So do you believe that AJ can be as good as Dak?


really can't compare because of the systems they're in. Dak is in a coach-driven offense that must have a QB who can perform within the system for the team to be successful. Assuming he does, he receive great accolades and be seen as an accomplished QB. LSU puts more on the QB to manage the game vs. carrying the team.

Recruiting rankings are dumb, and it continually amazes me how much stock people put into them. There are way too many variables and unknowns that go into how a recruit eventually pans out that grading them is an absolute crap shoot. The only thing the star system does is generate revenue for the websites that put them out.


I certainly have to agree. at least to an extent. many of the highly ranked guys pan out well and many of the lowly ranked do not. but there are a lot of miscues on rating 17 yr olds whos main physical and emotional development are yet to come.

Jennings from Ga and Dakota from La. That's part of the reason. HS ball in Ga is slightly over-rated and in La it's under-rated IMHO. Also, remember that Jennings was rated for running a true spread offense in HS which he does not get to run at LSU. Same for Harris.
