Gunner Kiel, I'll say it...

I have serious questions on whether or not Gunner will be successful on the next level. We made him a 5star and theres no going back on that. He certainly has five-star talent. But history shows that commitment wafflers have a bad track record of living up to their potential and gunner had some of the biggest waffling I've ever seen.
I worry about a quarterback that handles the recruiting process the way he has. I hope he's successful but I'm starting to have some serious doubts.

I have a feeling he will be transferring in about two years.

He needs to get off his mother's apron strings. LSU is probably better off in the long run without him.

I would have changed my mind too after seeing LSU's offense vs Bama.

This is all very interesting. Somebody will probably bump this thread in a few years.

Zeke Pike probably deserves that star. He's never waffled.

I think he will be fine but it is concerning that he seems to change schools as much as a girl his age.

I would take it on behalf of the Indiana, LSU, and Auburn fans.

It makes no sense why Kiel is a 5* & Winston is a 4*. Winston has outperformed Kiel in every venue they have competed in and Winston seems more stable.

I don't profess to have a clue how this will work out in Kelly's system, but he will have a much better chance than what Crist was given. Crist was behind the 8 ball from the beginning. He came in, and for the first 2 years absorbed all of Weis's offense, and then to have to learn a totally different system under Kelly(different reads...ect.), he would have been better off transferring like the Michigan QB did when Rodriguez was hired(to Arkansas). I really think Crist will show his true abilities under Weis over at Kansas this next year. With that being said...Golson will take over the QB duties this year at ND, and Keil won't see the field at all. Golson has the speed to run, and has a cannon for an arm!! not sure how his "a bit taller than Doug Flutie" height will play out for him though. He's gouing to have to get outside the pocket for sure. God did bless him with speed though...
"Strap on" is "No parts" spelled backwards...coincidence--- I think not!

Both are 4 stars
Winston should be higher no doubt
I think its hilarious none of these sites think Miles is the best QB
Cause he clearly is and its not that close

I doubt you would have said that if he was transferring to Ala or USC.

Troll fail. Lynch and Tuitt waffled significantly, and they were both studs as freshman.

There are always exceptions. Not saying the kid is doomed. Like I said, I hope he's successful and he very well may be. But a QB that is this indecisive is worrisome.
