depth chart: Nixon now No. 2 UL quarterback behind Jennings

[KajunKrazy]

Two coaches have told me this kid has all the physical tools needed to be very good at this level fast, athletic, with good arm. It's the speed of the college game and the mental part that he is having trouble with.

Are you talking about Davis or Ray?

Hud best have a JC stud QB coming in next year or the downward spiral continues. I don't claim to be a coach or former coach, a talent guru, an over the top fan that knows everything down to a player's shoe size or such. But this faceless buffoon has seen enough life to know what is coming if this is NOT fixed next year. A perfect storm to cripple attendance in the major sport and fund raising, which will hurt all sports. And the band plays on in the SLC 2.0.

He. Can't. Throw. The. Football.

I am talking about working on development. Did you see that I said not this year? Invest your time and energy into developing him now so he can at least be in a position next year to compete for that job. What else do you have there? You know who else had that stigma about them when they first started at UL? Desormeaux. It was the same debate about him back then as well. Move him somewhere else, he's too talented not to be playing etc... They worked on developing him and became a great player in the right system. Read my statement again....

This crap again. Maybe they can run Jennings one play and Nixon the next play. Sounds like a great idea, should work..................

(Reference last year)................I need a drink.

One of the biggest problems we have in the passing game is giving our quarterback the time needed for the play to develop. An effective offensive line makes an average quarterback look great.

If he used like he was against Boise I have no problem with it. It will be scary if Jennings goes down (which chances are he will) and the future of this program if we can't get a true quarterback in here.

We had a true quarterback last year...Hud ran him off because Hud is smarter than everyone else.

That offense would do nothing in this era of college football. Ray can't throw. Period. They can work with him as much as they want. His arm is nothing close to the other QBs, his accuracy is very bad, his decision making is worse. He is not a D1 QB. He's a terrific athlete that needs to be utilized else where.

Btw, do you really have faith in this staff to develop a project QB? If so, where's the evidence?

Do you trust your practice eye after what you predicted from the offense? Should we?

Anyone see how he played last weekend?

Anyone see how he played last weekend?

Didn't watch and kind of hard to say as they got raped by Baylor (pun intended.)

But he was 3 for 13 for 14 yards...
