Just stating an opinion based on another player at LSU - Ryan Perrilloux. His stats were pretty impressive when he committed:
6-3, 223 pounds, quarterback... One of the most high-profile signees in LSU’s history ... Named the National High School Player of the Year by Ball Park and the National Offensive Player of the Year by USA Today ... A consensus five-star All-American by every major recruiting publication ... EA Sports Elite 11 Quarterback, Parade All-American, Touchdown Club of Columbus (Ohio) National Offensive Player of the Year, U.S. Army All-American Bowl Participant ... Rated the nation’s No. 1 prospect by ESPN ... No. 1 dual-threat quarterback who was nearly impossible to contain during his career ... Considered to have the strongest arm in the country with a quick release and pinpoint accuracy ... Racked up a Louisiana high school record 5,006 total yards of offense as a senior, including 3,546 yards passing and 1,460 yards rushing ... Accounted for 67 total touchdowns (30 passing, 37 rushing) in 2004 ... Had one of the most dominating high school careers in state history totaling 12,705 yards of offense (9,025 passing; 3,680 rushing) ...

Three-sport athlete who played shooting forward for the basketball team and centerfield for the baseball team ... and on and on.
A lot of potential, but he's finding it hard to do this against college competition. Granted he's had limited playing time and discipline issues, but that's part of the college experience too.
