Texas A&M Football: The case for who should be the next starting QB

Max Johnson

Unfortunately, the Aggies are very familiar with Max Johnson. Fortunately, he will not be on the other side of the ball when we face him now. With how disastrous LSU’s season looked last season Max was one of the few bright spots. He has a big arm and is the ideal size for a QB. Throwing 2,800 yards, 27 TDs, and a TD:INT ratio of 4.5:1 is very good considering he got sacked 33 times last year (6 by A&M alone).

The Case: One of the big factors Max Johnson has over the field is he is experienced. He has played in the SEC West for two years and played in 13 SEC Games. He has knowledge and experience on how each team plays. 99.9% of the time you do not transfer somewhere to just ride the bench. I know his brother committed to Texas A&M but I cannot imagine coming in to sit. I believe Max will play a few downs in the first two games for Jimbo to get a feel of how the offense operates. But if neither Weigman nor King looks ready for Miami it will be Johnson’s race to lose.
