Wilson may be the best in the SEC, but he's the best in that system. He could suck in LSU's.
Wilson does run LSU's system some of the time - I-form with play action fake off it. But our offense is much more complex than LSU's and we also run a lot of shotgun and empty sets, although I expect to see more run game this year with Davis back and no more Adams, Childs, Wright.
What is so difficult about handing the ball off and throwing it every now and again that Wilson could suck at? lol...

Now, I would switch him with Wilson, but AJ, Nah

Wilson can't run the short side option...

Still a valid point in regards to this discussion even if it has been repeated 3 million times. It's not like I started a new thread to let you know about it.

True enough. It's moot now. Looking forward to a scrimmage, then a real game to see how things are going to shape.

I bet Miles didn't even give Mett a chance last year. Miles is loyal to his upper classmen....

I can understand a LSU not wanting AJ or even Wilson for that matter. Yeah it makes sense to take the proven guy, but its damn exciting waiting on the unproven new guy. Not knowing what to expect and hopes are high. Homer tendency also plays a role. He is YOUR new guy and we always feel like our guys are going to pan out.

True, but I would take Wilson in a heartbeat for Mett. I would guarantee a NC if we had him

Nothing guarantees a NC. QB's get injured. Mett's a big boy, probably the least likely to be injured.

I am getting a little nostalgic thinking about it

I don't really think Alabama's QB is all that great, and I feel really strongly that Mettsiah will have a great season.

Yea ...I can see why you would think this. All those games he cost Bama and all.

How well can AJ run the short-side option?

LSU fans - would you switch QB's with Bama?
I like QB's with atleast a little mobility and Mett has zero. Yeah I know. Peyton Manning and Tom Brady says hi. But its just what I like in a QB.
Mett did run a naked bootleg for an (apparent) 25 yard TD vs Ole Miss, that they called out at the 1. Miles had him kneel 3 straight times.
Hopefully he won't need to be very mobile if we get our running game going and do play action.
You're statement that Mett has "zero" mobility has not been proven yet - but, nice try. I know you're so hopeful.

Ooow, did we hoit your widdle feeewings?
Never, ever say one syllable negative against the Alashama Mulligumpnecks, or the world as we know will come to an end....
Even the slightest hint of anything negative about the fabled and awesome Crimson Taaahd will cause Cecil Houndstooth of Bumminghayum to wretch his Golden Flake Potato Chips up into his crimson spittoon.

I think people are looking atthis wrong... Mett could be a very great QB. He has everything you need to be a great player. He succeeded at JC. He went to UGA with people knowing he could bring it.
It's not like this kid is an 18 year old who has never played away from home. And if he doesn't pan out I don't think that means he sucks... It means he plays at AJ level. Mett is the obvious choice IMO. He throws a very catchable ball and I think he will have lots of success.
Its not like the choices are amazing or shite. He will be servicable.

You lost the man that was piloting that ship. Dont be too disapointed when it isnt running like the well oiled machine you are used to.
