it sure makes you appreciate Ryan Higgins more, doesn't it? If there was ever any one that had the rug pulled from under him and still stuck with the team, it was Ryan.

Had forgotten about Ryan, guy deserved to play some just to honor his perseverance.

I agree, seems like these kids(some) don't want to compete anymore.

There's not a chance in h*** Walker could play at lsu. I don't care how bad their QB situation is. He had been passed up by Aaron Allen and it wasn't particularly close. He's going to Trinity Valley CC.

I love a conspiracy. I should have better sources.

How about Maxie Causey who was Luke's backup for four years.

They’re are built up so much from all the recruiting websites and recruiters inflating their egos. And the “selfie” generation who all want to be Instagram or YouTube stars

Holtz comments on Walker "I'm a fan of Walker, he is a really good young man". He wanted to play now but couldn't beat out Elliott for the #2 QB spot. Only the starter and #2 get practice reps; #3 has to stand and watch with the other backups...

No, Coach! you need to bar Walker from transferring to another CUSA school and any on our OOC in the next two years!!!

Or...simply do the right thing and release him and wish him the best of luck. Which is exactly what Holtz did. Well done, Skip.

. . . and Andy Robinson, the St. Frederick HS coach in Monroe. He and I talked Tuesday about the topic of players hanging around:

"When Luke came Maxie and I looked at each other at the first practice and I said, 'I'm not leaving,' and Maxie said, 'I'm not either'."

Do we know for sure whether there were no conditions on his release? I don't recall seeing anything about it.

Why bother, everything I see about LSU doing it mentions the rule being dropped in October.

I wasn't suggesting we should have put conditions on his transfer, I simply was wondering whether we know there were none. The rule will change in October, but he transferred in August.

I didn’t think you were, I’d just prefer we didn’t.

The comment about the #3 sitting around and watching is so far from the truth it's not even funny.

Yeah, shouldn’t the third stringer be running scout team, or holding for kickers?

Notice he said "with the other backups". He probably means reps with the first unit.
