re: Per miles "Harris to get first snaps at scrimmage, Jennings to get some snaps"

You going by what Harris says after the fact is like listening to Les. He is saying what he thinks you need to hear. Driskill was terrible and got replaced. Jennings did not. He stayed and got worse and worse. I know anyone that argues for 50plus pages that Jordan Jefferson is either stupid (most likely) or either mentally challenged (probably this also). The guy was bad. Jordan Jefferson was bad. It looks like we are finally going to be the more talented qb on the field. That is good for LSU football. No amount of charts or JJ worship will help you. You seem like a sad sad soul

Find a post, one, where I said that. I have said Miles is hardheaded and is quick to revert to chickenshit football many times. I stand by that 100%
When something isn't working on the field, it's best to play to your strengths even it takes going to the extremes. The staff did what it had to do last season which is what good coaches do.
quote:
In what has to be an obvious conclusion now that regular season is over, the LSU Tigers’ coaching staff reached the correct conclusion in committing to the running game. In fact, doing so likely saved the season for the Tigers due to the uneven performances of the quarterbacks. Freshman Leonard Fournette would become the featured running back, and LSU Tigers football synonymous with running it down your throat.
quote:
In the days before the Florida game in early October (and after the debacle at Auburn), LSU coach Les Miles stated that the Tigers would be a run-first team, and he stayed true to that commitment for the remainder of the season. Even when there were in-game situations calling for passing, Miles and offensive coordinator Cam Cameron remained steadfast to the run-first philosophy.
quote:
LSU started off 0-2 in SEC play, losses that reinforced the Tigers’ inefficiencies on offense, mainly quarterback play. The fact that the Tigers rebounded to win four of its last six SEC games is a testament to the coaching staff’s commitment to the offensive philosophy of pounding the rock.

So was Jennings... and a hell of a lot earlier than Driskel.
And his replacement was given a chance. While Harris was hurt, it is completely understandable as to why he didn't play. His ankle was well enough to take some snaps, he should have been given more opportunities down the road. Like against Kentucky, like Arkansas and easily against notre dame. No excuses for him not getting more PT

you sound upset.
calm down, its just the internet.
I'm not the one losing this argument . . . badly.
You're the one arguing that Harris should have played. Harris is the one telling you that he was injured and NOT mentally ready to play. So you project your frustration on me and say that I'm mad?
quote:So when Jennings was injured, the coaching staff decided that it might make sense to play a QB who was LESS injured?!?!
also, during the bama game, Jennings was knocked down for a play. Harris was on the sideline taking snaps, and i think was about to go in before LSU called a timeout. i cant exactly remember, i was pretty hammered it was in the 2nd half.
:GASP:
quote:You DOUBT it . . . even though Harris said he was injured.
my point being, harris may have hurt himself against auburn, in the first week of october, but i doubt the ankle sprain was the reason he was kept out against arky.
You DOUBT it . . . even though Harris said he was NOT ready.
You DOUBT it . . . even though Elliott Porter and Vadal Alexander were out of the game, and it made MUCH more sense to have a mobile QB to avoid the rush rather than a QB who was suffering from a high ankle sprain.
Gosh, who am I to refute your DOUBTS with mere FACTS.
quote:Yeah, we've discussed that game. His production in that game (the lowest QB Rating of the 2014 season) hardly supports the notion that he was healthy enough to be substituted for Jennings against Arkansas.
this is further evidenced by him playing against UK.
quote:An excuse for what?
please stop trying to use this as an excuse.
The coaches decided to keep Jennings in the game against Arkansas. Why do you suppose they did that?

Miles is lying! Harris is lying! EVERYBODY is LYING!!

Driskill was terrible and got replaced. Jennings did not.
What happened in the Auburn game?
Didn't Jennings get replaced?!?!
quote:Is this English? Can you translate?
I know anyone that argues for 50plus pages that Jordan Jefferson is either stupid (most likely) or either mentally challenged (probably this also).
quote:Well, he was better than Lee.
The guy was bad. Jordan Jefferson was bad.

