Anyone else worried Max Johnson might transfer during offseason

I think this kid has a tremendous upside, but the reality is he's the third string QB at the moment. With Brennan returning next year, it doesn't appear anything will change going into next season unless Finley has a major collapse. I really don't want to lose him, but something tells me he's not going to sit around another year hoping to get a shot. Add Nussmeier to the equation and it's going to be a very crowded QB room.

It’s about number 10,000 on my list of things to worry about in 2020.

If Finley continues to improve and it looks like he is the starter following spring ball i can see Brennan transferring this year but I think Max Johnson will stick around for at least one more season.

It's a side-effect I'm willing to live with. Stack your position groups with talent and let the chips fall where they lay. If he gets pushed out because of inferior play I'll wish him the best and ride with who we end up with.

Someone is leaving between this year and next. There’s too much QB talent coming up.
Myles, TJ, Max, Nuss won’t all be here next year.

Way down on the list of priorities, but LSU is going to lose at least 1 QB and probably another. Just being real, if I had to pick who that would be it'd be Johnson.

If TJ is getting better and better and we have Brennan back, along with the freshmen coming, it would not be a concern.

Brennan is the starter next year and then it'll be between Finley and Garrett Nussmeier.

It is inevitable that one QB leaves when you sign two QBs in the same class

You expected Brennan for two years
With Finley and Johnson competing to replace him - edge to Finley
Who knows with eligibility rules due to covid - my guess is Johnson moves on at some point
Nuss and Howard will be next in line and you can stagger these two and let them compete once Finley moves on

I think it’s guaranteed one of them does. I think we know Brennan needs to be the starter and Nussmeier is coming in also next year. It’s bound to happen but I’m not going to lose sleep on losing a backup QB.

No doubt about it. He isn't even getting a chance.
Means we lose out on brother Jake as well
Wish the best for the both of them

I would bet with the guy coming in next year, Brennan staying and Finley getting the nod that MJ will be looking for a place to go.
Posted on 11/23/20 at 4:54 pm to Smell the crawfish
Normally I'd be concerned. Considering who's coming in the next couple of classes I'm not.

If he doesn't get a fair number of reps the rest of the year to show what he can do, I hope he is bright enough to transfer out to a program where he will get a real shot to play.
If Finley is given the starting job at the beginning of 2021, I hope Brennan leaves as well.

Nope not all. We have Brennan and Finley coming back plus Nussmeier.
Posted on 11/23/20 at 5:35 pm to Smell the crawfish
If he transfers, we still have Brennan, Finley, Nussmeier. He's likely 4th string next year. I'm not a fan of his, but it's not an insult. That's a damn good qb room.

Will really hate to see him go, but might be tough to get much playing time. MB does not lose an eligibility year, so Finley goes back to the bench. Afraid Max is just too talented to wait for, maybe, a single year.

I’ll be shocked if Max Johnson doesn’t transfer
Posted on 11/23/20 at 6:04 pm to Smell the crawfish
I would still like to at least get the opportunity to see what we have in Max before anointing TJ the successor. Losing Max means losing the #1 TE in the class next year too in his brother and it also means we can’t run any RPO because TJ is slow as molasses. I’m all for the better man winning and deserving the job but in a lost season I hope we get to see both to make the best decision.
