You are right. It's not bashing. It's just stupid.

You, me, and no one else knows yet if Jennings can be a good QB or not at the age of 19.

we need to see how practice goes. Until you win 80 percent of the games you coach just trust Les Miles.

If Jennings was going to start Les would have said so after the game like he did after the MSU game. Since he didn't it's obvious Harris is the guy

Speak for yourself. You may know your own abilities to evaluate QBs but that would be where what you know ends.

Besides, I said he is not a very good QB which I'm pretty damned sure is present tense.

Jamarcus Russel isn't a very good NFL QB. Now, I mean, I suppose if he sprouted a work ethic and lost 50 pounds he could change that, but, until then..........

I would not understand the logic of Jennings over Harris. Jennings has struggled majorly. Its not like hes that much more experienced then Harris. Jennings has not started on a SEC road game like Harris. Harris bring energy and a complete different attitude to the team. Harris is very explosive and actually puts up points and seems to make very good decisions. He is only going to get better. If he starts Jennings just for the first series to take pressure off Harris I am ok with it. If he plays Jennings the entire half and we can't even get a first down I am going to be so pissed and Les should get lip from everyone. We shall see but I hope Harris will start vs Auburn. I cannot wait. This is a very special team when he is running the offense, everyone is having fun and you can see how much better we are playing

Well, I'm more concerned about Porter making good snaps out of the spread throughout the game.

It won't happen that way unless things are going very well. And if that's the case why even complain?Jennings would start just to allow BH to see what the defense is doing and to allow them to ease him into the game.

He has a QB rating at the present time of 138, Coach. Most would call that good for a 19 year old kid getting his first experience in SEC football.

Let the successful guys getting paid millions to evaluate QBs do just that. No need for you to worry about it. I'm sure Cam and Les will call you if they need your help evaluating QBs.

He just said Jennings will get first snaps this week whatever that means. Sure he just meant he gets practice with the first team.

Not sure what connection you have to Jennings, but let it go. Throwing up numbers like qb ratings is kind of stupid. Jennings is struggling mightily right now, and it is clear that he has lost his confidence. You can spout all the numbers you want, but at the end of the day it is VERY OBVIOUS which qb is playing the best RIGHT NOW. Jennings will get his chance again at some point this season, but right now, this should be BH's time to take a shot, and I don't even think it is debatable. Let it go, again, Jennings will get his shot at some point again.

This is a fan MESSAGE BOARD, where we give our opinions. Of course the coaches are paid to make those decisions, but we can give our thoughts here, that's the whole point of why we're all here.

What do you think this board is for?

I don't need to let anything go and I don't care who starts or if Jennings starts again at LSU as long as we win.

I get tired of clowns bashing young players or making sweeping statements about ANY 19 year old kid based on a very limited playing time.

I'm happy for Harris. He has earned more playing time.
