So for being bored sake, if Ryan Perriloux kept it together at LSU

Would he have been a combo of Newton and maybe Mett?
What was his ceiling in comparison to other players?

No, he wasn’t as big as either of those guys. Perriloux could have been more like Nick Marshall with better arm talent

He met his ceiling.

He plays the 2008 season. JL and JJ aren't pressed into action too early and don't have their confidence ruined. Les is still the Mad Hatter instead of trying to hide the QB.

quote:his ceiling would have been pretty low bc he was being coached by les frickin miles. Les had no passing scheme to help the qb nor any ability to develop a qb so the whole RP what could he have done is a sad consideration. Les would have ruined him at best.

He has always been my main argument for NOT paying the players. Was his likeness the reason for his popularity? Did the sell #11 jersey due to his name? ... nope! It was because he was the LSU QB. How many JSU jerseys did he sell?

LSU-wise? maybe 03 Mauck-ish with more rushing yards.
non-LSU, maybe the WIsconsin version of Russell Wilson.

I don’t know what RP could’ve done at LSU, but I know his dismissal started the QB curse that Joe Burrow finally ended.

I don’t understand why Les didn’t realize he simply could not afford to dismiss RP11. His eggs were all in that basket - we wanted him over Colt McCoy.
He knew that Hatch wasn’t an SEC QB and JL/JJ weren’t ready. At that point you just have to deal with the off the field nonsense and ride with your guy.
If he had the foresight to do this
08: 10-3 (losses to UGA and UFx2)
09: possible natty contender

Goddamn you.
Fine, I’ll bite.
I think he would’ve won the SEC and likely led us to repeat in ‘08. Don’t know bout Heisman, but wouldn’t be shocked if he’d torched the SEC and just ran away with it. Dude would’ve been scary good in ‘08. It’s crazy to think how that turn of events altered the course of our program and Les’ tenure at LSU. Wish so badly he would’ve wised up and done right. He would’ve been special.

Ryan and I played against each other in high school and I got to know him fairly well. No one loved RP more than RP loved himself. He was no doubt the most naturally talented player I ever saw in high school. Had he stuck around for those last two years, I seriously believe he could have been a high round pick. His work ethic and commitment to his teammates left a lot to be desired. He believed he was untouchable and it came back to bite him.

Perriloux was definitely the most talented q.b. to ever attend LSU.
it's a pitty that it was all below the shoulders though.

RP was a good runner but nothing crazy. He was on par with Joe Burrow as a runner and I could argue from looking at clips that Burrow had better instincts as a runner and he was for sure tougher. RP was a good passer also. I think he could have been first team all SEC as a QB but he wouldn't have been a All-American or anything like that. If he plays the 2008 season, I think they go 9-3 rather than 8-5. They beat Bama and they beat Arkansas. Now if he would have stayed for 2009, that is the year he could have made a huge difference. They might have run the table.

Not quite, but had he kept it together, Jordan Jefferson and Jarrett Lee could have waited their turn instead of being thrown to the wolves and we would have won more championships. For several years after Perriloux, Les Miles had all the pieces in place except for one - QB.

No. He was not that good in the 1st place and was overhyped as any athlete I’ve ever seen.
