Last year, Myles Brennan started as LSU’s quarterback. But, he suffered an injury against Mizzou and missed most of the rest of the season.

In the last 2 games of the 2020 season, in which the Tigers finished 5-5, freshman Max Johnson started, leading the Tigers to wins in those 2 games.

So, as the Tigers enter spring practices, coach Ed Orgeron said Johnson is getting the first reps at practice, but added that all the QBs are taking equal reps:

The issue will be what happens when a starter is named. If Johnson or Brennan wins, the other might transfer.

How will Coach O balance that? We’ll find out as the spring season moves along.
