rohan. Abraham never did nearly as much after his freshman year, which was likely due to injury. Although I always wondered how Abraham must have felt being in the middle of the Josh Booty v Rohan Davey debates.

That's great to hear. All Burrow has to do is execute.

I’ve been screaming this since the day he signed. Burrow was a potential program changing player, and I honestly can’t wait to see him break out next year as a senior and in his second full season as a starter.


Now if only he’d have a J Reed step up (Jefferson could be the guy but watch out for Chase who is built very similarly ), and a Toefield and Davis wouldn’t hurt either


This reminds me, I posted this in a thread a few weeks ago:


quote:

I’ve had a top 5 players since the beginning of the Championship era list for a long time, but it’s getting too tough now, have to make a top 5 offense and defense:


Offense:
1. Josh Reed
2. Leonard Fournette
3. Jamarcus Russell
4. Jarvis Landry
5. Rohan Davey (Burrow on his heels )

Defense:
1. Tyrann Mathieu
2. Marcus Spears
3. Laron Landry
4. Devin White
5. Bradie James (Delpit comin atcha)

Propaganda machine out in full force. We’ve seen this movie before. “Spring practice offense showing creativity and looking awesome”. Alabama game same year....goose egg. We still have the same unable to adjust in-game OC calling the plays.
