And who knows what this unproven never called a play on offense before OC is all about.
Please explain the relationship between play calling and interceptions.

Max has been coached by a Super Bowl winning QB since he was born.

And that talent and coaching is why TJ was benched and is transferring but somehow some of you seem to think Finley should stay at LSU where he knows he is going to be on the sidelines behind more talented and more prepared Quarterbacks.

You can only transfer once without having to sit out a year. The second time you have to sit for a year.

The last coach he needs to play for is Fisher. While he
is regarded as a QB guru, the facts are he has recruited several good QB's and they have showed minimal progress under him and have all been failures at the next level.
Finley needs to go somewhere to develop, the physical tools are there, but he needs some really good coaching to correct the flaws in his game. I do think he is a hard worker and realized he is too far down the depth chart with really good player ahead of him to see the field at LSU.

Regardless of where he ultimately decides to go to school, it’s been widely reported how much interest he’s received from tons of power 5 schools, which is why you look like a complete moron saying the kid could only get a look at a place the likes of Southern.

Sounds like finley might go to auburn.
They don't really have a back up besides true freshman demetrius davis, who is more of a runner.
Finley is saying he is deciding between other schools like ohio state and bama but their is no way.
Ohio state has 3 studs qbs. No way they want finley.

Of course, other factors were also at play.
What are these “other factors” to which you refer?

Yeah? Well Auburn should look at Finley’s performance against their Defense last season. Several interceptions and a fumble which resulted in an Auburn “scoop & score”. I certainly can see how they were impressed.

This was redshirt sophomore Dak Prescott
58% 1940 yards 7.3 ypa 10 TD 7 int
This was senior Prescott
66% 3790 yards 8.0 ypa 29 TD 5 int
Arkansa's Brandon Allen as a redshirt sophomore
50% 1550 yards 6.0 ypa 13 TD 10 int
Allen as a senior
66% 3400 yards 9.3 ypa 30 TD 9 int
I gave two previous SEC QBs with crap numbers as first year starters with heavy improvements as the years progressed. This is two more SEC QBs who had the same trajectory.
Finley can damn sure improve like them. These QBs were allowed to work through their ups and downs. Hell Prescott and Allen had a ridiculous passing display as veteran seniors in the game vs each other.

I have never seen such love for a player anywhere who played so poorly he was replaced, is an absolute turnover machine, chose to leave on his own after he was clearly beaten out, and is talking about transferring to an SEC Rival in LSU's own Division. Yet some of you are so in love with this guy you bash the players who beat out Finley and have shown to be better players and are going to actually play for LSU.
Many of you make excuses for Finley's poor performance on the field and in the Spring Game and would apparently rather play Finley than players who obviously played better than Finley in game and practice situations.
I suggest that you are not LSU fans but rather fans of TJ Finley. I want to win and pull for LSU to play the best player at every position. TJ is not the best QB at LSU and was at best #3 on the depth chart. Nobody told TJ Finley to leave. He chose to go elsewhere. He is no longer a Tiger so goodbye to TJ Finley.

The frick? People bash Finley on here like crazy.he came in as a Freshman against South Carolina and was phenomenal to the point that people wanted him to play over brennan. Then he beat arkansas . He had 2 bad games and 2 good games .he was about average against bama. It didn't matter who played QB in that game.
I think people just respect someone who was put in after not expecting to play and won us a couple games we desperately needed.everybody wishes chris curry well too. It's not just Finley .
So what if hes going to Auburn? He shouldnt just sit here and ride the bench until his Eligibility is gone. Dude wants to play in the nfl one day and he wont do that here if he doesnt play. Hes got a lot going for him with size and the arm strength. The nfl is gonna pay attention to him because of that and then see what he does with whatever chance and coaching he gets.

Yeah, this whole thing is a stupidity trap.
Finley handled things in a very classy manner, and I wish him the best. The better QB's won, who knows down the road which will be the best...
We all knew someone would transfer. TJ came in behind Max when it comes to situational awareness, but he has plenty of time.

You make my point for me. Finley could have stayed and competed at LSU. He obviously thought the competition was too tough and CHOSE to leave. Fans like you somehow are so fond of Finley you seem to support him and act as if somehow he was mistreated. He was not mistreated. Football is a competitive game and Finley lost out in the competition. So now instead of staying and trying to get better at LSU he is simply leaving. I have news for you. There is going to be established players anywhere Finley goes and let's use Auburn as an example. Do you truly think that Finley will go to Auburn and beat out Bo Nix?
He won't. So if that occurs what has Finley accomplished?
