He's considered the best qb in the nation by a lot of sources, including this one... LINK

but what has he accomplished that really deserves it? I realize statistics don't always tell the whole story but this isn't elite qb stats... LINK

maybe it's his cool name

He’s done a hell of a lot more than Bryce Young who’s getting more hype then spencer

What returning QB has accomplished more? Purdy? Maybe Howell?

Imagine not believing the hype of a QB that has played an entire season, meanwhile your QB hasnt started a game.

Highly rated coming out of high school + Lincoln Riley offense will always = big hype.

Riley does a great job with his QB's! He made Jalen a much better passer than Nick and staff did at Bama. He is great with his scheme of getting receivers into open space.

Now if he can get his defense to play at a higher level then that Wagon Crew is going to be hard to beat.

Lincoln Riley offense, they dont play a very tough schedule and the teams that they do play are in the big 12 so defense wasnt really their thing back when everyone else way playing defense. Oklahoma had back to back heisman winner qb's, back to back #1 draft picks. Kid was highly rated coming out of high school and is a junior now. I mean its all pretty clear why he's getting so much hype.

not implying he's elite either but last year Howell had better completion pct and a higher qb rating

Rattler

Howell

It's easy to project in a Lincoln Riley system. It's also the big 12-2.

yeah. Nevermind the fact that Bryce Young wasn't even mentioned till he posted, but Alabama lives rent free in the minds of so many LSU fans.

Howell: 68% completion, 10.3 ypa, 3586 yards, 30 tds, 7 ints, 179.1 rating

Rattler: 67.5% completion, 9.6 ypa, 3031 yards, 28 tds, 7 ints, 172.6 rating


Fair enough but we are probably splitting hairs here

Finished 10th in the country in yards, 8th in TDs and lit up Florida to close the season too.

Not to mention the Lincoln Riley factor.

He beat down Florida. I'm not sure what returning QB looked better in their last appearance. I always think the OU hype is a joke, but if and Alabama returning QB played as well as Rattler in their last appearance you'd say he was a Heisman front runner.

Is a cool name

Sorry to see his parents' best effort was "Spencer", with all due respect to other Spencers out there.

Rattler, woulda-coulda-shoulda
