Built like Jamarcus. Extremely well spoken kid when you listen to his interviews. Seems bright. High school coach successfully ran a veer option attack for 30 years at two NOLA schools. He moved to a school on the north shore that had little success. He tried to run it with Finley and changed to the spread half way through his sophomore year. The coach and Finely took the school to the playoffs his senior year. It was their first trip in a while. Big arm. Had some accuracy issues in HS, but can throw it deep and hit deep outs, flags and seem routes with little effort. If he is accurate , I expect that he will give the safeties hell bc they won’t expect the speed of the ball on the deeper routes. Won’t give them a lot of time to get to the ball. Look for LSU to use screens and quick slants early, then throw very deep. Kid can easily throw it 60-65 yards.

You are not joking about accuracy issues. In his 3-year high school career he had a completion % of 50.8%. His SR year was 53.9%. I don't care how big your arm is if you can't hit your target it won't matter.
