re: Are we seeing a paramount shift in QB recruiting?

Was referring to Cam Newton for one.

Make no mistake DT or Pro style, you have to have a stout OL and that has been the problem.

I think we addressed that this year and I think the offense will improve over the next few years.

I rather the DT personally. A lot of the bigger schools have had success with them. As long as they are accurate passers the running is just a bonus. Seeing the whole field and checking down equals success.

You know what these guys have in common, they are all dual threat, all top passers, and all won their division or conference.

Nothing is wrong with dual threats. As a matter of fact, unless you have an Alabama level of defense like in 09, 11, and 12, you better have a dual threat if you want to win the championship. Don't believe me, look at the history of college football at least dating back to the 90s. If they weren't a top level defenze, or had a dual threat QB, they didn't win shite.

LSU gets too many project dual threat QBs with no one to develop them. Now that we have Cam, we should see marked improvement. Also, it does have something to do with the puckered a-hole of an offensive scheme we use.

I don't care how you classify the QB recruit. I would just like to see CLM get someone that can actually play the position well. Facets of the recruiting, offensive scheme and level of development have all been poor or inconsistent dating back to 2007.

They obviously must have liked his ball security on hand-offs

Paradigm. The word you're looking for is paradigm. The word paramount means "most important" or "of the highest importance." Paradigm, on the other hand, means "a model" or "a worldview or set of theories."

Exactly Sir.

All DT QB means is he's an athlete. Russel Shepard comes to mind.
