Always had trouble gaining weight until I started going heavy w/ squats and just working hard on my legs. Gained easy 10+ lbs in 3-4 months.

I did the workout (long long ago) that I stated (minus the tess shots, but no reason he can't add them) and made huge gains in a relatively short time. I know its very retro old school and my body felt like it got hit by a truck and laid to waste after every workout but I gained much weight and strength. I don't see how it can be so hard for him to gain weight while at a big time program no matter his metabolism.

He’s always been too thin. I don’t know anyone on here who has said otherwise

He has a strong arm. If he has all of the mental tools and can take the pounding, why does his weight matter?

His weight isn’t a real issue that’s the point. Once again the fan base has been fed a load of you know what and just happily swallows it. Myles Brennan hasn’t been given a real chance because he was Canadas guy period.

Good lord that’s just stupid. Can’t believe some of you believe crap like this

Go watch the spring game, who did Brennan play with? When did he come in to play compared to the two other guys who we knew would never play here. If you can’t buy that it’s because of Canada then explain why we no longer run the jet sweep even though the year before Canada got here Ensminger ran it at least a couple times a game and it’s been our most productive run play. Last season Brennan was competeing with Etling, a New England Patriots draft pic, for the starting job into the season but he wasn’t ahead of McMillan and Narcisse? And is all of the sudden too slim to play? Lol I can’t believe some of you ppl believe crap like that.

No need for the insult, all it does is give weight to my position anyway. And for the record I’m a Burrow fan but that doesn’t mean I buy the events prior to his recruitment by LSU being fair to Myles Brennan.

Because its hard to optimize your mental tools and strong arm when youre getting broken in half by 240 lb linebackers every other play.

Pat white was a 175lb running QB in a time before helmet to helmet hits were outlawed and QB protection rules. This too skinny narrative is total bullshite. Again he wasn’t too skinny to play as a freshman so why after he’s gained some weight is he too skinny now?

Pat White was also shorter, fast, and mobile. He weighed like 5 pounds less than Brennan does and was 5 inches shorter. They're not even remotely comparable as players.
Brennan is still only 185 pounds and is 6'5". He's a beanpole that is a statue in the pocket. He will get broken in half by defenses like Alabama.

Brennan is 6-4 maybe which is 3inches taller than White not 5 and at least 10 lbs heavier. White carried the ball 684 times on rushes alone, that’s not sitting in the pocket where you’re protected that’s as a runningback. The too skinny theory cant be proven because it’s a lie. To say “they’re not even remotely comparable” is a dismissal tactic because you can’t refute the argument on its merits.

Pat White measured in at 6'0" at the NFL combine and weighed 197 pounds.
Brennan, currently, is listed in the LSU media guide is listed at 6'5" and weighs 183 pounds. I was being generous with White's weight because he weighed less than 197 most of his college career. But I don't know how you are able to take off 25 pounds from his weight to make him weigh 10 pounds less than Brennan. And the heights are pretty damn accurate at the combine unless you are trying to say Brennan is only 6'3" (he's not).

Taking blind shots by a defender is a completely different thing than carrying the ball and getting tackled. The weight theory is not a myth.

no, it's just the truth
Pat White also got abused once he started playing bigger, stronger players. His size was a concern as well. He didn't play against defenses like Alabama and Georgia in college. Brennan would.This post was edited on 12/20/18 at 11:22 pm

Some people fail to realize how incredibly hard it is to gain muscle mass in a short time without using enhancers. With his frame, the 7 or so pounds he has put on since he's been at LSU is no small feat. Yes, he has a long way to go in a not so long period of time. Maybe the guy's physiology isn't conducive to gaining muscle mass? Brennan seems to fit the description of an ectomorph. Does Moffitt's S&C program cater to different body types or is it the same for the entire team? Perhaps his diet isn't right for him? There are far too many variables to consider as fans unaware of his particular circumstance and training/nutritional history to make some definitive statement on what it will take for Brennan to put on sufficient mass. Maybe he is just a "late bloomer" in regards to the natural testosterone needed to put on mass and add strength and he'll start seeing significant results soon? Or maybe he needs the Cochran method? Time will tell.

You see what you’re doing here? You’re exaggerating facts. If you’re going to use college measurements for 1 guy you must use them for both because we all know you gain an inch in college. Pat whites West Virginia bio lists him at 6-1 so if Brennan is 6-5 in LSU’s bio pat white is 6-1. Your pocket hits are worse theory is also wrong, why do NFL teams avoid drafting or playing running QBs? Because when you leave the pocket you’re more likely to get hurt.

Oh he was? Like when he broke Sugar Bowl records against the bigger faster Georgia Bulldogs? The fact you didn’t even know he played against them proves you don’t even know what you’re arguing. I’m done, you’re just making stuff up and repeating shite you’ve heard here and haven’t given any thought to.
