How much did he costs?
Are we talking Cam money here?
Is his daddy a preacher?
Can we find him a girl that doesn't mind a little touching?
Will Crowton still make him run the weak side option?
Did Rueben Randle smile at this announcement?
Are tickets on sale for BCS Championship game yet?

Not meaning to crush everyones dreams right now but don't for one minute believe that he will start over JJ. Sure he could get some playing time, maybe even rotating for a few series with him. But he will not be the #1 qb. Just don't forget the pictures JJ has and who our coach is.

What does this mean?

It's like the ending on the Sopranos series. It can mean anything your imagination wants it to mean...

He'll be a true Sophomore and can play three seasons...assuming he doesn't take off for the NFL at the end of his Junior year if he is doing well.

Given the way Miles does things he may not start at all next year. Wouldn't that be a kick in the pants?

but entirely possible imo, fwiw, btw, idk.

Redshirted. He'll play 5 years at LS, IF he signs with LSU. All recruit commitments are verbal commtiments 2011. Verbal means nada.

How could Miles ever choose not to start a kid that The Rant thinks is a lock to be a great quarterback? Not listen to the experts on the Rant? No way.
