Last spring game he over threw a pass on a wide receiver screen. That’s easiest pass in the playbook.
One missed pass? That happens, even on easy passes

I think he was limited to roll out passes and was not a good qb in the pocket.
In which spring game? He made several pocket passes in this past spring game, including at least 1 long drop back TD pass and another that was dropped by the receiver.

He should stop recruiting DT Quarterback!!
Interesting tidbit, Burrow was a listed as a dual threat QB out of HS.

If you watch his highlights he is a pretty good runner. The difference is I believe he can read a defense and has more accuracy than we usually see from a dual threat qb.

You realize Dual threat means they can run and throw right? The QBs you listed can only run and sucked at passing. I love how people look at the label dual threat and think that it means all they can do is run. Deshaun Watson, Jamies Winston, stidham, Tua, Drew Brees (in college), Mariota, Tannehil, Dak, etc were all Dual threat QBs. You’re a moron if you think LSU will stop recruiting Dual threat QBs because of their past failures recruiting the position. They need someone to develop QBs, end of story.
Not only that, the style of offense we used was garbage for guys who ran better than they passed or were just a raw QB all together. No coaching and then a guy who relies more on his running in an old school pro style offense, does not mesh.
Bama has modernized their pro style along with Michigan St (who did it a while ago). LSU has sat on its hands and expected to out talent everybody.
Take Lamar Jackson for example. A pro style guy in Petrino decided to open up his offense, and it showcased Jackson's talents.
Gary Patterson has went straight to dual threat and spread offenses over the past 4 after running strictly pro style before that. Has won at least 11 games in 3 of the past 4 years.

Etling (white) was a dual threat and was still a strong runner with good speed and much better passer than LSU fans want to give him credit for. Burrow (white) also can be considered a dual threat. Peter Parish (black) is a dual threat QB commit in the 2019 class who can run and still also throw. We have a Pro style QB on the roster right now, Brennan (white) who is a much better passer than runner but is not the statue that Mettenburger was. We have a Dual threat already committed to the 2020 class TJ Finley (black) who is also dual threat.
So black or white can still be dual threat if that is the issue. I think the Ensminger/Orgeron philosophy on QB's is to try to recruit top quality QB's that can run the offense and help LSU win football games regardless of categories that certain fans may or may not want. That is why we recruit, as you say, "dual threat" QB's.
edit: just wanted to add one thing: OP is a retard.

Joe Burrow was the #8 DT QB in his class.........ranked ahead of a guy named Lamar Jackson........

True, but a mobile QBis good to have if you run A heavy RPI offense and the other team runs man defense.

Dual threat carries such a negative meaning for so many on here.
Some prior dual threat quarterbacks:
Robert Griffin, III
Cam Newton
Rick Stanzi
Jake Locker
Zac Robinson
Chase Daniel
Case McCoy
Teddy Bridgewater
Vince Young
Tim Tebow
I’m quoting myself from a thread from 2012. Nothing new ever happens around here.

Well said. You hit “the nail on the head “ sir.

Brandon Harris was terrible. He proved it at both LSU and UNC.
Narcisse is simply inaccurate and chose to leave after a redshirt/rehab year at LSU. He quit. He was not run off.
McMillan transferred out after trying to play after 3 years and graduated.
Scott was simply not what LSU wanted at QB. Probably should never have been signed by LSU.
Regarding Orgeron, he didn't recruit any of the QBs you mentioned so what is your point?
