It's because he's not from Zachary. If McMillan was from Zachary and Scott was from Texas, all we would be hearing about is how good McMillan is.
Agreed, I feel the same way.

that is true. anyone who saw him play in HS knew he wasnt a SEC quality QB.
I find this funny because as I remember, when the recruiting board looked at Lodge, many asked who was the QB throwing to him, because he looked good. After he committed to us then it seemed like they didn't like him (McMillan) as much anymore.
McMillan did always looked like a group of 5 level QB to me, but that doesn't mean bad.

You do realize he was going to Mizzou before he decommitted and committed here right?
I know Mizzou sucks, but you said no SEC offers and only mid majors.
This is false. His only other FBS offers were Arkansas State and UNLV.
Rivals
247
Hope the best for him, but I don't see him ever becoming an SEC starter.

Plenty of qbs do well that aren't highly touted. He's got the arm and the smarts. Whether it's good enough we will see but I wouldn't count him out by any means. Many times it takes a few years to get the position down.

I'm not going to judge any QB for their performance under Les and Cam. I'll reserve judgment until I see what Canada can do with him.

Dude, he already has thrown a pass.
Posted on 3/31/17 at 8:40 am to louisiana_boi16
What I've been thinking also. All the videos I've watched of him have huge potential written all over

He's wildly accurate on the screens and short slants . You have to give him that. And he has that weird whip release that seems to help on the short ball but hurt on the long ball.

Etling is having a really good spring. McMillan is really pushing him. Scott has looked good in scrimmages. The depth chart seems to be locked. Etling, McMillan, Scott (in that order). There is probably not going be much reason to change that until next year (unless something unexpected happens).

Everyone keeps spitting out #2 Qb is Lindsey Scott, but McMillan has a nice arm and seems to have wheels
He was a desperation scholly

The report (from people who attended practice/scrimmages) that came out said that he's the most accurate of all of the QB's. So either we are up shite's creek at QB, or you don't know what you are talking about. I'm going with the latter.

Mcmillans armstrength is average at BEST. Who are ya'll watching?

Lol. McMillan has no chance to pass up Danny. And if something happened to Danny and another QB was put in the game, I'm willing to bet Scott or one of the freshmen would go in. McMillan is inaccurate, his arm strength is suspect, and he's not fast like people like to say on here.

exactly. Every player on our roster voluntarily signed to play here, knowing full well that LSU is an elite football program, which comes with high expectations and high pressure. Especially for a QB.
So yes, we can appreciate and respect the work and effort a player puts in, but this isn't D-II football. Fair criticism comes with the territory.

Will neve ne a meaningful qb at lsu. Sorry
Lol, and I heard Harris would never be the starter.
Seriously, McMillan is an injury away from getting in a game. The guy didn't win back to back state titles because he sucks.
Besides the reports we are hearing are just like Eitling. Pushing for the #2 spot and others laughed it off. Dude became the starter.
