Learning the offense is the only thing he is lacking.

Im surprised that JJ is larger than Mett, same height and JJ has a few pounds on him. I thought Mett was a giant..... (I understand JJ isnt a small QB just thought Mett was taller and heavier)

And you know this how?

I hope the guy turns out to be ALL-SEC, but the fact our new OC didn't even mention ZM when talking bout playing to the strengths of our QBs just today tells me he's not "lightyears ahead" of anyone in anything.

Even though he is right about it being naive for the coaches to not play him.. I'm not sure he should be talking like that



There is nothing wrong with what he said.

He was simply clarifying why he believes he will get snaps...not because Jefferson or Lee won't perform but because he understands that he is an integral part of the future plans. And, he also admits that he has work to do in understanding the playbook.

His answer was pretty close to perfect.

So LSU spring game means he's ready to go?




No, it means he is better than the two ahead of him

Don't know about light years but it won't take much for him to be better.And by the way do you really believe Les would allow him to outshine JJ.

Good Point - if we judged JJ by the last 2 springs games, he would never see the field.
Great that we can judge him based on his game performance.

Yeah, that must be why he continues to run 3rd string.

I'm hoping for better than Flynn. #15 hardly had the dream career @ LSU. The kid was booed in his last game in Tiger Stadium for Christ's sake.

He just friggin' got here,while JJ has been in the system 5yrs.If JJ is that much better than ZM,as some may think,the passing game will be a non factor for the next few years.
