re: Here is what I learned about JL today

No agenda. I just do not understand how blind people are on here. LSU averaged more points this past year than the previous. HOWEVER, we could not run the ball - meaning we were forced into throwing way more than we should have. The second reason was the obvious - LACK of defense. Everyone will agree those 2 are the most important components for winning championships. I am watching the '03 replays. That team was so solid on D and could run. They won games. They also had a 24 y/o QB - not a 19 y/o.
My point is Crowton needed to earn his pay. He should not have put the pressure on JL within their own 20 yard line like Gary Daniels said the minute before JL threw that pick.
Again, there is no agenda - keep the pressure off of the QB and run the football consistently. That is as simple as I can state it.

Our DL put us behind in almost every game

Our DL? Really? I thought our DL was pretty good most of the time. To me it seemed that it was our secondary and LBs in pass coverage that were the bigger problems.

Here is what I learned about JL today
Well the film study sounds logical b/c JL couldn't read any defensive set on any down. This was evident that if you watched JL last year you would notice that he was pretty effective when he his primary receiver was open, but he struggled and almost paniced when he was forced to look at his second receiver, or God forbid his third receiver. So his arse better be learning how to read defenses and study film or he will be playing at some multi-directional school in 2010

JL MAY start the season at #2, BUT will p1ay more than the others. LM felt "pressure" and forced himself to play JJ. Let's keep in mind the truth. The GENIUS OC Crowton was no better than AZZWIPE on CBS ANALYST CALLING the plays before they happened in ALL of those game! A change of pace would be more like it. JL WAS THE THIRD RATED QB GOING INTO LAST SPRING BEFORE THE RP CRAP! JR struggled during his tenure at LSU from lack of film study. GO look at Nicko's trust in his playing time. As most people would say, if the 2nd QB was better than the first, he would be playing. The injury situation to Hatch hurt him more than anything. Get real, JJ will NOT be able to run the ball if LSU Can't RUN the football. LAST YEAR WE SUCKED! That start's with Herman Johnson. He Sucked at Run Blocking. He won't sniff the field in the NFL unless he improves his footwork. We have to be able to run the rock. it is that simple. When Arkansas figured that out, they ate JJ up. He played about 3/4's total time that would win in the SEC last year. That is it. The SEC defenses will eat his lunch if he doesn't learn to read. just ask JL.

According to Doc, you just "defended" his play. Any suggestion that Lee has a chance to start is defending his play, and makes you stupid, irrational, probably racist, and absolutely clueless about football.

I consider this post as starting to make personal attack on a LSU tiger player would is still a tiger come on get over this personal attack.

This is the problem with the Lee/Jefferson debate. Too few people will just flat out say that both of them have a realistic chance at winning the starting job and leave it at that. Too many people have to act like they are "cooler" because they "know" who will be the starter 6 months from now.

I think you make good points about various topics. But, I think you're biased about the Jefferson/Lee debate. It's not a criticism... and I'm not trying to be condescending or pejorative.

The play on the field is what matters. The ability to lead the team is what matters. As QB, making the right decisions and not placing your team in a bad situation is what matters.

I might be "biased" because I didn't see some of Lee's best performances (like Troy, for instance), but I saw most.

You might be right in calling into question abject criticism or personal attacks on the player... but I really haven't seen that from Doc. From others, yes.
