re: Why do Shreveport people have such a hard-on for Brandon Harris?

Better talent doesn't equal playing time to CLM. I believe CLM takes his job of head coach of LSU football similar as he would raising his own children. After all, they are watching his actions on/off the field as we are. He treats his players as his own kids, as a mentor and father figure...probably why he is such a great recruiter, as a parent myself, I definitely respect that. If you want it, you HAVE to earn it, nothing is given, from nothing earned. I like that. He is teaching his players more than just football, because life is more than football, and I think he takes this very seriously, as any parent should.

Exactly. He won the job and Harris did nothing to win it back. He (as many fans here as well) wanted the job given to him even though he was getting outworked by an older, more experienced player and proven winner.

The fact that it took Harris until the fall to realize he needed to be outworking Jennings is his own fault.

In any situation in life, if you want something someone else has (and Jennings WON the job) you need to go get it, not wait for someone to give it to you because you think you deserve it. Your own personal opinion of yourself doesn't mean as much as someone elses if they are the ones determining if you get what you want.

Harris should have known what time #10 was going to arrive and beat him by 5 minutes every day. If he did an extra hour of film study, I want two hours. If he stays around for 30 minutes with Dural after practice, I want an hour with Dupre and Quinn.

Worth repeating.
