This coincides with his statement after the bowl game. He said the QB needs to account for 250 pass yds and 65% completion. Only one guy has shown the potential for doing that.
So he says this AFTER the season. Then why would you play one of the worst statistical qbs in LSU recent history.
They made up their mind early that we weren't going to throw much and it showed.
Compare that to OSU where they keep the same offense, but demand the next qb step up and perform instead of dumbing down the entire offense.
So they go from Miller, to the next guy and to the next guy....And on film you couldn't tell anything had changed.
You really can't protect a player or hide his faults in big boy football. You recruit guys you like, and when their # is called, you let them play like you expect. Set them free and decide if they are capable. I don't care if you have to go to a walk on, try and find the guy who can play, period.
We lost 5 games, what did we gain by handcuffing the offense?

No they didn't
We don't know what offense they were going to run with miller
With Barrett they threw a ton of short passes
With Jones and a healthy Elliot they ran the ball a ton and used downfield passing
The comparison to LSU is tOSU stayed in the gun and ran zone read with all three QBs. LSU complicates things by insisting the QB go under center and run I formation. This causes the LSU QBs to learn 3/5/7 step drops and reading a defense while dropping back. Which is hard to do
Plus the tOSU OL got better as the year went on

And this had us in the hunt until that abortion against Bama
Not that I'm defending our horrible QB development, it MUST get better.

CLM went with the best chance to win the games. The best chance just wasn't that good
