    If Westin Elliott is the starter I won’t watch a game this year.

I got to stand on the field just a few yards away from Holstein as he was carving up our defense. He spins the ball better than anybody I've witnessed live at the high school level. He has a quick, easy release and tremendous accuracy. And the best part is that what I saw in 7-on-7 was backed up by production in pads on Friday nights. This kid is one of the best QBs in Louisiana over the past two decades and was talented enough to keep his job despite immense pressure from a talented backup QB who committed to LSU as a sophomore.

    The one thing that doesn't make sense to me is the fact that Holstein was willing to grayshirt and that we asked him to do so. I figured he would have plenty of options to get into school immediately and start competing. Reading the tea leaves, I would assume this means that Luke Anthony has the inside track to win the starting job for next season and that Aaron Allen and Holstein will battle for the starting job in 2021.
    Good info, Brett. I'm excited about his potential.

    Like you, I'm not sure I understand what's in it for an athlete to accept a "Gray shirt"? Then again, I'm not real familiar with the Gray shirt rules. Does this mean he forfeits a red shirt year? Or does the clock officially start on "5 years to play 4" when he first gray shirts?

    He enrolls for the Winter Quarter so when he participates in Spring practice in 2021, he has 5 years to play 4 starting then. So he could take a redshirt in 2021 if he doesnt win the starting job and then play in 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025.

    It's Tim Rattay's fault.

    Gray shirts don't sign a LOI either right?

    This allows them to walk away to another opportunity without the one year penalty. It also keeps the school from having to count the player in the numbers for the current year.

    So, it sounds like Holstein just waited too late to switch his commitment to LA Tech, and we had already signed the Anthony kid from ACU.

    Holstein had to have signed a LOI, otherwise Holtz wouldn't have been able to say his name or mention a single thing about him at the press conference.

    Eligibility is based upon when they actually enroll for classes, not when they sign the LOI.

    So does no one have any information about Jakson Thomson? Is he still with the program? Maybe just isn't progressing? Anything?

    He sounded promising coming out of high school. Of course, the shiny new thing almost always seems more promising than what you have had sitting on the shelf for a couple of years.
