He was accepted to Harvard. He's smart.
So he can learn the play book.

If he can hit open receivers,

Pretty sure he was referring to the 3 star Heisman comment.

I have hopes for him on the football field, and I do trust he is more talented than the scouting services gave him credit for.

But be that as it may, if he never starts, he is definitely going to be an asset to your program - on and off the field.

As much as I want to win and be productive, it is important to understand the added quality that comes with certain players and people. It is the same in the business world.

I am very happy he has chosen to play for the boot - I like the pride.

I have high expectations for L.S.

Why, bc I don't automatically buy in to the fact that an undersized qb, that was previously committed to the powerhouse known as Syracuse is best hs qb in the nation?

None, that's why I asked the question Einstein.

Below are Scott's highlights from the O-D All-American Bowl. May sound like a crummy high school all-american game, but they actually attract a lot of D1 talent. Many of the participants are 3* athletes. Jamal Pettigrew played in the game as well. Scott makes some really impressive throws.

Just announced.....

I actually agree with you. In these days of CFB, aside from 2-3 schools (or coaches), you pretty much have to hitch your wagon for 1-2 cycles to one 5 star (or simply highly rated) QB; if he doesn't pan out, you are screwed, and their is so much emphasis on not "breaking" a kid like that. I'm not downing (or hyping) anyone here, but there is simply less pressure with the guys we have signed the past 2 years A guy like Scott (and to a lesser extent, McMillan), there is no pressure, there is no sense of entitlement. These kids have to work their way to where they want to be, and feel the full force of competition. Isn't that what we have been missing at LSU, A QB that plays as if there is no pressure on him. By the way, did you guys see the video of Scott after he signed? The kid was downright giddy talking about the other recruits in the class. I get the impression he knows he just has to give these guys the ball to make himself successful.

Moreover, with kids like this you can be a little less gun-shy about losing them in 1-2 years if they aren't the starter, and I think that is going to be the deferred payment from QB recruiting the last 2 cycles. Give me a guy like McMillan and Scott as a 4th or 5th year QB (even if they have never started a game) over a green QB like Franks or even Patterson. We have been missing that on our team, at every position, Senior leadership is why this team has underachieved, and we are slowly getting it back. You want to compare us to Alabama? The talent we recruit is really no different in terms of ability, but they have manged to have a SR (or at least 4th yr) player become an All American nearly every year for 8-10 seasons.

hey yall! damn all the dumb shite! Lets get geared up to kick everybody's arses. Who we lost is who is lost. We got a top 5 recruiting class, and a QB who would be is 4 or 5* in Scott (-minus two inches in height). Today recognized by Parade All American. Spring practice. Summer Camp. Fall Camp. Then kick arse!
