The O line, playcalling etc. has to gel; hopefully with Met at the helm gives us much better playcalling options but that depends on u no who!

50/50 Mettenberger and Jerrard Randle? No way!! Although this is Les we are talking about. I pray that a JJ vs JL situation never happens again!!

Man you all are sleeping on Stephen Rivers. You all see his brother phillip with San Diego. He has some serious Football DNA.

they are assuming that les will play him. that's an awful big assumption.
a lot of coaches would have played mett this year.

That's the irony. If [Mettenberger] does as well as we hope/expect, then we'll wonder why the hell he didn't play this season.

Mett will probably be converted to wide receiver.

I don't think so. Miles petioned the NCAA for an orange shirt year for the time JJ missed being wrongfully accussed of a felony

ESPN is lying. Coach Miles said that Mett was thrid string cause he hadn't grasp the playbook, etc. It's theoretically impossible for Mett to go from 3rd string to breakout player in 3-4 months. I believe Coach Miles. ESPN full of dodo

said he would have LSU at the top again,and we could finally utilize our skill players on the perimeter.Feels good to hear news like that,and get this JJ crap behind us.It's time to move on,quit worrying about things we can't control.
I certainly hope so, but I've heard this every year since 2007.

Exactly GEaux2002. That's what some of these folks are pissed about is that's what's been expected and told since 2007 and these folk done had enough of CLM. He lost some credibility.

Hence, I have zero confidence that the right QB will be on the field.
NONE.

Seriously, how long could it possibly take to grasp this playbook?

I hear Rivers has impressed coaches during his redshirt year. Can't wait for the spring game to see some new faces under center.
Mett's gotta fix that stance when he's under center though-looks like he's takin a dump.

There's only one game we would be wondering about Mett playing, of course, since LSU won all the others. And it should be pretty clear that QB was only one of the many, many problems in the last game. Foremost was poor coaching/preparation. And poor OL play. And I really think having to play a team that LSU beat before, with that great achievement thrown in the crapper by the media, was too much of a downer to play with the level of emotion needed.
So I won't be wondering what would happen with Mett playing that game. Instead, I'll be pissed a long time at the way LSU had their win thrown out. Hell, we would have been better off being the ones who lost by 3 to them Nov. 5. I think the proper motivation would have ensued and LSU would hold the crystal ball.

Will most certainly split snaps with Jerrard Randle
THIS IS WHAT I FEAR!!! Alabama proved once again that you don't need a "dual-threat" QB to win the title. Brees certainly doesn't run the ball. You only need to scramble 2-3 times a game to get a needed first down, etc.

i remember them saying that exact same thing about JJ after the GT game lulz

Making my reservations for Miami now.

With 4 quality QBs going into next season how in the hell can CLM make the right decision? No matter who he goes with, half the fan base will be pissed with his choice
