If Rettig is indeed the starter, I just hope he's better than his brother

If Rivers was better than his brother, we wouldn't be having this discussion.

I will never understand how you people annoint these guys as superstars before ever even hitting the field. If lsu wins i dont give a shite who is qb. i dont care if he throws like shite and cant run as long as we win. When the hell did winning start taking second place to stats?

There is no back-up at this point ignorant arse, Les has been clear that there will be an open competition for QB.


Of course there's a backup. Brandon Harris hasn't practiced yet, so it's not him yet. The starter is AJ regardless of what Les says. The only guy who is a (slight) threat to unseat AJ is Harris.

BTW, why the name-calling? I got feelings, you know!

I know the OP is trolling. You on the other hand had to announce your ethnicity and profess your love of Anthony Jennings in depth. If you are trolling, my apologies. You definitely play the part of a mouth breathing moron well.

You are right I shouldn't have called you an ignorant arse. After reading the above post you are so far beyond ignorant arse that I can't come up with an appropiate name for you. I actually love the post. "I dont care what Les says,the back-up is who I say it is" is basically what you posted.

I don't see it. He's erratic and inaccurate. Needs a lot of work on mechanics with Cam. He has an absolute cannon though.

I don't think it's a foregone conclusion like many on here seem to think. I think Rettig redshirted because of his injury and the act he needed work under center. Also Jennings was #2 because he brought some thing to the table the starter did not. Whoever Cam chooses will be deserving.

Nobody knows who'll start next year.
Lets all be happy there is an open competition and best guy will win spot.

Let's pick and choose our fav QBs without ever seeing then play. True rant fashion.

Jennings was more game ready as a true freshman. That doesn't really mean he's "better".


That actually does mean he's better. Now Rettig can get better and be better than him, but it was Jennings who rose above Rivers, and it was Rettig who was reported to be way behind the first 3 QBs. I like that both are mobile. I like that Jennings is accurate with great pocket presence, and Rettig has a big arm, we'll see who comes out on top. I think Harris owns it in 2016 though. I expect 3500 total yards from him when Cam finishes working his magic.

obviously.

my point is that if you lose the battle especially freshman year it doesn't mean jack shite. these are 18 year olds who will mature mentally and physically in the next year or two.

some come in already having maxed out there potential - some continue to grow and mature.

crowing Jennings anything right now calling anything suggesting otherwise a "troll thread" or something similar is ridiculous. not saying you were doing that but the thread is littered with that ridiculousness.

Our fans are ignorant, bitch about the coach because they don't know what else to complain about, but worst of all, they don't even show up to games.

I'm willing to bet you didn't even laugh out loud; you suck.

Same problems happen at other schools. Feel free to pull for another team though.
