I could see Myles starting and somebody else getting better and taking over sometime into the season. All depends of mb performance and how others progress.

Based on the rep distribution, it seems obvious to most that the other two are already better and have already taken over so not sure I can envision that scenario you laid out

This is a sport where you should realize by now that nothing is guaranteed.

MB is a heck of QB! Look no one is ever going to be the next Joe Burrow but what MB did after Burrow left was pretty impressive. If you compare the beginning of MB's LSU career vs the beginning of Burrow's LSU career MB beats Burrow. Now that's not to say that MB would grow as much as Burrow did but the talent level is right there with Burrow. If MB is beat out of the QB spot this year then LSU should have a tremendous year!

Well how do you feel about John Gordon Mckernan ? .. he went to grade school & HS on campus and still never got a chance to start.. and if it goes that way for the kid from MS, it doesnt mean they are bad kids, just they were not good enough to start at a top tier SEC program, just like thousands of other QBs

It was 3 games with no drop off on the offensive side of the ball which is impressive being Joe Burrow was the QB the year before!! How did the offense perform the rest of the season with MB out??

Well this simply isn’t true. Some of you remember those stretch a lot differently than it actually happened

We played 3 of the leagues worst defenses and our offense struggled on 3rd down and in crucial game situations consistently. We put up some big passing numbers because we still had a loaded skill position room and we had a half awake PGC/OC/HC who decided they wanted to throw every down.

Saying that had no drop off from 2019 is utterly insane we went 1-3 for gods sake. And yes the defense was bad but if we had a 2019 level offense it wouldn’t have mattered

We scored a lot vs the bad teams and a little vs the good teams. MB had the benefit of not playing any of the good teams. Not to mention that left us with 2 true freshman QBs that had no business being out there yet, it’s hard to say that’s a fair comparison

But again if that small sample size was enough to convince you, then I don’t see how you arent just as hyped about Max Johnson based on his own performance that lead to some great paper stats

I would hate it for MB , too but those are the breaks. The best QB needs to be the starter. That may very well be Brennan, but only if he deserves it based on what the coaches think he brings to the team. All the rest of that stuff is only relevant if they need a tie breaker and there rarely, if ever, are ties in this sort of competition.

I feel the same way, 3 games against trash opponents during which we went 1-2. For whatever reason, Myles is held in much higher regard now than he was 2 years ago. After the Missouri game, nobody was praising him and speaking as highly of him as they are now

People wanted him on the stake following the MIss State game. And the Mizzou game was not taken as some beautiful Myles Brennan game either

I mean wasn’t Mizzou the game we went 3/14 on third downs for?

Myles hasn’t bitched the other times he’s been beat out. Dude just goes on with his life. Can’t knock him.



With the WR we have on the roster he should be the starter.
I feel like when BK wanted Jaydento transfer here he always going to be the starter. That is the kind of QB they like.
It's not WR friendly.

Dumb Take, LOL!! I never said Myles is starting, Nuss or Daniel’s. Go watch his presser with an open mind. He specifically states that he wants to run the ball by controlling the line of scrimmage while using a tight end. A tight end has stepped up and impressed him. If that’s not available then he is open to spreading the field. You guys are reading way too much into who is running with the first unit after less than two weeks of practice.
Whoever Kelley starts Is going to be what gives the team the best option to win.

We went 5/17 on 3rd down against Mississippi State and 0/10 on 3rd down against Missouri - didn't convert 1 3rd down the entire game. The way that people are talking about Myles right now is completely different from how most LSU fans felt about him back in 2020. This is absolute lunacy

it's not just 2 weeks, they had all spring practice too.

The coaches already know what each QB can do.

Can’t wait until it’s week 8 with Nuss/Daniels starting every game and you guys chiming in with a “yeah I think we’re clearly just saving Miles for the home stretch. No need to waste him for the schedule we’ve had so far, he’ll be starting next week for sure”

You either on drugs, drunken hungover, or just crazy as shite. Tell me where I advocated that MB was starting. I just said go watch the clip and Kelley tells you what he would like to do. “Run the ball controlling the line of scrimmage using a tight end. If he cannot do that then he is open to spreading the field with 5 wide receiver sets”.
If he can do the first then he will select the best QB to execute the offense. If he goes to 2nd option he will use the best QB to execute that offense.
I can give two shits who the starter is as long as we win. I wanted Kelley as the coach when Saban left and now we have him as our head coach. He is going to win big Baton Rouge. Give him time.

It appears I misinterpreted your post. When I go back and read the message I replied to, it does come off as though you’re one of the people who have been claiming today that this is all some big ploy to hide the real starter and Myles is locked in. If you go back to that post, I’m sure you can see how I interpreted that way (not drunk, yet). But alas my bad for misunderstanding your point

I stand by the post in general tho, there definitely are people in here that refuse to see the obvious evidence that’s in their face and the bargaining of coming to terms with the reality of MBs situation is pretty comical to see. Again not directed at you since that was not your intention

I always love to hear the old cliche that the coaches know more or know best. Are they human, do they ever make a mistake? Just because they get paid like supernatural deities, doesn't mean they are one. Kelly seems to not trust the offensive line and wants a mobile quarterback. Myles isn't that. So why did Kelly recruit him back out of the transfer portal? I would feel a little bit betrayed if I was Myles.