I am very optimistic about this season, and I am VERY excited to see the play of whichever QB is chosen by the staff.

Just stop. Les, like all coaches, wants one guy to step up and be the quarterback. And for at least one week, that guy was Harris.
Harris failed. So they went with the guy who would do the least damage to the team and they did alright.

he threw an INT.
and thats pretty remarkable he took a single snap, but then also on the following drive
3rd and 6 at UK 49 Brandon Harris run for 8 yds to the Kent 41 for a 1ST down
I was not aware LSU had two Brandon Harris(es)
Then again, I don't know about the secret playbook either.
quote:
"Last year I would be the first one to tell you I didn't know the ins and outs of things I needed to know," Harris said. "Now, going into my second spring, I'm so much more comfortable getting on the same page. I'm not having to have anybody tell me, the right tackle, I've called the wrong play or this and that. I'm more comfortable.
"I played a lot as a true freshman, which is unheard of at quarterback here. I'm looking forward to the spring, continuing to grow mentally and physically and just mentally as a person becoming a better leader."
quote:
Harris, too, learned some hard lessons in his rookie season, but said his timidity and a high ankle sprain he suffered against Auburn held him back. He said the timidity was on him for not speaking up and asking enough questions and that it would change this season as his relationship with offensive coordinator Cam Cameron has strengthened.
quote:
(After the Auburn game) "I dealt with a high ankle sprain that lingered throughout the season," Harris said. "I'm now 100 percent healthy after rehabbing the right way.
"I'm the only thing holding myself back, and held myself back last season Now I realize that."

Bunch of mentally challenged posters in this bitch.

I'm just glad to note that another QB thread had the usual JJ vs JL bullshite in it. That makes QB thread number 198 this year that followed the same pattern.
Keep up the good work tards.

quote:Absolutely true. Glad to see you finally admit it.
While Harris was hurt, it is completely understandable as to why he didn't play.
quote:And he did. He took snaps against Kentucky and Alabama. HOWEVER, he was too hurt to take more snaps.
His ankle was well enough to take some snaps,
quote:Uhhh . . . his performance in that game was the worst QB Rating of the 2014 season.
he should have been given more opportunities down the road. Like against Kentucky
quote:Well except that you admit:
like Arkansas and easily against notre dame. No excuses for him not getting more PT
quote:So maybe he was too hurt to get more playing time. Maybe he tweaked it against Kentucky or Alabama. Maybe the coaching staff wanted the damn thing to heal properly.

Then you know absolutely nothing about a high ankle sprain. It's worse than a regular ankle sprain & can linger for months.
quote:
In the high ankle sprain, there are several structures potentially damaged. These include ligaments that connect the tibia to the fibula known as the tibfib ligaments, as well as a tissue called the interosseous membrane. The severity of this injury often depends on how many of these structures are damaged. The recovery time frame varies from 8 weeks to 6 months and this is why the high ankle sprain is so dreaded.

You are also overlooking the fact that the injury limited an already inexperienced, true freshman from taking practice reps. You wanted to see what that would have looked like?

Freshman aren't allowed to talk to the media you frickin retard so of course he wasn't going to say anything until after the fact. I feel sorry for your family for having to deal with your stupidity on a daily basis.

I'll be happy when we win a another title. Plain and simple. We are not gonna do that playing to not lose and I don't GAF who the QB is.
Who the frick are you? No one gives a shite about what some mental midget from deep in the swamps wants or how you feel. frick your feelings.

He actually never took the snap in the Bama game. The team called timeout which allowed Jennings to come back in.

Then you know absolutely nothing

Yeah I know, I know we were in not lose worse mode and maybe our D can steal it mode. "Best chance to win" right

Put in the next guy even if he is not mentally prepared to lead the team?
Put in the next guy even if he has to ask the right tackle if the play call is right?
So, should everybody have played against Arkansas?
Should Kragthorpe have played against Arkansas?
