Please go actually watch him and don’t just look at rankings. He’s not that good. Very much a project

I’ve seen Haven play. Throwing motion is terrible. He’ll struggle in the SEC. Dunham plays at Catholic early next season so that’ll be an interesting test.

This is not sour grapes, I really think Houston is clearly the better player.

Haven played significantly better against common opponent (LCA) in a game with more stakes.


It’s not just measurables.

With that said it’s a fools errand stressing about these guys this far out.

Sorry, he will be playing against LSU. The best I can hope for him is that he is able to walk off the field when time expires. His presence or absence will neither make or break LSU football.

Behind an awful OL. They gave up almost 40 sacks and this kid is agile.

From what I understand, family is very high maintenance... that is a recipe for trouble

Pop Houston looks like he's custom built for a Lane Kiffin offense!

Who cares. Wherever he signs, he'll transfer before playing any real snaps. Even if he starts as a freshman, no Fs given.

Haven’s throwing motion makes him the same height as Pop. I know Philip Rivers got away with it…..but this kid needs to work on his mechanics. He’s very talented, and it will be fun to watch him wherever he goes.

I believe we will be just fine. With Lane Kiffin I trust.

I have observed that 4 of the five star QB’s from last year all entered the portal. That is the new trend.
Every starting QB on the final 4 teams came from the portal
We got two heisman QB’s from the portal
I used to lose sleep over signing a top notch HS QB. Now i could care less. If they don’t play year 1 they leave.


Joe Burrow was not from the portal.

I mean he transferred is what I'm sure the premise was and not recruited and stayed since high school.
