Would LSU have been better starting Myles Brennan vs Danny Etling in 2017?

Nah. Myles weighed what? A buck fifty when he got here? Regardless we were still running 2 wides I formation in 17. Wouldn’t have made a difference

Nah, while Danny Etling wasnt the most talented guy, Myles was far from ready.
Myles was only a freshman and weighed somewhere between 170-180. Against two pretty bad teams, Troy and Syracuse, he threw 1 TD and 2 Ints.
Danny Etling was a game manager at best, but he didn't turn the ball over much and was a senior who knew the offense.

He wasn’t ready. Might have been another Jarret Lee situation where he develops bad habits because he was thrown in too early.

No one on here knows. Only the coaching staff does, and they started Etling.
This is a dumb thread.

First off, Danny Etling was not a bad quarterback.
Secondly LSU’s biggest problem with QB’s from 2008-2015 was having to put guys in before they were ready and they developed bad habits that were never able to be fixed by either the players or the coaching staff.
Third if LSU has an established starter coming back for 2018 do you think Joe Burrow comes to LSU?

Why would Burrow come to LSU with a returning starter in Brennan?

Have you never watched "back to the future"? You don't go change things that led up to last year !!!

Looking back at it, with the offensive scheme and personnel I thought Etling did a damn strong job in 2017.....hell, in 2016 I still believe that having Etling as a competent QB saved the season.
Apparently he was also a tough mutha frikka

Etling was unparalleled in his ability to get absolutely rocked and get back up and throw the ball again like nothing happened.

Brennan in 2017 was no where close to where he is today. He's really worked on his "happy feet" in the pocket and the game has really seemed to slow down for him. He looks much more comfortable and really needed those few years of development.
Say they did throw the weight of the team on his shoulders in 2017, it may have hindered his development. No QB would want to start in 2017 and then get benched to a grad transfer from Ohio for 2 years either. Just imagine a 6'4" 245lbs DE come around the corner and tee him up causing an injury then now you have a shaken up, young QB who now has to spend his time recovering instead of learning. We didnt have enough pieces of the puzzle around the team in 2017 for Brennan to have made such a dramatic difference. Just too many things to go wrong.

If LSU is starting a true freshman in 2017 it is possible that Burrow doesn't end up in BR.
