Louisiana's 2015 Quarterback Situation

[KajunKrazy]

I think tannehill for the dolphins, metenberger for the titans are 2 others.

I rest my case, the fact that we can come up with none and people on here are anointing Haack an NFL QB is preposterous. Trust me if he were "special" he would not have been on the bench/ redshirting for 3 years at a sunbelt school.

Having said that I am not pulling against or for any QB. If Haack is the next Brett Farve I will gladly eat crow. I just don't see it

I hope you're right... but if we don't showcase Haack next year... given your belief in his skills... because we chose an "offensive philosophy" that keeps him on the bench... an NFL QB... then the college football players turned UL coaches have a lower football IQ than a box of rocks. Wouldn't you say?

Again, I'm not going to deny he'll be as good as you say, any more than I'll argue with Kyle that McGuire will be eating dinner at the Heisman ceremony. That's outside of my prognostication skills. But, that doesn't mean it won't happen.

I'm just having fun with you. You started sounding cocky for a guy that spills his beer in the stands... where all of the low football IQ people congregate.

I know, and I didn't take offense. Hud will play the QB he wants to play in order to execute his scheme. Barry Switzer did it at OU and Troy Aikman transferred out because he wasn't going to play.

Haack is a stud, he just met not be what they want in a QB. But with the personnel we have returning, we have the opportunity to score a butt load of points.

I'm in agreement that we have the skill players next year that scream smart ball distribution. It may seem strange to say, but losing Harris is one of the best promotions for slanting the offense toward much more "ball in space" allocation. We can't expect to pound the pill and wear teams down. And our staff would be stupid to expose Elijah to excessive pounding. We need a gifted passer. A guy that can see the field... and drop the ball in spots only the intended receiver can touch. It's beautiful when it happens. And I think our skill people are set up for it. I'd love to be realigning our playbook around McGuire, Robinson, Scott, Fuselier, Riles, Johnson, Barnes, and others battling for PT... for spreading the ball with flipping, dinking, dunking, slinging, gunning, and bombing. I think it should be Haack's job to lose.

Agreed.

I'm not saying he is, was just trying to answer the trivia question

My only concern would be the lack of development of this WR Corps in 2014. We had very high expectations, and lets face it, no one really stepped up after Jamal went down. I realize that they were under-utilized, but thats not ALL on the staff and TB. The lack of redzone opportunities sent Jarrett Johnson's way is mind boggling. It's literally a tip drill with this guy. Also, tight ends were wasted. We had (and have returning) quality TEs that can help soften the middle.. I digress

No one stepped up? Are you kidding me....

I will tell you the 2 that stepped up big time in the passing game were J-But and Eli. Butler had 11 catches in the first 7 games for 119 yards, in the last 6 games he had 27 catches for 351. yards. If he had been running those numbers all season he would have finished with 59 catches for 761 yards.

Eli had to be the biggest to fill in for Jamal. Just finishing as the #1 receiver on the team from the backfield.

-----Don't forget Fuse and Riles who caught more and pressured the flanks with their speed sweeps----Agree with Johnson's red zone fade ability but he does need to play the rest of the field!!

I named 2 without doing any research. If i did I am sure I'd find more. Hell one of the guys I named only started for 2 years at an FCS school.

I'm not making a statement that Haack is going to be a pro but him not beating out an established starter does not say a damn thing about how talented he is.
