For his sake, I hope he doesn't try to transfer to top tier school.


Clown take.

Kid has talent. He can play at any school. He just needs to develop.

I’m sure you were one of the posters who said he’d never take a snap at LSU

I saw someone on Twitter say he was Arky bound... no clue if that’s true

Good Luck, TJ Thanks for giving it a shot, you've played where not many get to play.

Felipe Franks also thought switching to another SEC school would help, so maybe Finley can learn from his mistakes. I see them as very similar players.

He's a kid Saban could probably win a title with. He did so with Blake Sims

Physical skills, but had a difficult time reading defenses.

Franks has some wheels. TJ is a pocket passer.

Agree. TJ was caught at a time when two current QBs have football pedigrees and a third coming in next year has one as well. He's got the skills, just needs a little time.

He will be at a P5 school. It's a new fricking day, my dudes. Good qb prospects are leaving LSU because there is too much competition.

He didn't have a difficult time reading defenses, his problem was staring down his primary receiver too long thus throwing INT's as a result. He would move an offense with his laser like throwing, but then throw that INT that would kill the drive. He'll learn from another OC at the school he transfers to that he needs to go through his progressions better.

I specifically said that he could put up big numbers. However, he's proven he's not patient enough to develop. If he transfers into a competitive situation, is he going to be able to wait it out, or transfer again?

If he wants to play right away, as it seems, then he needs to transfer somewhere where that can happen.

The whole thing just sucks....i mean...what a great kid. Just wonder if Myles doesn't go down and he has more time to develop. what could have been. I hate that he was so committed to the school and things didn't work out. Best of Luck to TJ

Luckily for Finley, he doesn't look like an alpaca.

Not really, he can play anywhere he just needs to improve as I said, the talent is there.

Yep. I confirmed this as well. He also won’t be the last LSU QB to do so

He’s got the skills without a doubt. Not sure he’s the smartest guy out there with some of his decision making. He’s young. Best of luck to him.
