Does anyone else believe we'll see a 2QB system in 2015?

2006 - Florida utilized Chris Leak and Tim Tebow
2007 - LSU utilized Matt Flynn and Ryan Perrilloux
2013 - MSU utilized Tyler Russell and Dak Prescott

I agree with many on here that Miles will not allow Harris to win the starting job in practice, but when considering his comments (taken with a grain of salt) that both QBs are much improved and that neither has distinguished himself as the starter, it doesn't seem like Jennings has established himself as THE GUY either.

This just seems like the most plausible outcome to me.

I hope not. It's the biggest thing I dislike about college football.

Just perfect.
Neither can get the job done by themselves so we let both of them get out there and run around.

It Amazes me.
Have heisman and all Americans all over the field at every other offensive skill position and we have hard time getting someone that would undoubtedly start under center at every high school in La.

I don't have a problem with situational insertions of a QB into the lineup. I don't want to see a platoon system.

I just want the best guy, whether it be a much improved Jennings or Brandon Harris to emerge. Two-QB systems don't work well to me because if one messes up it psyches him out too much that he may lose the job. We need a LEADER on this offense.

We have nothing to gain from it. They aren't good at different things. Harris has better talent, and if he plays and does well there is no reason to split time with Jennings. If Jennings plays, than Harris couldn't beat out dogshit, and will transfer. That Easy

I would say we have a better chance of .5 qb system, kind of like most years.

I do think we'll see a 2 QB system, if by "2 QB system" you mean Jennings starts every game and Harris only comes in for mop up duty.

Either way, they'll both be doing the same thing primarily, handing the ball off to our RBs.

I don't think this will ever happen. Whichever way Miles goes for a starter, that will be the approach. He does not believe in situational use of QBs. Reflect on how many times he has said, "we tried to get so and so in the game, but the situation never presented itself."

I believe we'll see two QBs but whether a reasonable onlooker would call it a "system" remains up in the air.

No, Jennings is the starter and will start each game unless he is injured......just accept it and it will be easier on you.

I really hope Moles doesn't employ a two QB system. They can work but not very often. I again hope Harris can find a way to separate himself in the race. I think he has the talent to do some special things. I am now questioning his mental and football IQ. I hope I am wrong.

I'd be happy to see a one good quarterback system.

I don't think so. The basic skill sets of the two are not really different enough to offer distinct advantages in scheme by having one or the other in. I would say Harris appears more athletic, but if that has not been enough to propel him to the top, there must be reasons.

Whoever Miles sees as least dangerous with the ball will get the nod.

I'm just trying to believe LSU will have "a" functional quarterback for the Fall season.

Just 1 that can complete about 55-60% of the passes.

I don't think they differ enough for a 2 QB system to be feasible.

Yes Jennings starts and Harris gets promised playing time and Miles responds the situation wasn't right.

This dumbass statement just left the rest of your post unreadable. Have a down vote.
