Sign King just to keep him away from othe SEC West teams -- Kiffin, Leach, Fisher. Not too worried about him at Arkansas. He will hate sitting behind Brennen and quit after game 2 anyway.

I think Brennan can be serviceable more than likely. Maybe throw for 30Tds & have his moments. But CFB playoff history tells us having a QB that isn’t a running threat severely lessens your chances of playing in the final 4.

He’ll have excellent skill players for the most part, ,but will replace a ton on defense & 2-3 OL. Is he talented enough to make up that gap? Prob not.

Sure, the success of every season does not hinge on whether you make it there or not. But a guy like King gives you a better chance.

Citing his stats against better opponents is short sighted. It’s like the people that thought 2018 10-3 LSU was the same as 2015 10-3 LSU. Don’t miss the process while you focus on the results.

So here's a take a haven't heard. I have only watched him play a few times, so admittedly not a ton.

I don't think he has a future as an NFL QB, however what about as an APB - I think he has all the traits for that.

I would work to convince him of that and bring him in as a APB to work for his future in the NFL, which is undoubtedly where he wants to go.

First off I'd much rather someone who can throw it against anyone than someone who struggles to throw at times 10x/10x. Second off not sure why you think brennan is immobile, he ran for over a thousand yards in high school too. He can keep defenses honest there. He isnt King running the ball by any shape of the imagination but king is like a poor man's Jalen Hurts and we all saw how he did in the playoffs

Hmmmm. Jordan Jefferson, Anthony Jennings, Brandon Harris, Justin McMillian, etc. How great were their HS stats? Did they pass for 15,000 yards and 165 TD's like Brennan?

In 3 years as a varsity starting QB, Brennan rushed for 1141 yards and 23 TD's.

Dude you just need to STFU, and quit showing your stupidity for all to see. As Ron White said You Can't Fix Stupid.

That means he performed under par against those teams
Those are the type if teams he would be playing in the sec
Doesn't matter cause he isn't coming to lsu

Because football is a team sport,and maybe those better teams had better supporting casts. At LSU he would have an equal,or in some cases a better supporting casts.

Well yea, no shite, who wouldn’t in a vacuum?


Considering Kings running abilities & you are looking at a different kind of playmaker.

Lol come on, do you really think they are going to design plays for Brennan? Lol

Jalen Hurts led 3 teams to the CFB playoff

You’re proving my point for me. QBs with Brennan’s profile have not nearly been as fruitful at doing the same.

The running threat is huge & will show in the passing game too. With LSU’s athletes?? My god. Dangerous. You lack foresight.

Because he will be playing with 4 nfl skill players at a given time? Within a great offensive system orchestrated to his strengths by joe Brady?


Look at Lamar Jackson’s game logs and focus on his throwing stats on a game by game basis. He won a Heisman & is going to be the nfl mvp. There are other ways to impact a game other than throwing for 75%.

Ride Brennan next year and make sure you finish the job with Caleb Williams. It's up to Brennan whether Williams takes his job or not.

Or broken down to 27 yards per game

Stop trying to perpetuate this dumb arse take. Myles Brennan is not a dual threat QB

Is Lamar Jackson NFL MVP taking the Ravens to a Superbowl?
Did the mobile Trevor Lawrence run to victory over LSU last night?
Did Justin Fields at Ohio State run to victory over Clemson?
Did Jalen Hurts at Oklahoma run to victory over LSU?

I've seen all the running QB's I care to see coem through LSU during the Miles area. I'll take an accurate passing QB with a little mobility over running QB's that lack accuracy. D'Eriq King can head anywhere but Baton Rouge. He doesn't fit our system which is PASSING the ball down the field.

Exactly. He's a PASSING QB, like a Drew Brees. A passing QB with an accurate arm is what this offense is designed around. Miles recruited dual threat QB's that were 1 threat. They couldn't throw worth a damn.
