Maybe we could call him by his name, and not little Nuss. I think Little Marco every time I hear Little Nuss. Does not exude strength or power.

Haven strikes me as a kid who wants to go OOS. It'll take a pretty big NIL to keep him home.


I expect Haven to generate Underwood type NIL. Probably not as much, but every big school will be throwing bags at him.

Houston would come to LSU in a heartbeat if we made a serious push. Personally, I like him better than Haven.

I like Houston. He's put up gaudy numbers at Evangel so you know he can sling it.

Colton is the most ready to play. And while not a dual threat QB, his game reminds me of Josh Allen, sneaky fast.

Colton is rated more on pedigree than performance at this point. This should be his breakout season as a Jr so there will be more tape to evaluate him. On3 has him at 6'3.5 and 200lbs so he's already bigger than Nuss which is a plus.

I'd be happy with any of the 3, but don't want to put so much NIL towards Haven that it affects the roster build.

Nuss is a top 100 player, top 10 QB in his class, a safe choice to not transfer out, and should save you some money in NIL. He's the best choice by far.

,Maybe the coaching staffs opinion on Haven and Houston isn't as high as ipodkings.

I like Houston also, before NIL could've possibly gotten both .

I like Houston too. He gives off Cam Ward vibes, but I worry about his size and durability once he gets to college. Nuss and Haven are big dudes that will continue to fill out as they mature. Neither are as polished as Houston right now, but both have higher ceilings in college.

If Lester Earl doesn't like this, you know it's the right choice.

I hope we're recruiting (2) QBs for the 2027 class.

Maybe so. It would be nice to see how he produces next season though. Last season:
Colton: 2k yards 16 TDs/3 INTs 2 rush TDs
Houston: 4500 yds 38 TDs/6 INTs 7 rush TDs
Haven: 3K yds 37 TDs/7 INTs 19 rush TDs (also had a previous season of 2200 yds 35 TDs/3 INTs and 12 rush TDs)
