Les Miles on Mett's 2 TD's

quote:
New LSU quarterback Zach Mettenberger threw touchdown passes to wide receivers James Wright and Jarrett Fobbs to highlight the Tigers' second closed scrimmage of spring drills on Saturday in Tiger Stadium.
"Zach Mettenberger is getting the offense and making some really nice throws," LSU coach Les Miles said. "He’s a very talented guy. I think the two veterans (Jordan Jefferson and Jarrett Lee) still have an advantage with the understanding of the offense. I think after time Zach will compete with his advantages, but right now the experience of the veterans is showing."
Basically what he is saying is that Mett is an awesome talent but im going to start Jlee and Jefferson this year because they're seniors. Honestly i was expecting him to do so. But O well... here is to Jefferson having a breakout season.

Seniority > talent

Read much ?
He just stated once he learns the offense, JJ/JL's advantage disipates. It's all up to Mett - learn the O,run the O.

It's a reference to spring ball. Maybe this won't still be the case by the time of the season opener.

Are we running the same offense. 
Thought we had a new OC. Maybe LM is running the O afterall.

When will our drama queen fanbase figure out that they should stop trying to extract meaning from the things Miles says. He just opens his mouth and words come out. As wrong as the drama queens were last year, I'm surprised they still have the nerve to open their mouths.

It is JJ's to lose this year, Mett gets the keys to the offense next year. Mett will start for 2 years after JJ is gone.

Christ, we have the most idiotic fanbase of all CFB!

i don't think "understanding the offense" means senority.

I can always count on the morons in the fanbase to wring negative news out of every little soundbite or article.
How do you guys get out of bed in the morning? I mean shite, the world is such a negative place with all the destruction and despair. The sky is falling.

Miles has started underclassmen over seniors before in his coaching career.
There is something to be said for earning a job by being tested as opposed to being awarded a job without ever having been tested.
I wouldn't be surprised if Coach had a good understanding of the best way to integrate a new player into a successful team/system.

It's also a great opportunity to find out if Mett is ready...then he can go to JJ in the offseason and lay it out for him that Mett looks to have the job to lose.
Then he can give him a few choices of his new position....wait, is McCarthy still here?

no, he's saying that their experience is allowing them to perform better right now...

You read a simple and completely feasible statement from the coach then spun it to mean something bad that you made up in your own mind. The favorite myth of the small minded LSU fan that Les plays seniors over more talented underclassmen regardless of performance.

It'll be a cold day in hell if Miles thinks he can win an NC with Jefferson at QB. That guy couldn't decipher a defense if he was facing 9 guys on the field.

Am I wrong here or did we not hire a new O.C. and installing a new offense, how do they have an advantage other than being comfortable with the surrounding of LSU?

He threw them to Fobbs and Wright...should they start ahead of Randle as well.
WTF is wrong with you people.
