This is a huge question mark for them that isn't getting asked about enough.
Realistically, how good will he be?
They seem to believe they got something
"One of the top QBs in America" LOL. I must've missed that

He might be pretty good but there was a reason they went and got burrow.
Brennan, himself...was LITERALLY the reason they went and got Burrow!Quote:

ie - Not that great, but decent with good (surrounding) talent.

Brennan isn't good. He was never good. Signed because of who his family is
Not saying Brennan will be good but ... going into last year everyone on this board thought Burrow sucked too.
ETA: However, if Brennan was our QB going into this year, he'd be the next Joe Montana like Tommy was last year ***
I think this is the right answer. He'll be serviceableQuote:

It is always tough following a legend. They also lost a ton of talent to go with Joe Brady leaving along with the DC. If LSU wins 10 or more then it shows that Coach O is better coach than a lot of people give him the credit.

A good way to waste a scholarship on someone that doesn't need the scholarship to pay for school to begin with. They may offer a roster spot to the kid of a prominent family or booster but I don't see them giving away a scholarship to Brennan solely based on who his parents are, especially when they needed a QB. I mean when he was signed it wouldn't have made sense if they didn't really think he could potentially be a good QB. The QB room when he was signed was pretty bare.
The kid was a high 4* out of high school and the number 6 pro style QB in the country for his class. He had a decent offer sheet as well. He only broke about every passing record the state of MS had.
All this to say, he won't be Burrow or anything close but he will be serviceable and he will have some stud athletes to throw the ball to. I think LSU ends up a 9-3 or 10-2 team. The kicker IMO will be the Texas game early in the season. I think we'll have a good idea of what he'll look like after that game. I can say I wouldn't mind having him on our roster under Leach. I think he would do well in Leach's system.
His ranking was propped up by an LSU offer given due to who he is. LSU has always struggled with quality QB play minus a guy here and there. Instate schools didn't push for him. I saw him several times and was never impressed. Favre was better.Quote:

Tommy did get drafted... just saying..Quote:

I think you know what my point was tho. Mainly I'm not sure we'll know till 4 or 5 games into the season about Brennan.
If Joe Burrow had a 95 rating. Myles Brennan would be a 80.
He didn't get an offer from us or TSUN.Quote:

I?m not like 90% of posters on here who claim to have sources and pretend to know shit when they don?t, but you need to let this one go because you?re wrong. I?m not saying he deserved his rating or he?ll light the world on fire, but he has the tools to do it. LSU doesn?t give scholarships to people because of their parents unless their are LSU blue bloods.Quote:

He will be solid. His biggest problem is the talent LSU lost at WR. I could have thrown for 3K with those guys they had. Burrow was outstanding and really thrived- but he had a damn good supporting cast as well.
LSU will step back some this year after losing alot of damn talent. But they recruit so well- 8 wins is their floor. Brennan is a veteran now and should be decent. He will likely carve up our weak secondary and LB's in BR this Fall. I will be surprised if the game is within 2 scores
remind me how many wins in Baton Rouge we have in the last 30 years?Quote:

LSU will have a big setback this season.
Let's recap:Quote:

Myles is a great kid. I don?t think he has the arm strength needed or the mobility to thrive.Quote:

And I wouldn’t be shocked if there is a QB change during the season... it will still have enough talent and the schedule sets up well for them which should result in 8-10wins
Average. Like LSU will be. 8-4.
He played at St Stanislaus and they ran up the score in a weak region. He will be Danny EtlingQuote:
