LSU Ed O shares his early thoughts on Tigers' quarterback race.

I hope that means Joe Burrow is light years ahead of everyone else, and the team will see it in camp.

You do realize he has to say that, right?

Can we admit that if Burrow doesn’t come in and separate himself from the others and become he clear #1, it is a huge Miss by Ed?

the words no brainer fit Orgeron very well

Blah blah coach speak blah blah trying to keep QBs from transferring blah blah July.

Exactly. It's a classic PR move. He knows good and damn well Burrow is ahead of everyone else.

What's wrong with honesty?

But Burrow is not "ahead" of anyone on Lsu's roster. He doesnt know the offense yet and just on that alone puts him no here in front. Saying otherwise is stupid. You guys act like hes done something other than a good high school career. Always remember with qb's, once the DCs in the conference get more film on his play, they will get better at finding weaknesses... and that's true on any QB
Be honest with yourselves. If LN would be transferring here from OSU after losing out to Barrett, you would be declaring him the best on our team.
I'm glad theres excitement and young players battling, we haven't had that in many years here.
The promises made to JB to get him here are GONE. Now it's time for him to produce or move on.
Brennan and Burrow will battle it out and my guess is very similar stats in scrimmages with LN doing well in dual threat production and this board will be melting in all directions again not knowing who they want.

Go Tigers, and may the best man win. O isnt being politically correct, hes being honest...NO ONE KNOWS

Depends how good the others turn out to be.

I dont' expect Burrow to be awesome right off the bat, I expect him to improve throughout the season.

Now if the QB's suck at the start of the season, then it's a failure.

f he doesn't pan out it's a big disappointment but trying to label it like some misevaluation is just wrong.

There are too many idiots on here who wouldn't know which end of a football to pick up, and can't wait to prove it. They expect coaches to be gods who are infallible and can see the future with absolute clarity. They've never managed anything in their lives, so they're completely incapable of understanding that players and coaches are human and sometimes best intentions don't work out. They have no experience, no judgment and no analytic capability, so they see everything in absolutes. The O-negatives lurk in their holes and wait for any conceivable excuse to bash him, whether they know what they're talking about or not.
