It's already been stated he isn't playing, what's the point?

They probably need him to for drills and such things. As far as I know Nuss, MVB, and a walk on are the only QB’s with the team

The point is he has been a part of this program for 5 years. When most others would have ran away, he stuck it out. This season was certainly a disappointment for him, but he gave a lot to LSU. Anybody questioning why he is practicing is a piece of shite.

The team is practicing for a bowl game. Asking a question about why the QB who just sat out the last few games of the year is suddenly practicing with the team in 11 vs 11 is valid.

That would make sense, that picture looks like 11 v 11 scrimmage so that's why I asked

What an emotional response for a dude that shut it down a few weeks ago.

This may be why he's taking snaps. Maybe he's the emergency QB if MVB gets dinged. Maybe he's there to "die or do to win the game for dear old LSU".

All I can think is he’s running scout team and getting practice reps for the combine pro day at the same time. He’s not getting hit at practice like he would potentially be in a game

He was hurt. Just because the rant decided he quit doesnt mean he did.

Has he been practicing the last month or so of the season? I do not disagree. How does his appearance in practice benefit the team? So far as I can see, it does not. If MVB is not playing, he should not practice either. What is wrong with my reasoning?

Wondering if you talking about the poster shutting it down or Nuss.

Has he not been involved with the team when he was out hurt?

When I look at how Nuss chunked it in the '22 SECCG vs '25, it seems pretty obvious something changed.

Nonetheless, this is what I'd say to him: your last snap as a Tiger was an ugly (and that's and understatement) sack in Tuscaloosa. Is that how you want it to end?

Get your @ss ready, go play the bowl game and redeem yourself. Go out and play like a Tiger.

Well that's why I asked the question. I'm curious if he's practicing to actually play. Some people get fricking emotional over a fricking player they don't even know personally

I said nothing about him quitting. Why are you so emotional?

Have you ever seen offensive practices where a play is called and the TE, WR1, WR2, and RB all go out on pass patterns ? They often have 3 QB’s each throwing a pass to each receiver running a different route. (See sample pic below) This gives everyone reps and a chance to throw/catch. I have zero problem with Nuss running plays at practice

Uh it’s probably better for the defense to go up against an actual QB instead of the waterboy playing QB no?

Nuss is in the picture with lane and frank and yes off vs def running plays. It's not a throwing drill.

I was more curious if he was going to play in the game
