Nuss was the odds on favorite to win the Heismann, he’s now 16th.


He still that high

I hope he turns it around if BK keeps trotting him out there.

You forgot he sat out of the bowl game to save a year of eligibility.. and everyone was not happy...to add to the wierdness of his time at LSU


**Had to sit the Bowl Game to save a year of eligibility after Daddy Nuss called Coach O and politicked to get him the start against Arkansas late in the season thus maxing out the games he could play in while keeping his redshirt.**

What fans were stupid enough for this? He lost multiple games for us and nearly lost 2 more (OM and USCe).

but if he had any sense, he would bench himself instead of trotting himself out there to embarrass himself


Although correct in a sense, most former players at any position would never have done something like this. It’s the competitive nature of athletes. They’re like, tape me up, or do whatever you can so that I can limp out there.

It’s up to the HC to say - no, we need you to rest up and get better so we can make that run in the meat of the schedule.
This is what a HC is for. HE and the OC make the personnel decisions, not the players.

If you go back to 2019 you saw Brady using formations, motions, and personnel to create matchups and confusion.


I'm gong to correct you that 2019 was Ensminger's offense and he was calling plays. Brady had a influence for sure but he was basically a young analysis. Ensminger designed and called the offense.
