When LSU starts throwing more is when Quinn will get more snaps. Right now the WR corp gets what it gets.

We do not throw many to the middle of the field. Our QB's don't look for it, and after JLee, it is very seldom called. When the TE or slot guys get a pass it is usually wide open. We could be far more prolific if we did this.

Also, I think Quin was put in the slot last year, but that was somewhat out of position for him. With his speed he could have easily been on the outside. If you look at the offense Dupree came from, Quin was easily a more polished receiver and has ability to break away as well as out jumping the DB. It think Dupree has improved tremendously, but is still learning the position. He has far better upside.

I also think that Quinn got blown up a few times with Jennings being late on throws last year and it showed in drops. He looks bigger this year and does seem to have accepted his role. I also think if you look at how Jeter was lit up against Auburn, Harris is doing some of the same things as Jennings, slow release, late on a read. However, the rocket arm he has helps with this. Until Harris gets better, we will continue to run Fornette and try to throw down the field. If you look at most of our pass plays, we have multiple receivers running wide open, they are selling out on the run. We just don't have a QB who can trly take advantage of the play action pass. Also, line play Sat didn't help.
