Tennessee fans seem to think they are now in the mix for Akers.

this regime is just not off to a good start. I don't get how you give the cold shoulder to the best QB prospect we've had in a while that really wants to be here. Unbelievable.

While I don't agree with the Brennan mishap by our staff, I don't understand all the bitching, moaning and whining about it like the world has ended. He's just a recruit not an actual player at LSU that has proven he can play.
How many were touting Jarrett Lee, Hayden Rettig, Anthony Jennings and Brandon Harris as our savior at QB? How did those work out? It's a crap shoot an the kid has proven nothing other than in a pinball style offense in hs. Even the rankings sites differ on his ability and none have him ranked where many in our fanbase would rank him. Maybe, just maybe O(and whomever else contributed) isn't as high on him as others on or formerly on the staff.
Also what O did by offering Tua isn't a crime or even a bad move. Many feel he's the best qb in the class and maybe O does as well. Maybe he's just trying to get the best of the best based on his thinking. These kids change their minds all the time, take visits and decommit yet it's acceptable but coaches can't offer another kid? To me the whole situation is ridiculous from all sides. O for at least not communicating first (if that's how it happened) and the Brennan for acting like he's the only qb in the country LSU should like.

Cam Akers update! by IgotKINGfisherSpeedSo offering another QB is a sign of betrayal. He's ok with Narcisse but not the other kid from Hawaii. I guess he thinks he's better than Narcisse and could beat him out easily. I don't blame O for seeing if the Hawaii kid was interested. I would want my hand picked guy behind center, because I'll be the one getting the blame if the QB position fails.
Don't you get it ? It's the fact O is openly courting a completely different style QB than Brennan's style. O should have kept his mouth shut, and just let it become obvious in recruiting what his schemes will be. I would like to think we will hire an OC who can run more than one style of play, and let the players dictate what system we run,

You do realize most recruits have already decided where they want to go or leaning by this time?
This is the time you put in the work and get those recruits interested.
Wait until a few weeks before signing day and it's probably over.

thanks for the info. Absolute shame what Coach Oeaux has done with Brennan, LSU continues to screw up our QB situation just blows my mind.

If that's the case he's in for a rude awakening. Narcisse is one of the most gifted athletes I've ever seen come out of LA

Being a great recruiter as a position coach does not even remotely equate to hauling in an even, highly rated class across offense/defense/ST as the head man.
Know how I know that you don't know shite about recruiting? Because you're talking about a guy who's been the "recruiting coordinator" at LSU and USC as if he doesn't have any idea how to recruit positions other than DL.

Sorry but this is bullshite. You ain't getting a top rated QB who is already commuted to Bama to flip when you have shown him no interest all year and only offer him a month before he signs.

If he can stay healthy, which is a legitimate concern.
