Him entering the portal and not even fighting Nuss for even a second just reeks of fear, inadequacy, and a complete lack of self-confidence


I agree with you but his fear may be warranted.. I see it this way. If the gap between him and Nuss is so obvious that he isn’t willing to stay another year and try to take the spot, it gives me even more confidence in Nuss.. This board put Howard on a pedestal before he even got here and kind of brushed off Nuss. We forget Nuss has 3 more years here.. That’s pretty damn encouraging to me

Literally every coach in CFB would have done this. Hell, even Ed O could have seen that was the right choice.

When QB's see what Daniels is ableto do next year as an LSU QB, they will be entering portals hoping to hear from Uncle Brian.

We Good. We Very Good. Buh Bye Howard and Good Luck Where Thou Go!!

He chose Nuss over Howard. You think Howard transferred because of JD or the guy he's going to sit behind 2 years minimum guaranteed?

Guys like Trevor Lawrence and eventually tua did it


What makes y’all think there isn’t an open competition? Why would these coaches risk doing anything other than playing only the best players at every position?

Howard is literally leaving before any competition can happen.. We don’t need pussies leading our football team.

BK chose Daniels over Howard considering Howard can’t beat out nuss either I’d say kelly chose nuss and Daniels which was wise

In this age of Wild West transfer portal a coach has to do what’s best for the next year. It was obvious Nuss and Daniels were more critical to next year than Howard. It sucks but the days of stockpiling good QB’s for the future is over.

Howard was looking at sitting another 2 years. Then he had to deal with Collins and Hurley.

QB3 2943; 17 TDs 2 Ints with a 8.7 YPA YEAH THAT WAS DANIELS a-hole.
QB2 7.5 YPA

With that QB2 had more talent than ever in his career at receiver and had a worse year than Max Johnson in 2021 in many less games (LSU didn’t take the bowl bid)

This is LSU, our goal is to win championships, not bend over backwards for entitled 3rd string freshmen.

Spot on. Kelly’s QB depth chart is what it is to give LSU the best chance to win a championship in 2023. You worry about ‘24 and beyond when you get there.

So angry.

Much much melting.

Both qbs in my example were Daniels. One as a 3rd year starter one as a 4th year starter and first year under Brian Kelly.

I made no argument that he was an incredible qb (though I’d argue he’s solid)

I was refuting your argument that Kelly can’t develop a qb.

He clearly can and and clearly improved a quarterback in only one offseason that had built up 3 years of bad habits at his old school.

I’d argue when you factor in everything including running the ball Jayden had a much better year but even if you disagree it is unarguable that with the same receiver corps the TEAM was much better with Jayden than they were with Max. As shown by making the sec championship beating bama etc.

So what do you care about. Qb stats or winning games?

I’m not going to go into a nuss vs Jayden rabbit hole.

Clearly throughout the season by their sideline interactions they have a good relationship support and cheer each other and that’s what we should do as fans.

I support tigers. I don’t support max and walker who chose to go elsewhere.

This list of great college QBs developed by LSU is very short.

Lololol
Daniels was my QB3. What you’re saying is he is back to where he was as a freshman and then arguing the talent around him was what?

Max Johnson had FAR FAR LESS TALENT ON THE OLINE.
