I know most of us have a good feeling or are at least exited to see Mett and at the same time most don't think AJ is the second coming of Montana. However, AJ is at least proven as "serviceable" and a gamer. Considering LSU's excellent defense, special teams and running game would you trade Mett's potential for the known of AJ?

Good question. I prob would bc of what you mentioned - LSU just needs a servicable QB to be successful.

Now if I were building a team from scratch and wanted to maximize the potential of my passing offense, I'd probably go with Mett bc IMO he has more physical potential, although he has yet to prove he can handle the pressure like AJ has.

I wouldn't. Mett is a huge dude.

I might trade him for Wilson, the best QB and toughest kid in the conference, and a tremendous leader. Outside of that, no.

One bird in the hand really is better than 3 in the bush. LSU has all the talent they need to win a national title so long as they have a solid QB. Mett might be great or he might be the next John Brantley. I can guarantee you the LSU coaches would take a guarantee at that position.

How well can AJ run the short-side option?

It depends on whether you're willing to trade upside/potential for someone that's already proven he can be clutch, but who's less talented overall.

maybe

AJ seems like a very solid option but Met seems like he has a much higher ceiling.

I don't know. Tough call.

Nope, I'm anxious and excited to see Mett play.

Yeah, AJ's good and had a good showing the national championship game, etc. but he could never get the ball in the endzone. This goes for both LSU games. 21-0 looks like an offensive arse beating but 5 field goals make up 5/7 of those points. So you Gumps claiming he'll be 10x better than Mett just because he had a few good drives should take of the crimson shades. He very well might be better than Mett, but the latter has yet to play in a meaningful SEC game. Let's let that happen first before we proclaim either one is better than the other.
