Johnson 1st team, Nuss 2nd team...it is what it is! I love Myles Brennan, but he will not see the field in 2021.
You just have one terrible take after another. Go back to talking about Johnny Jones being better than Wade...

Brennan also had Marshall and Gilbert and Johnson didn't.
Very good point

Reminder that Brennan also had Marshall and Gilbert and Johnson didn't.
Also consider this:
Left guard Ed Ingram, a three-year starter, attributed many of the offensive line's mistakes to poor communication and signal mix-ups with a rotation of three new quarterbacks in Myles Brennan, plus true freshmen TJ Finley and Max Johnson.
"We just had so many errors and miscommunications between the quarterbacks and the offensive line," Ingram said. "We just need to regroup and create that chemistry with the whole offense so we can be dominant, because we have the potential to be."
The O-line was new, but as the season progressed the OL began to play as a team.
It was mentioned in the Florida game that their defense was a leader in the SEC in QB sacks, but they failed to sack Johnson. Part of that was the ability of Johnson to avoid sacks, but the OL played better toward the end of the season.

You know him personally?
If I'm not mistaken this is a university wide award - swimmers, golfers, gym, etc
Say happy birthday to the LSU football player who thinks you are dumb

I know TJ is a smart kid but honestly other than his physical attributes on the field he just doesn't have the IT factor out on the field from what small sampling we saw of him last year. He's a streaky guy if he's hot he is good but if things start to go bad he just loses it and makes mistakes. Max is pretty steady and just seems to keep composed even when things start to go bad. Throw in the running ability of max and this puts him ahead of Finley also. It's a toss up between Myles and Max for me. To be honest I like Max better just because of his pocket presence and running ability.

How about you look at last year in general.
Max Johnson in 5 games last year 1,069yds,
58.7%, 8td, 1 int
Brennan in his 3 games: 1,112 yds, 60.3%, 11 td, 3 int
LSU fans: Max just has IT
The bulk of Max's stats came from playing that terrible Ole miss defense. The team improved as the season went. It's not simply because Max was playing.

no one is saying he isnt intelligent. He just doesnt take care of the football enough, which is normal for a freshman. Its just a bad deal for him because Max is more ready in that regard.

Why not do first 3 starts?
Because it doesn't support the IT factor garbage. It's the same sort of arguments that we make fun of UGA for defending Fromm with

Also Max ran for 119 for the season. 2.2 per carry. His wheels are greatly overstated.

So? Thats part of the movement argument. He's not some speedster by any means.
Posted on 3/25/21 at 2:33 pm to Dstllsu
Even if you go back to his HS stats, he averaged 7.1 yards per game. It's just not what he is

He clearly holds onto the ball too long and tries to force it into tight windows. He doesn’t get through his progressions and turns it over too much. There’s a reason this kid went from starter to 3rd on the depth chart and it ain’t because of his physical attributes. Those are as good as it gets.
