Per O’s press conference. Said it was his choice...Interesting

ETA: O also said it was an open competition.

Damn.... that’s pretty surprising. I wouldn’t have been surprised to see him win the job but to take 1st team reps the first day of spring is fricking shocking to me

Well, either Myles boots up or crumbles under the pressure. I think Brennan comes storming back and retakes the first string reps from Johnson.

I predict the Rant’s favorite QB will be the backup.

Makes sense to me—Johnson was starting at end of last season and Myles is coming off a injury

Max was cooking the last two games and he seemed to have the "it" factor. No need to change anything up for now

Maybe Brennan isn't 100% healthy.
Maybe Johnson, Brennan, and Finley are all first team at this stage.

I think Max might be the guy. He should’ve started against Alabama, but it might be best that he didn’t looking back at it just on the confidence factor because LSU wouldn’t have won the game.

Yep. O is all about generating competition even when there isn’t any. I’d be shocked if Brennan didn’t start.

Competition is how coaches increase the intensity and sense of urgency in practices, drills, and preparation. Also, making Brennan step up and take control of the starting position and providing opportunities for Max to continue where he left off last season will only push both to improve and strengthen the depth at the position should another injury occur. And, it establishes a culture that the depth chart is an open, season long tournament.

Is he taking fist team reps exclusively or is he taking reps with the first team offense AFTER MB had his fist team reps?
