Nowhere in my post, mind or person do I "hate" Nuss. I don't hate anyone.

What I was doing was objectively critiquing Nuss's overall skills, abilities while QB for LSU. After having just re-watched the 2024 Ole Miss game my thoughts/memories - feelings/frustrations regarding Nuss "all came back to me". Not being in the heat of the game moment, or 2024 season, I was able to be removed and far more objective in my analysis. And I forgot how inept he was @ QB. It's my opinion that he is not really cut out or qualified to be a good QB. And that he did it as a kid, and perhaps continued doing it due to his Dad being a QB coach!?!

And here is what is/was glaringly obvious with Nuss in that Ole Miss game and others.

When a player is "connected" to the game, he is calm, poised and in sync with his team. They just move, look, feel natural. Great athletes "flow" and appear smooth in their movements, ball handling, etc. If you've played sports @ an advanced level, which I have and do, as well as "teach" the fundamental + extremely technical/bio-mechanical elements, aspects involved in the sport I play/compete.......then you know how critical "timing" & "feel" is in a highly competitive, lightning fast sport where millimeters can make the difference in winning/losing.

Being in "sync" with the game and players is especially imperative for a QB and his wide receivers. Part of this ability and skill is that they be able to move fluently, think quickly and be able to "see" (and feel) the entire field and individual players moving on it. It is an extremely difficult position to play, and very, very few can manage it @ the High School, much less D1 or Pro level! There is nothing to be ashamed of, or cause for "hate" if one is unable to execute/perform @ the QB position.

The simple fact is that Nussmeier does not have the special qualities, skills needed to QB or lead a team. He will occasionally "connect", but he has no command over how/when/where. He is inconsistent. When he Nuss completes passes it is often due to his world class athlete wide receivers that are making a great play/catch in a difficult situation on what was often a badly placed/timed ball. When they appear to simply "drop the ball/miss the catch"....if you watch very closely you will see usually see the lack of touch/feel or "finesse" Nuss has on the ball. The timing/rhythm of the pass, ball & receiver are OFF!

Nuss's body language also indicates, betrays how disconnected he was on the field, along with a obvious, significant lack of confidence. He is just not inspiring. And was noway, nohow - NOT - a leader. Again, I don't hate or dislike Nuss. And hope he does well in his NFL football career!! But @ LSU he never looked "connected" or "part of the team". He had little to no chemistry with his wide receivers, or other teammates, and it was abundantly obvious.

To those who know and understand....no explanation is necessary.
To those who don't.....no explanation will do.
