Jaxson Dart: I've tried to model my game after Jalen Hurts.

I mostly agree with you but theres a few variables. Yes, Nuss will improve quite a lot, but let's not pretend LSU's offensive play calling was good last year. I may be exaggerating slightly, but you could debate the play calling was bad.

If the play calling turns out similar to last season, its possible Nuss doesn't end up being a top 5 pick. Then again, it may not matter. Look at Dart. His struggles last season weren't because of him, but mostly because of how bad the Ole Miss offensive play calling was. He started the offseason as a estimated 3rd round pick and has now climbed into top 10 pick as people have watched game film, watched him play, and recognize the play calling was doing him a disservice.

you make a solid point. At times we couldn't buy a 2 yard run on 3rd and 2. We didnt throw to the back out of the backfield or utilized the middle of the field. Ole Miss, i agree was similarly bad, they either throw deep or run Dart. So i agree, but i still think Nuss will overcome his play calling. He's a coaches son, seems to live and breathe football. He seems hard on himself and will take the heat as opposed to pointing fingers.. But yea, im betting, but i think its a safe bet. (for another conversation, id like to be convinced that Dart is a legit QB for the Saints)
