lol

How many 4 and 5 star running backs are on the team that nobody outside of College Station knows by name? Refresh my memory, y'all have always been happy to remind everyone about them in the past.

I think the offer was still good, he just would've never gotten playing time while Kyle Allen was there.


So aTm didn't eliminate anyone. That's what I thought.

We eliminated him by choosing Kyle Allen, the better QB prospect. I don't see what's so hard to understand about that.

I agree, Jennings has a ton of potential. It will be up to CC to maximize it which his track record so far with Mettenberger looks good.


I'm interested to see. Cameron may be tinkering with his throw some, because Jennings did not look to have a strong arm in the bowl game. Mettenberger will be impossible to replace, but we probably have the best group of QBs on the roster that we've had since 2006.

A&M-5 star HS QB with no college experience


I don't consider that a done deal. I'm pretty sure Kenny Hill doesn't, either. Neither QB will be must-see-TV like we've grown accustomed to, but A&M's success will be more about improvement on defense than anything else.

I think A&M is in good shape at QB, but LSU will also be fine with Jennings. I don't know that any new QB is going to light everything on fire, though. I like Dak a lot, even if it means putting up with MSU fans. Bo could also be good if he'd get a damn haircut! The only SECW team I see struggling at the position is, again, our Hog brethren. (Not enough info on Alabama.)

Because what you're saying is wrong. aTm didn't pull his scholarship offer which means they didn't eliminate him, and would have taken him on the roster if he wanted to be there.

ETA: He's the #2 dual threat QB in the country so I'm sure Sumlin wouldn't have turned him away.

ETA again: Meant #2

LSU easily. He's the only one with meaningful snaps.

One important factor for the LSU QB position which I haven't seen mentioned is the return of La'el Collins at LT.

I'd say LSU out of those 3 just because we have about 3 guys who have at least seen a snap or 2 in live action

My guess is that Jennings will have the least pressure on him, because he'll have a great backfield to work with, and can be forgiven for a few mistakes because of the departures at WR. Bama fans (at least on here) seem to be heralding Coker as a step up from McCarron already, and while I think he'll be productive and show arm-strength we haven't seen since Croyle, you can't expect him to completely flourish in year one because of how late he'll be starting to practice in what might be a new system under Kiffin.

I don't know what everyone else is returning on the O-line, but Jennings will get some big time help with 4 starters returning.

Although there will be legitimate competition for QB.


There was a year of completion already with those on the team and Jennings appeared to win all of them as judged by Cam.

I'm hard pressed to think any incoming freshman will beat Jennings out and Jennings will have another 7 mons. to learn and mature before he is even challenged.

I assume you didn't do any research.

JJ won a ton of games at LSU.

Perriloux won an SECCG MVP before he was kicked off for being a thug.

And Shepard requested to play another position in order to help the team.

So....

Inclined to say LSU, due to one draft-eligible player returning next year on offense - La'el Collins.
If our offensive line is as good as predicted, it won't matter much that we lack experience at QB.
