last year at ASU, Jayden Daniels completed 66.2% of his passes, which was 27th best in the nation. Oh, and ran for 710 yards.
And Emory Jones for UF threw for more yards, had a higher completion percentage, more TDs, less INTs, had a higher YPA, and rushed for 759 yards last season.
Does that mean you want him starting at LSU? Because Emory Jones blows and that was even against SEC teams and not PAC12.

This is all speculation. It's a LOT more likely that Jordy doesn't know what he's talking about.
It's not just jordy though. It seems to be everywhere that "the race is down to daniels and nuss". I honestly don't believe that the coaches know where they are at yet since they haven't done a full scrimmage in pads yet. Let's wait till Thursday and see what happens.

Justin McMillian transferred to Tulane a week or two into fall camp when Joe got here so its not unprecedented as I'm sure some small school like a Tulane or southern miss would take him
Different transfer rules were in place in 2018, but McMillian was a grad transfer and was immediately eligible for D-1 competition and Narcisse was not so he went JUCO in order to play in 2018. The one-time free pass transfer rule came later, along with the deadline for declaring transfer intention to be eligible immediately.

He seems to have that "it" factor
Man I would love it if Nuss took over and was the best QB of all time, but I am so tired of seeing people say this, with no evidence or even an explanation of what the "it factor" is

The “it factor” was Max Johnson’s calling card. It just means fans like him and they don’t have any objective or concrete reason for it so they go with “it factor” which is make believe.

Most people know what the "it factor" is. I'm sorry if you don't understand it.
Burrow had it. It's not something that can be easily defined...but it is real.

I don't care about an ability to keep us close and then lose at the end. I'm not willing to accept shite 4th quarter performances in exchange for a bunch of passing yards in the first 3.
Nuss’ IT factor is his supreme confidence and self belief, which is infectious and rubs off on his teammates. He’s a leader and I think most people would want the ball in his hands with 2:00 minutes to go in the 4th quarter down 6

If Daniel’s starts, we will lose 1-2+ games we wouldn’t have if Nuss or Brennan did.
I'd prefer a pass-first gunslinger at QB but what you're saying is the coaches would intentionally sabotage the team. For what reasons and why do you have more insight than they do?

The confidence to make the big play, in the big moment, and to not be afraid of failure is definitely part of the "it" factor. However, a lot of players have great confidence. The other part of the "it" factor is being able to make the play the confidence allows you to attempt. A QB could have all of the confidence in the world he can make any throw on the field...at any time, but it doesn't matter if that confidence just leads him to drilling a defender in the chest time and time again, resulting in back-breaking turnovers.
When I watch Nussmeier I see a lot of Baker Mayfield at Oklahoma. A guy who seems to be bouncing around, avoiding defenders, not afraid to sling the ball downfield, and always searching for the window to make the big throw. The question remains to see if Nussmeier can consistently execute on that confidence.

Jordy is fully on the Nuss bus. I have no idea how it will go, but I would be concerned with Nuss lack of in game experience.
I would be more worried with Daniels preponderance of in game experience.

What about the measly 10 touchdown passes and the whopping 10 interceptions? Is that what SEC caliber QBs and NFL prospects put out?

No he doesn't. Neither does Tom Brady. They are both just really fricking good at football.

Does anyone seriously believe Daniels has a legitimate shot at winning the starting QB job when both BK and DenBrock have both come out and said he is still struggling with footwork and accuracy??
You didn’t know that in madden the millennials just hit a button and the ball goes there. They don’t know this isn’t madden and that running is the LAST thing that’s looked at in a qb battle. LAST.

If I had to bet on it today, I think Daniels gets the start vs FSU. If Daniels struggles in the scrimmages throwing the ball and Nuss lights it up with minimal turnovers then he may win out.
Sorry dude but Brian Kelly isn't stupid enough to risk losing a talent like Nuss to the transfer portal to start a QB who most of the people on this forum can pass better than against Florida State. It's not going to happen.

If we can run the ball effectively, it won’t matter.

There's a lot of people that have this. That doesn't make them great football players.

I don't doubt that he is a leader (even though me and you have no way of actually knowing this because we aren't around the team). I also don't think that any of us have seen enough of Nuss playing college football to determine if we want him to have the ball in his hands down 6 with 2 minutes left. You are saying that based on something that is made up in your own head that hasn't actually happened yet.

No he doesn't. Neither does Tom Brady. They are both just really fricking good at football.
It's like personal charisma, or "stage presence" for an actor or entertainer. Some people have it, and some don't. Yes, it's intangible and hard to define, but it's evident to all when you see it (and also evident when it's absent).
Some athletes absolutely do have an "it" factor. Now sure, for a player to be successful, they have to be skilled. But there are a lot of players who have great skills who don't have "it."
That's plainly obvious to any sports fan who's paid attention for awhile.

here haven't been enough practices for this to happen.
The reason why Brennan is running with the number threes is because he didn't care enough about winning the starting job in the summer to show up at summer workouts to throw with the receivers like both Nuss and Daniels did every day during summer workouts and even on breaks.
