LSU QB Garrett Nussmeier Announces His Future Plans

LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier announced Wednesday evening that he will return to the team in 2025.

Nussmeier, a redshirt junior from Lake Charles, La., passed for 3,739 yards, 26 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions this season in his first year as LSU's starter.

For those who don't remember, Nussmeier chose not to play in the 2022 Texas Bowl against Kansas State as it would have burned up his redshirt for the 2021 season. LSU had no quarterbacks available in the Texas Bowl and had to start wide receiver Jontre Kirklin instead.

Had Nussmeier played in that game, this past season would have been last year at LSU.

Now, he's coming back to Baton Rouge for his final year of eligibility.

He committed to LSU. He never waivered. He signed with LSU. He stuck with LSU through the Ed O firing. He stuck with LSU when Jayden transferred in a took his job. He never once "hit the portal". And now he is forgoing the NFL to stick with that commitment once again. This is the ultimate "LSU guy"

He really is. Big respect for him. Hopefully he can take care of the ball next year but whether he gets us to the playoffs or not he’s a true tiger

CynicalTiger08•12 months

And to that end our fans should show him love, he showed a ton of fight during the OU game. Here’s to hoping he shows out next year.

CrystalPreserves•12 months

He was gone if Brian Kelly didn’t fork up the mill and a half this week.

If you’re not rooting for this kid, you’re not a tiger fan.

TwoDatBait•12 months

Exactly, with preseason hype he had he would have likely gotten a multimillion NIL deal to transfer but he stuck it out and hope he tops Burrow and Daniels!

Bruh

Spankum•12 months

I am glad he is coming back…but I am still cautiously optimistic. He has stuck with LSU through a ton of shite and I hope he lights it up this year!

tigerbutt•12 months

You mean next year.

BowDownToLSU•12 months

So we have possibly the top rated quarterback coming back. No reason we shouldn’t make the playoffs next season. If not , major changes will have to be made

Timeoday•12 months

We have always known the 2nd year of Nuss as a starter would be the year for the Natty!!

Dart is coming back for Ole Miss.

It's called dedication & perservence! The young man has a good heart & a strong arm. Wishing him & the Tigers nothing but best next year! Geaux Tigers!

caliegeaux•12 months

Great news. We can only hope he has the same 2nd year improvement that Joe and Jayden had. Get a hint of a tuning. Continued improvements on D and this team can make some noise. Go get’em Nuss.

caliegeaux•12 months

Being old and blind sucks. A hint of a running game. Lol

CajunBullet•12 months

An improvement in the running game will help greatly!

Haha...I got my desktop hooked up to my 65" and found a long enough cable to connect my laptop to my 43". Literally...a beautiful thang!

Slow down just a touch

Bucky_B•12 months

I get it, but Burrow's 2nd year was with a new coordinator that ran the HS offense that Joey B knew and was comfortable with. Dont expect that out of Nuss this year.... but we can always hope

stang14•12 months

Someone. Please teach him how to run to pick up a first down when opportunity presents itself.

Being loyal, dedicated, and having faith! You don't see this in many of today's college athletes!

He has made a wise decision for himself and LSU. Geaux Tigers!!

OrangeCurtainTiger•12 months

Glad he is staying, but who is he going to throw to? If he has the skill players around him, he could have a Heisman year.

YMCA•12 months

I don’t know what portal WRs they’ll add to the ones coming back, but I’d much rather BK have to find a couple of guys in to play WR than I would a brand new QB that’s unproven or hasn’t played well in the SEC.

I spotted Chris Hilton and Emory Jones in that video of what appears to be returning weapons.
