We need to stop asking why when this is the answer to every question.

They tampering with Avery Johnson from KSU. That’s their target.

He’s not leaving K-state especially after how bad A&M’s offense was this year

How did Les Miles get all those stud receivers here when even their great grandma knew he would do that exact same thing?

Exactly, we all know it's about money, kids don't care about the NFL, that dream is at the bottom of their list, ask DK Moore.

I feel like people ask questions like this all the time even though they know the answer..

People are motivated by different things. Football players are no different. Some want to make the NFL and thus want great exposure. Some just want to be elite and thus want a great position coach. Some just want money. Some want to win the Heisman. Some just want to party and get laid. Some want an education. Some want it all, or a mix.

This is just human motivation. Not every player is thinking about their choice the way you do as a fan.

I never said he couldn’t improve, but he isn’t an elite passer and never will be…if $$$ isn’t the fundamental draw, then why would a WR who wanted to be showcased or pad stats for the NFL hang it all on someone who they “hoped to improve”

Same reason LSU had great WRs with below average QBs.

yall are straight crazy. This sounds like the delusional bullshite people said about Jayden Daniels. Marcel Reed as a redshirt freshman averaged almost 8 yards per attempt and threw 12 TD passes to 4 ints. He completed 61% of hia passes. He didn't even throw the ball 200 times. I would have killed for him to get paid to sit behind Nuss for a year.


@ Florida 11/17 (65%) 180 yards 2 TDs 13 cars 83 yards 1 TD

Vs LSU 2/2 70 yards 9 cars 62 yards 3 TD

@USCe 18/28 (64%) 204 yards 1 TD 16 car 46 yards

@ Auburn 22/35 (63%) 297 yards 3 TD 21 car 66 yards

While he only completed 50% vs Arkansas, he thrww 2 TDs and ran for another.


It's baffling how we can have Jayden Daniels for TWO years and LSU fans don't see the potential of Marcel Reed.
