I know this is tough to forecast but is there any college QB's you've followed who were doing pretty good but then lost their job to someone, and are now looking to jump ship? Do you see anyone else in the SEC or even beyond that would have potential to take over this offense? I mean, assuming Nuss isn't the guy.

Is there anyone you think Kelly may be already looking at?

would love to see what we could do with Jalon Daniels

his 2022 numbers at Kansas are solid for Kansas surrounding talent and and he’s an athlete.

Kaidon Salter is another good dual threat QB at a smaller school. I woild absolutely take him.

idk if they’re looking to transfer hut they’re at Kansas and Liberty and may have bigger aspirations.

Nuss has shown flashes and he has shown whatever the opposite of a flash is. We could be absolutely fine with him at QB. that being said if there is a guy who does more of the things Jayden does running wise i don’t think he has a strangle hold on the spot

I think he's referring to QB depth behind Nuss and the rs fresh Collins and frosh Hurley. He said "assuming" Nuss...

I wouldn't get my hopes up. Last year, the top rated QBs in the portal were Sam Hartman, Devin Leary, and Brennan Armstrong. If that type of QB floats your boat, so be it. Using NIL $$$ to anything besides the defensive side of the ball is a misallocation of funds.

This LIST may have some diamonds in the rough:

GEORGIA
Brock Vandagriff
Gunner Stockton
quote:

Third-year quarterback Brock Vandagriff and second-year quarterback Gunner Stockton are behind Beck. They were each highly-ranked and highly-recruited. Vandagriff looks like the second option this season on the depth chart and has played a little. It seems likely that one of them takes off for a chance to start next year, regardless of what Beck does. Vandagriff was honest during fall camp that he had thought about entering the transfer portal before electing to return in 2023.

TEXAS
Maalik Murphy
quote:

A complicated situation in Austin was made even more complex this week. Texas starter Quinn Ewers is "week to week" with an injury, meaning Maalik Murphy will start. There are a lot of things at play and I'm fascinated to see how head coach Steve Sarkisian navigates this tightrope.

Is there a chance that Ewers comes back for another season? We think so. Ewers graduated early and should only be a sophomore this year. He needs to put together a balanced season of production and decision making. Plus, the 2024 NFL Draft class is loaded and the '25 class is not.

Behind Ewers is where it gets interesting. Murphy is a talented thrower and showed he could start at number of schools with the passing display he put on in the spring game. In fact, several SEC and Big Ten programs were interested in his services. The Longhorns were able to keep him. Now Murphy gets a few weeks to showcase what he can do — whether that's for Texas, or for another program.

There’s also Arch Manning, the No. 1 recruit in 2023. His future is bright.

If Ewers returns, we believe that sends Murphy hits the portal (Manning stays in almost every conceivable scenario, I think). If Ewers leaves, Sarkisian is likely to drag out a Murphy vs. Manning quarterback battle through fall camp, regardless of how Murphy fares this fall.

CLEMSON
Cade Klubnik
quote:

There’s some serious turmoil at Clemson and five-star, second-year quarterback Cade Klubnik hasn’t been as good as advertised. Klubnik hasn’t been exactly "bad," so we don’t want to be overly harsh, but I'm not sure if Klubnik is the quarterback who can bring Clemson back to being a dominant program. He's trying to do too much now behind a bad offensive line and with a very limited crop of skill talent.

There’s been some major confusion between Klubnik and offensive coordinator Garrett Riley at critical times during this season. There have also been some pointed comments made by coach Dabo Swinney about Klubnik's decision-making, which is unusual for Swinney. We’ll see how the rest of the year turns out but we don’t think it would surprise many if Klubnik decided a fresh start was needed.

ALABAMA
Ty Simpson
Tyler Buchner
quote:

The Alabama quarterback situation was a roller coaster earlier this season, with three quarterbacks battling for the job. Jalen Milroe, Ty Simpson, and Tyler Buchner all got a crack at playing time before the Tide settled with Milroe after underwhelming showings by the other two at USF. It will be interesting to see whether Alabama wants to stick with Milroe in 2024 or have another open quarterback battle, which could absolutely involve a portal prospect to be determined later.

Milroe is somewhat limited in terms of opening up the passing game, but he’s hit downfield targets at a consistent clip. His teammates seem to love him. Second-year freshman Ty Simpson came in 2022 as a highly touted prospect from Tennessee and could look elsewhere for greener pastures. Class of 2023 four-star Dylan Lonergan got rave reviews in fall camp (his classmate Eli Holstein is also in the room) and five-star Julian Sayin is on the way in 2024.


Anyway, there's a lot of solid names in that article. How many of them would you like to see get some consideration?

I don't see a starter from a P5 school coming here without a wink wink starting job guaranteed. If BK gives a fricking wink wink to anybody on the outside this offseason, i'm done with him. I would wish this fake arse poser nothing but failure at his time at LSU.

We might take a transfer for depth purposes but the staff fully believes in Nuss as the starter going forward for the next 2 seasons potentially depending on his success next year.

It has NOTHING to do with Nuss. Nuss will be the guy, and he has a chance to be the 3rd best quarterback in LSU history.

That said, I really think we need someone to come in to add to the QB room behind Nuss. Ideally someone younger who's looking to make a move like how Walker Howard left LSU for what seemed like no reason at all. Guys move around like that every year.

So you want to give a "frick You" "we are bringing another transfer QB" to a guy who could have had his pick of schools and transferred out but chose to stay...Hmmm, good luck with recruiting QBs and high-character kids in the future if this is how you reward them..wow

Arizona QB Noah Fifita. He's only a freshman.

I wonder if the QB from Liberty, Salter, will hit the portal. I assume he can get a waiver considering he was kicked off the team before his freshman season at Tennessee.

But he's 7th in the nation in QBR, and 3rd in Passer Rating. Dual threat player with near 2k passing yards, 23 TDs, 3 INTs; to go with 664 yards rushing and another 7 TDs.
