So youre telling me, youd rather not risk bringing him in in fear of him being better than the others? I sure hope Daniels beats out Brennan and Nuss because that means hes THAT good. I doubt it happens but who knows.

Possibly. But that would be a dumb move. He's only a redshirt freshman. I don't think there are any elite programs where he would be the starter at this point.

His best bet is to get better, let Brennan and Daniels clear out of the program and then compete with Howard for the job, and then he can transfer after that with probably three years of eligibility left.

Agree. Brody Miller said on Colatta he wouldn’t be surprised if Brennan is back in the portal. In that scenario, Nuss is the backup this year.

Where can anyone go to be guaranteed to be the #1 QB? Southeastern?

I thought Brennan was likely headed to Southern Miss before he removed his name from the portal. They were playing position players at QB by the end of last season.

I don't think this has anything to do with brennan's injuries


Well Brennan has not taken a snap much less a hit in 2 years so I am definitely taking a wait and see approach. He had a serious abdominal injury and a serious shoulder injury so I am not anywhere near as confident in his ability to play just yet.

Does it matter? Transfer portal makes a lot of stupid moves which he'll probably do.

Brennan is getting the start unless this guy is lights out compared to him.
This is an entirely different staff. Brennan has started in 3 games and is immobile, and also coming off another injury. Both Denbrock and Kelly have used dual threat QBs for years and Daniels has started 29 games. Please explain to me what in the hell makes you think Daniels has to "light it up" to win the competition?

Think about this, picture Brennan on that ASU team and tell me what he would have looked like in 2021?

As long as Daniels shows that he has decent accuracy and can learn the playbook, he will get the job. Daniel's running threat already catapults him up before the competition even starts. In actuality, unless Brennan lights it up, there is no way he plays over Daniels.

Probably Brennans starts this year and Daniel, Nuss, and Manning battle it out for starting spot in 2023. Walker transfers out.

Daniels would greatly need to develop his accuracy to beat out Brennan for this season, but will get some PT situationally and packages.

Arch isn't coming to LSU. Truth is, he isn't going to college at all. He's so superfabulous talented, the NFL is changing their rules just for him, and he'll start for the Rams next year. He'll be inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame the following year.

I don't know maybe it's the fact BK himself convinced Brennan he needs him and wants him to stay? That might have something to do with it you know. What's he going to do? Bench him and watch another QB transfer in the fall? Unless Daniels comes in head over shoulders better than Brennan he's not starting over him. Plain and simple.

Brennan was melting SEC defenses in his few starts and he sure as hell can fire a beautiful deep ball off. The only sputters on offense was the bad calls in the red zone. Granted they were shite SEC teams but he has proven more than Daniels against SEC which is what matters. Some of you guys act like he's a scrub. Do you realize he was on a record pace before he got hurt? He was on record pace with an absolute dog shite team so I don't know where this "but Daniels had a shite ASU team" and acting like Brennan didn't. Brennan had more talent but as you saw the past 2 years that doesn't mean shite when you're bad like LSU was bad.

BK will give Brennan a shot before he will Daniels. He will play the best guy but the only way Daniels gets to start over him is if he's a clear cut better QB. Daniels may very well end up with it because we don't know what Brennan has left after coming off 2 major injuries. It might be nothing it might be something. We'll see. Don't act like just because Daniels is a more gifted athlete automatically = better QB. It doesn't. Sure, he's a 5* talent but it hasn't translated to college. Brennan melted in HS with records and what we saw in college he did the same thing. I can almost bet anything Brennan is the better pure throwing QB which sometimes matters the most. RPO offense doesn't = running QB automatically.

Brennan was the starter over Max Johnson for a reason until he got hurt.

Has Brennan melted any competition in college? He had one poor game, one okay game, and one good game.

Did he even beat out Max? Before his injury I really don't recall any indications whatsoever who was the starter. And even if so, is that much of an accomplishment? Max does well given his limitations, but he's a limited player in terms of high level College QB.

I expect each of the quarterbacks is planning to win the starting job.
I also expect there is a strong probability that only two of those guys will be here for the Fall.
If Daniels believes he is ready for the NFL, he is not going to sit and watch Brennan, IMO.
No one knows if Nuss is a potential starter. He may dedicate himself, as did Brennan, prior to 2019.
He could make a big move.

Yes. And that's a big risk. If Daniels (who has 2 years left) lights it up in spring, Brennan and Nuss could very well transfer. Then you have a true freshman as the only backup.
This is going to get some down votes because most of y'all hate this, but BK could use a 2 QB system. If Daniels and Brennan are both getting playing time and Nuss comes in late in games to close things out, I don't know that any of them will transfer. It's pretty clear that Brennan and Daniels have two very different styles. So, it might be worth considering.

2 QB systems are hard to pull off, but maybe we have enough coaching to do that. If so, it might be the only way to keep a few QBs to develop. It's a bit risky, but it might be better to keep some QBs and have them ready rather than having a new QB with nest to no experience every two years.

Let's see he gathered 1112 yards passing, 11 TDs, 3 ints, a passer rating of 163, 168, and 134 respectively. All on SEC teams and was sacked 7 times just in the Miss State game. I'd say yes, he melted especially considering his team was fricking awful around him especially oline. Keep in mind the defense was so bad he had zero run game help. That team was bad all year but by the end they were not the same team Brennan played with. His pace was record numbers. He had jitters first game because he had all that pressure on his shoulders but then he saw a big jump in progression once that first game was gone.

Yes..he was very good... with no previous starting experience... against good teams... But he will have to compete and win the job. This staff owes no one anything.
