What's your school's best and worst quarterback? For LSU I would say it's a toss up between Jamarcus Russell and Zach Mettenberger Russell had better numbers but also had Jimbo as his OC while Mett had cam for one year with the great Stud for his first. And for our worst QB Anthony Jennings no doubt

Aaron Murray and David Greene were the best. Both were 4 year starters who broke many SEC and school passing records.

The worst? I'm sure many had bad numbers before the days of spread/vertical passing offenses, but I can't think of a QB who regressed more than Quincy Carter. His first season was promising and his last was embarrassing.

Best ...

1 Connor Shaw
2 Jeff Grantz
3 Steve Taneyhill
4 Tommy Suggs
5 Todd Ellis
6 Phil Petty


We've had some othe good ones though like Ronnie Sunshine Bass, Bobby Fuller, Allen Mitchell, et al.



Worst

1 ... I'd hate to label one of the guys the worst but if I did it would probably have to be Dondriel Pinkins or Corey Jenkins under Holtz.

Best was Murray by a mile (Tarkenton if talking NFL).

Worst I've seen was Tereshinski.

I don't think Mettenberger is a top five LSU quarterback, much less top two (Jones, Davey, Hodson, Russell, Wickersham, Risher, Flynn, Mauck, et al). Sure, he had some great stats one year, but he was surrounded by NFL skill players and more importantly, I can't think of a game he won that actually mattered.
