Maybe I get my wish Geriner does start for LSU and by the end of the season we have a QB for the future, with baby goat as an ample backup and Walker having to fight for a place because the aforementioned are playing so well....a man can wish.

We’ve talked about White’s completion percentage before. Obviously, not great. He doesn’t throw an insane amount of interceptions which is good. He really, really pushes the ball downfield. I like that

I don’t know. I’m grossly incompetent at evaluating quarterbacks so that’s all I’ve got

I am pretty tired of the HS QB football angle myself. We havent had a good one we could celebrate in God knows how long.

Bo lasted three years but someone else enjoyed the QB that endured pains here.

Other great looking QBs with arm talent have failed us.

It seems the talent we do get are projects. I am tired of recruiting a bunch of nobodys. A bunch of 3s that are never on anybody's radar except the niche group of fantatical auburn fanboys living on a dream (Jt33)

I had hope that White was going to be elite QB we needed but the more I hear about his low completion percentage against mediocre competition makes me think he us just going to be another guy that keeps Auburn cursed.

Todd was great against mid tier foes but he was pretty weak against the good teams.

Would absolutely love to have him now though

I think Peyton Thornes struggles may be teaching freeze that he needs to be heavily involved and Philip Montgomery needs to b assisted. Recruiting is waaaay more important right now, but If the QBs look God awful it will eventually start to affect what players think about how they'll be developed. Im glad this is happening now so MAYBE Hugh can prevent it from happening to Walker.

That’s not really true

Walker White - Top 100 player
Hank Brown - 3 star nobody
Holden Grenier - Top 250 player
Demetrius Davis - Top 250 player
Chayil Garnett - 3 star nobody
Bo Nix - Top 100 player
Joey Gatewood - Top 100 player
Tyler Queen - was highly rated then turned into 3 star nobody
Sean White - Top 100 player

If you go by the recruiting services, we’ve actually done a good job recruiting QBs. Unfortunately it’s just rarely worked out for us

It’s hard to get the right QB. Look at Bamas room, UGA and Clemson. UGA’s best was a walk on and he supplanted 5 stars. Bama hit with Tua and Mac but Jalen was not a good QB and their current highly rated room is a disaster.

Clemson hit HR with Trevor and Deshawn but other than those it’s been tough sledding.

And u can make a strong case that the best are because of their WR room not due to QB!

Bro he almost won MVP last season.

Damn what did I get called out for?

You know what you did.

Did we get an updated list of everyone who made it to the game today? Probably going to take a little while to get any quotes about the game, but today was a good showing for the recruits. They see the plan and that we just need them to come in and make the difference.. hopefully lol.
