The one thing that scares me about Brennan is his size, not sure if he will be durable enough.
Yet Narcisse who was playing against similar competition and spent much more of that time injured is? Not everything about propensity for injury is related to size.

I'm not pulling for either. I just hope we have a productive offense next year, along with 99% of non-rant Tiger fans.

If LN can throw then he easily gives us the best chance to win the west and there is no debating it.
So you're saying that throwing accuracy and physical attributes are the only determining factors of whether an SEC QB will be successful?



Yeah, ok. Well, I'd rather see how it all plays out including live game performance instead.

Similar? I wouldn’t go that far.

I kinda hope McMillan pulls it out just to see the factions pissed off.
That would be sweet, even more so if he leads us to an SEC CG and playoff berth.

TW, Hurts isn't an accurate passer, that's why he's on the way out.


but Tuoviso is an accurate passer and can also run. Just because a QB can run doesn't always mean he can't pass also.

Nonetheless, given the fact that Lowell is probably more accurate than Myles is already and the fact that he is astronomically far stronger and more athletic
OK, I give up.

Since you're obviously not debating at this point and only trying to accomplish an objective, I'll stop trying to use logic such as, "Brennan broke Manning's passing records in Mississippi, but LN is probably more accurate, based on what?"

Sad that QB (and sometimes WR) competitions so often seem to devolve into a race thing on this board.

Brennan did not break Manning passing records, he broke Brett Farve and Dylan Favre passing records in Mississippi. Mannings are from Louisiana. Get it right.

I also disagree with the statement that he’s more susceptible to injury. He’s thicker, stronger, and 40 lbs. heavier than Brennan, and its lean muscle
You obviously have not dealt with high level athletes. Part of the recruiting process is knowing their injury history. Prior injuries are the biggest predictors of future injuries, much more so than physical attributes. Some athletes are just prone to injuries, whether they are 350# linemen or 167# point guards.

I'm not saying that LN should not be the starter based on that, but I am saying that if you were betting on who would be more likely to get injured again, the smart money would not be on Brennan.

It's not about size, it's about exposure. They are cutting more, getting hit more, etc. You are simply running an offense that exposes the QB more. The fact that we have so few QB's, makes it insanely risky to name LN the starter, build an offense around him, and then Brennan leave. And then, LN go down. If I'm the coach, and have the expectations and pressure of the LSU fan base, NO WAY I do it.


So let's just put them in wheelchairs and tell them to get after it with reckless abandon. Yeah, let's just shoot ourselves in the foot, rather than being good, because something bad might happen to lessen our needless fears so we can all sleep better at night, rather than winning. Even though most athletes end up with stronger knees post surgery than before surgery.

Moreover, I watched and rewatched that O post-practice press conference several times trying to hear him say specifically that one of the two of them is likely to transfer, and that's not what O said at all.

Indeed, all he said was he had a couple of names of QB transfers he was looking at. He was asked their names and when he would possibly sign them, and he responded, after the spring we will have time to look into the situation.

And then suddenly several reporters were claiming falselly that O suggested that one of our two QBs will transfer. That's a gigantic leap of faith if there ever was one because that is not what O said at all.

I wish Orgeron would never have said that. This is going to be a thing for the next 5 months. He could've easily been talking about McMillan.


He didn't say that one of the two QBs would transfer at all. That's fake news. He said he had a couple of names of possible QB transfers. He was asked for their names and when he would possibly sign one of them. O responded that he would have to wait until after Spring practice to look into it further. That's all he said about that and nothing more.

Then the next thing you know, the Morning Advocate is reporting that one of the QBs could possibly transfer after the Spring only because O said he had a couple of names of possible QB transfers possibly transferring. Which is a gigantic leap of faith if there ever were one.

Yeah but his replacement is also a very mobile dual-threat QB that is very accurate and in fact he won the natty with a perfect pinpoint pass.

Most LSU fans that hate dual-threats like you automatically associate every dual-threat QB LSU is looking at with being either JJ or Brandon Harris.

Meanwhile, JJ was listed as a pro-style drop back QB out of high school and Brandon Harris was barely mobile. In fact, it was a tremendous stretch to even claim he was a dual threat. As Danny Etling was more mobile than Harris.

Not to mention, that it has been years since a pro-style immobile QB has won a Natty. Most of the QBs that have won Nattys in recent years have all been very mobile dual-threat QBs. The game has evolved.

Lowell Narcisse will be Brandon Harris 2.0. Gonna be a lot of disappointed and clueless "18 and Unders" (That have never played a down of organized football in their lives) when it all goes down. And it will go down like that.


See what I mean. All dual threats are all Brandon Harris or JJ according to you geniuses. Meanwhile, none of you geniuses have ever seen Narcisse play. Dual threats to you Einstein's automatically means bad passers. Go tell that to Tua over at Alabama or Deshaun Watson at Clemson. Were they also Brandon Harris reincarnated? Give me a freaking break.

Yes, those 7 on 7's are most definitely the ultimate provider of evidence of sure fire QB accuracy in an SEC game.


Nobody said that. However, Narcisse's 7 on 7 videos are better than Brennan's 7 on 7 videos. Of course, he was playing with and against better players too than the Brennan 7 on 7 videos.

Yeah, he broke the record, but in Mississippi Catholic League.

Not to mention, that not too many recruiters put too much stock in that accomplishment, as Narcisse received offers from all the elite schools, whereas Brennan's most elite offer was from LSU.

if Narcisse can pass as well as Myles, then he will win the QB battle because he can scramble and run the ball astronomically far better than Myles.


This would be true if all a QB had to do was scramble and throw.

Oklahoma St pushed for Brennan.

Pretty sure they know how to have successful QBs.

I get what you’re saying though. Brennan really blew up late.

I have been back and forth on who I prefer to be the quarterback. I really do prefer dual threat QBs in college, but I am still more impressed by the way Brennan throws the ball. Of course if Narcisse can throw as well he most likely starts. His injuries are much more concerning than people who bring up Brennan’s size. His size has never been an issue and he has continued to put on weight. Lowell has all the size you could want and has suffered two major injuries, while Brennan being very thin and played in the SEC as a freshman has not had any issues.

I truly don’t care who starts as long as they are the best. I am just relunctant to believe any buzz or hype any more on any quarterback till we see it.
