Huge arm, great deep ball, not afraid to throw it deep. He’s pretty much a more mobile Nuss.

Kid can play

Love that he gets to come here for a season to watch, learn and get better. Then take over in 2026 with starting SEC experience — at Texas, at UGA, at Ole Miss.

Then be all in on bringing Elijah Haven

The QB line of succession at LSU looks extremely promising

This is all about the future. Nice pickup for next yr and to push nuss some.

I would love to know how much nil they gave him.

There’s your backup QB and Collins replacement. One more box checked off. We still need players at many spots but we also have plugged a lot of holes these last 2 days.

I would absolutely assume the plan for him is to redshirt. Play in 4 games. Play in the bowl game in 2025, then be the frontrunner for the job in 2026

Well, 69 attempts for -12 yards last year (YPC -0.17).

Sure, sacks count against rushing yards in college, but those numbers do NOT indicate that he's a big threat to run.

But some HS film indicates that he might have some wheels. Definitely a big arm.
