Louisiana: 'We feel like we got the state's best player at quarterback'

[NewsCopy]

Louisiana football stamped its 2023 recruiting class on National Signing Day and what better way to close it than believing you landed the state's best player at the 11th hour.

It will be an interesting off season. If Lunch is as good as advertised you gonna have your 2 most God given talented QBs, being a RS Freshman and a true Freshman. Along with your 2 most experienced, if Ben’s rehab goes as scheduled. Curious to see how this plays out.

If I were a betting man my money would be on ZC to win the job.

ZC just seems to have that muscle twitch that nobody else in that room will have. I agree.

IMO
A & 1A ZC & DW aka Lunch
C Ben
D Fields

Clearly I’m down with the best in practice should start, but Lunch needs maturation and experience
Ben won’t have any spring training and nobody knows about the fall season. Fields might start but appears to be too small to hold up. Thus ZC is my 2023 starter going forward.

Look, clearly things can change, but I see:

Chandler starting the season as the #1
Zeon Chriss as the #2 (mostly because Ben won't have the practice time that the others will have).
Ben at #3 as he works himself back into shape
DW/Lunch as #4 mostly because we can use a RS on him.

i like the take because Arch Manning was playing in the state at QB. Go on record saying we got someone better than him, its bold, and its refreshing, and it should be a take more people across the board in all our sports should have moving forward.

We’re fortunate to get this young man. No doubt, according to Lunch himself, we owe the signing to CMD who he loves for several years.

I believe he’s a lot like Brian Mitchell vs Tommy Hodson & Terrance Jones for Tulane. IMO he was the best player of that group for college quarterback.

Manning probably will have a great career at Texas, but Lunch is way more valuable to us than Manning would be. Of course all that is based on their uninjured status like Smart and Kobe Julian in basketball. I’d love to see how that would have played out without injury and cheating scandal for lilWillie.

This will be the Zeon Chriss show.

I believe we got the best QB in state last year also. the head to head meetings was eye opening. again, the name, hype was just better for the other guy. Crazy to think we did it 2 years in a row.

I predict another QB lost in the portal after spring ball.

Consider he had legitimate offers from Virginia and UCF, and the staff didn't offer him until December, he's a major get.
