Yea, his system prepares players for the NFL and doesn't do absolutely anything to help us win more college football games. We have one of the worst offenses in college football considering our talent level as I already pointed out.


Les Miles philosophy doesnt concern you or your opinions. He is looking to have a successful football program, and elevate his student athletes to the next level. He has his and their best interest in mind. Not yours

quote:

I never said that we continuously recruit 4* QB's, that would insinuate that we get one or two a year and our QB recruiting and retainment has been absolutely terrible since Cam showed up. We've had Lee, Jefferson, Jennings, Harris, and Mettenberger actually sign and stay and out of the ones that signed out of high school, how many of those turned out halfway worth a shite? They were all pretty solid talents and they all look like 2* players. Pretty sure Gunner Kiel's doing fine though and I don't hear him praising Cam Cameron


This is Cams third year here. He has recruited Brandon Harris and McMillan. The jury is still out on what those two will provide as only one or two coaches in the country can get production that quickly from his QB's and neither coach in the SEC.

Gunner Kiel transferred from Notre Dame and plays for Cincinnati. He never boarded the plane, and was neither recruited by or coached by Cameron....

quote:

How'd that work out? We had OBJ, Landry, Hill, Mett, and a solid line all at the same time and our offense was pretty average


In Camerons first year, the offense was average, but Mett had 4 different offensive coordinators in as many years. It took adjustment. In 2013, we broke SEC records and the offense saved the defense.

quote:

Yea, they talk about his ability to prepare them for the NFL. I've never once heard a current or former player say "Cam will have the best offense in the NCAA in a few years, just give him time". It's always "Cam teaches us so much and we're lucky to be learning a pro style offense in college to prepare us for the next level"


Some people sacrifice long term goals for short term gains. Its a matter of philosophy, and when youre the man in charge, you set the philosophy.

quote:

Kinda like Oregon and TCU? Those high powered offenses really shite the bed this bowl season huh? I'd much rather have a "gimmick" offense aka college level offense that players fully understand and execute than a pro style offense that neither Jennings nor Harris will understand this year and have to sit through incomplete pass after incomplete pass while we have one of the most loaded offenses talent-wise in the nation.


You see what we did to Oregon with Jarrett Lee as our QB in 2011 when our defense had time to prepare for them. We also beat West Virginia on their turf the same year. Ga Tech, Oregon, Texas Tech of old, all struggle when teams have time to prepare for their scheme, aka bowl games. How many National Championships has Oregon won with their super prolific offense?

quote:

Why exactly do you think we have depth issues? Talented high school quarterbacks have absolutely no desire to go to a school where every single quarterback has looked like complete shite with absolutely no improvement anywhere in sight. If kids were crawling out of the woodwork for play for Cam Cameron like you say they are, we wouldn't be in the position we're in right now with 2 true scholarship QB's on the team. I know you think you're giving some groundbreaking analysis by saying that we have depth issues but you obviously don't understand that there's a reason as to why we have them and it lies in the fact that Cam Cameron isn't making the necessary adjustments to be successful at the college level.


Again, its year three. Cameron will have had three years with Jennings(who he didnt recruit) and two with Harris at the end of this season.

Tell that to Franks, the #1 dual threat QB FIRMLY committed to LSU and one Cam Cameron all while knowing we need depth and are looking to add a 2nd QB this cycle to provide depth...
