Nation's #1 QB class for 2013 now enrolled at LSU!!!
Page 4 of 11
  1. Can Jennings throw? And I watched a little of Rettig and he definitely looks more mobile than our current QB, but I'm not sure if we don't need an actual dual threat qb, not like JJ he was dual shit. A guy that can connect on opportunities through the air and make plays through the air because he is a threat to run, like Robert Griffin. It's a recipient for disaster in the NFL, but this isn't the NFL.
  2. No doubt, and pocket presence can't be taught. You either 'feel it' or you don't.
  3. ALABAMA DOES NOT LIKE NOR APPROVE OF THIS AT ALL!
  4. Maybe you are Kirby Smarter than I am, but I hadn't heard of this dude until Saban hired him. Saban helped in making this guy a big name. Chavis was well established.

  5. Does anyone know it Rettig is in classes today? wasn't he supposed to be in today?....where you at bhelm??
  8. what isn't a stretch is that they are both among the only 17 QBs in the 2013 class to be ranked a 4-star or higher by each of the four major recruiting services (Rivals, Scout, ESPN, 247). here's the full list of the 17:

    SEC
    Anthony Jennings, LSU
    Hayden Rettig, LSU
    Cooper Bateman, Alabama
    Brice Ramsey, Georgia
    Jeremy Johnson, Auburn
    Kohl Stewart, Texas A&M

    Big Ten
    Christian Hackenberg, Penn State
    Shane Morris, Michigan
    J.T. Barrett, Ohio State
    Matthew Alviti, Northwestern

    Pac
    Max Browne, Southern Cal
    Troy Williams, Washington
    Jared Goff, Cal

    ACC
    Kevin Olsen, Miami

    Big XII
    Cody Thomas, Oklahoma

    Other
    Malik Zaire, Notre Dame
    Asiantii Woulard, undecided

    JJ was a 3-star by Scout. Shepard wasn't ranked a dual-threat QB by ESPN, he was ranked as an ATH (similar to Texas QB commit Tyrone Swoopes of this class, some have him as a dual-threat QB, some as an ATH). As for how our QB recruits stack up in the recruiting rankings again each other:

    this is how Rivals graded them as recruits:
    5.9 -- Anthony Jennings
    5.9 -- Hayden Rettig
    5.9 -- Rob Bolden
    5.8 -- Zach Mettenberger
    5.8 -- Jarrett Lee
    5.8 -- Jordan Jefferson
    5.8 -- Zach Lee
    5.8 -- Jerrard Randall
    5.7 -- Stephen Rivers
    5.7 -- Chris Garrett

    and this is how ESPN graded them as recruits:
    83 -- Anthony Jennings
    83 -- Hayden Rettig
    81 -- Zach Mettenberger
    81 -- Rob Bolden
    81 -- Jarrett Lee
    80 -- Jordan Jefferson
    80 -- Zach Lee
    80 -- Jerrard Randall
    78 -- Chris Garrett
    76 -- Stephen Rivers

  9. It's a pretty safe bet to say that Miles will squander away their talent. Wait for it. It will happen. It matters not what we, the Les Miles detractors, say.
  10. We all know that you love tooting that ole horn for Les Miles. Don't be too disappointed when you see more of the same. It's not at all negative to make the assertion that things will remain the same offensively, it's simply a statement of reality.
