re: The thing that puzzles me about the QB situation: play calling

But when I think back to the play calling during the MSU game, and while Jennings was in during the NMS game, then compare it to the play calling/formations used during Harris's time in the NMS game, it ALMOST seems to me that Jennings was the QB being "protected" by "safe" formations/play calling.
the offense that Jennings ran is the one Les wants to use. It calls for the QB to make the reads and adjustments, and to identify the pass coverage in order to find the open man. This is probably where Harris is behind in practice, hence the quotes by Les that Harris isn't quite there yet. When Harris was in the team basically ran "check with me" the entire time, which means Cam was making the call after looking the defense over.
It's pretty obvious at this point, that Harris in the "check with me" is the more effective strategy. So the dilemma for Miles, much like at other times in the past, stick with what is working now, or continue to try to make progress on the offense you really want to run.

All this. Many colleges use a check with me at all times, so it's not that big of a deal. BUT, i could see it causing some delay of game issues in SEC play. But as you mentioned, it's much better than the alternative.

Makes sense. I think I agree. Thanks.
