Last summer the rant identified the top 6 QBs in the SEC. With the advantage of hindsight, how would you rerank them today?

1. Garrett Nussmeier - Heisman favorite, the next Joe Burrow. Finished 7-6.

2. Arch Manning - a sure Heisman finalist and likely national champion. Finished 10-3, missed playoffs.

3. LaNorris Sellers - Heisman darkhorse, building on the previous season, likely playoff participant. Finished 4-8.

4. DJ Lagway - another likely Heisman finalist, the best player on the field, would finally lead Florida back to national relevance. Finished 4-8.

5. Taylen Green - darkhorse Heisman finalist pick, certain to lead Arkansas to a good season. Finished 2-10.

6. Jackson Arnold - Auburn fans loved their new dual threat, certain to put up huge numbers with Auburn’s stacked WR room, after the Baylor game there was talk of a Heisman. Finished 5-7.

How would you rerank these stud quarterbacks today?

Tell me more about KJ Jefferson’s performance as an Arkansas Razorback in 2025

Not sure what is more far fetched, Jefferson playing for Arkansas last year or anyone being excited about Arnold. Did ChatGPT hallucinate this post?

Making light of injuries is about the level of trashiness I'd expect from both the OP and yourself.

I’m starting to wonder if he’s finally lost his mind.

The Elite 11 king. He was great when there were no defenders and only 7-on-7. He was completely incapable of playing under pressure in a real game. He’s Mullen’s problem now.

I corrected it. That is how memorable a season Taylen Green had. But they were similar; big, athletic vastly overrated quarterbacks.

You made this post literally 2 minutes after a LSU fan did the exact same thing.

After the collective tantrum that LSU fans here threw wishing injury and death on Dallas Turner no LSU fan with any self-awareness would ever call out someone for making light of or celebrating an injury.

Two words why it’s a bad idea: Jackson Arnold. He’ll be a dark horse Heisman candidate by bedtime tonight.

That dude was never really hurt, that was just the excuse attempting to boost his draft stock. The truth is he just sucks, which is why he almost went undrafted

You could tell he was hurt in week 2 and definitely week 3. He had no zip on his passes.
