Hurley has to prove to you? Who tf are you? The only people he needs to prove to are the coaches and teammates. GTFOH!!!

Definitely a possibility if nuss gets hit hard 3-4 times they pull the plug.


If he gets hit hard 3-4 times, he’ll be taken off the field in an ambulance before his miraculous return after one drive.

I personally don’t care if we win or lose, I just want Nuss and Whit to avoid injury.

I want LSU to win. Limiting Nuss at qb means we will most likely lose and lose big.

Hurley was a 3 star.
he was a 4* On3 and enrolled at 16 years old at LSU. He was supposed to be in this years class but reclassified. He is the same age or younger than Bryce Underwood. Let that set in Mr Cruiter, Anti-Trust poster

They are letting AJ Swann stay with and practice with the team even though he’s technically in the portal. That tells me he’s the emergency backup for Nuss, and we’re going 100% to try to win this game. Nuss will take every snap while the game is still anywhere close to being in doubt.

As he should. Going against a Dave Aranda defense is only going to give him more things to both in real time and on tape. That can only help him be better next year. And we paid him close to $2 million to come back. Dude is fricking playing.

Do homework - Hurley was a 4 star on all the ranking services!

It is actually a complete and utter ridiculous question. Please go as a serious question somewhere else.

FYI - before he reclassified, Hurley was a 2025 five-star prospect according to the 247Sports composite. He picked the Tigers over schools like Miami, Alabama, Georgia, Florida and Ohio State.

doesn’t matter. Others on LSUs team were in the portal and came back. They were still students until they weren’t.

No it’s not. There can be a lot of answers as to why he should play that I can I can agree with. I’m just questioning it behind a make shift oline. And LSU also needs to see what Hurley looks like outside of s mop up situation

Depends on what you think “matters” means in this context. I think Swann was processed and told he should probably seek a new school. I’m sure he saw the writing on the wall, and it was mutual. I think it says a lot about how the LSU coaches and feel about him and vice versa.

However, I also think it means they aren’t trying to send 17-year-old Hurley out there again a Dave Aranda defense with the game on the line. You mention others who went in the portal and came back, but they weren’t QBs. Hell, at least 2 backup QBs entered the portal and left their teams before the PLAYOFFS to get a head start on the musical chairs.

Tl;dr—AJ Swann being active today could mean several things. I think the most obvious one is BK is not ready for Hurley to play in a competitive game where the W or L actually goes on our record.

So why play him and risk an injury that could be detrimental to next season?

Because Nuss has the chest to be a Tiger! You couldn't keep him on the bench today.

Objective. You play to win the game. Nuss gives you a chance to accomplish that.
