I agree with Stevo, he’s a tweener. Great athlete but not SEC level at qb or running back . He never seemed to hit the hole with the next gear like Berry. Maybe he could have been better on defense but you gotta have some dawg to play there. I wish him the best of luck..

Should one assume they have a conversation with staff before deciding - to gauge one's future if they were to remain?

It's likely this is the result of already having a conversation. This seems like 'processed'. I wish him well. He'll have a better chance with more reps at another school.

Y’all are nuts. He looked “average” because of our shite scheme and terrible OL. I hope he reconsiders because I’d love to see him in a Kiffin offense.

Maybe his agent wants to get him a little bump in pay.

Word is he wants a shot at qb.
He’s been a team guy doing whatever they asked of him since day 1.
Good luck to him and I hope he gets his shot at qb somewhere.

He’s a good player who could benefit from dropping down a level to G5 and get comfortable in one position.

He was a pretty decent RB, good hands out of the backfield. He could use some more strength, but the biggest point is that I hope Ju’Juan finds success somewhere. He was asked to do a lot here and never complained.

Sensed the direction program is going. He was not in Lane’s plans for next year.

Kind of a tweener player on offense. Reminds me of Russell Shepard situation. Wonder if he'd be better off sticking with defense. Great athlete.
Haven't seen either throw in college, but Shepard was way more explosive of a runner and receiver.

This sucks. I was hoping we got to see him play QB in the bowl game. There’s no way MVB was that much better than him.

Selfishly, I hope he goes to Southeastern and lights it up as a QB

Not good.

So, now who is the 2nd string QB if MVB gets hurt before the bowl game or during the bowl game?

Definitely one of the least selfish players we've ever had. Got moved around and didn't complain. Hope he has great success with next team.

He's a great athlete and did what was asked of him without any issues the first two years at LSU even if it meant being in a unit coached by the worst coach on the team. He is another in the long history of RBs touched by Frank Wilson to fail to develop and/o or regress under his tutelage.

Hope the kid finds a team with a competent position coach for him.
