I'm sure you've heard the news this past weekend about the release of Ryan Perrilloux,
LSU's starting quarterback for
2008. From what I'm hearing, this departure will not affect LSU.
There are two red-shirt freshmen who are doing well in spring
practice.
Coaches are liking Jarrett Lee, a freshman from Brenham, Texas. Lee was a
class 5-A All-state quarterback and had
scholarship offers from many football powerhouse programs. Lee is a
6'2", 190 red-shirt freshman who is very smart and knows the playbook
forwards and backwards.
The other guy who is doing very well in practice and giving Lee a run
for his money is Andrew Hatch who is a 6'3", 214 junior from Henderson,
Nevada (by way of Harvard) with a strong arm and great foot speed. Lee
and Hatch both have some similarities to Matt Mauck and Matt Flynn, and
LSU won national titles with Mauck and Flynn in their senior seasons at
LSU.
