“LSU did everything that they promised,” David Finley said. “They came and told TJ the truth. They went and told TJ we’re trying to sign the quarterback from Ohio State (Joe Burrow). If we get him he has two more years of eligibility and we won’t be looking for a quarterback in 2019. If you commit to us you’ll be able to come in as a freshman and win the job. When they got the transfer-student, everything fell in place for TJ there."


This also comes after Gunnell seemingly eliminated LSU.

I'd be VERY surprised if we don't take anyone this cycle.

I would as well

Though them actually telling this to a recruit is very interesting. Would not be a good look to Finley and his parents if they go against their word. Puts the staff in an interesting position.

No way would we be relying on a true freshman QB to start. Slight misunderstanding there.

wouldn't Brennan(if redshirt)/Narcisse still have 2 years eligibility left when he steps on campus?

So basically two recruiting cycles without signing a HS QB?

Don't know if I like that

Why? Why would he?

Burrow is going to shine and Brennan and Narcisse aren't jumping ship.

God some of your are insufferable.

You must sign a decent qb this cycle.

It would be incredibly stupid to not take a quarterback this cycle for a kid that won’t sign for nearly 2 years. I would be blown away if this happened.

Except that Finley won't win the starting job as a freshman unless he's superhuman or something, so that's a lie right there. By then Brennan or Narcisse if they haven't transferred should be firmly entrenched to take over as the starter.

If you assume Brennan red shirts this year, then yes 2, if he doesn't then 1

Narcisse would have 2 years remaining (redshirted 2017)

Saying TJ can come in and win the job is not guaranteeing him as the starter.

It's not a lie to say you need to come in and WIN the job. Doesn't everyone who lands a scholly need to come in and win their job? No guarantees, if you're that good you'll win it.

Moves like this is how we got into our current QB situation of needing a grad transfer to save our arse.

SIGN A QB EVERY DAMN RECRUITING CYCLE
