re: #1 QB Gunner Kiel to commit to LSU

I also am not a big fan of Kiel as a prospect and never have been aside from his mental preparation for the game. The analysts either see something I don't or they are really selling bs for a living. He's got talent for sure but he just doesn't impress me and I hate the comp he plays. I'll take him though because of the possibility that he's as good as the analysts say he is and because I like the qbs we already have.

The kid graduates early and qualifies to go to Vandy. The kid is smart and they say though he is not a true dual threat QB he moves in and out the pocket very well which means he will be able to run the option. On top of that he is deadly acurate which means that the short passing game LSU plays will be right up his ally. Maybe he won't pan out, but thats a pretty good start.

Still think we won't get him but it sure is nice being in the running. ND offensive coordinator Charley Molnar was the one recruiting him. With him leaveing for UMass it may be a plus for LSU or Vandy as well.
