I think you're right. But his Dad actually brought up a really great point in his interview this week. It was that Joe hadn't seen meaningful game action since High School. Which at the point was well over 3 years prior to LSU.
So you got a kid he's a first time starter, working off 3 years of rust, now inserted into the toughest conference in America.
When you start coupling that with what you said, which I think is spot on, I think it goes a long way in making sense in his huge jump.
