Jennings is the new Jefferson. Harris will never see the field unless Miles starts 0-4.

I just want to point out that you can rearrange the letters in "Posifan" to get "Fap Nois", which seems appropriate.

Tell us more about how you're upset that Miles hasn't seen Harris practice this summer.

Wrong. Maybe some on TD and your other 14 year old friends are convinced of this. You are an absolute IDIOT if you think Miles will not start whoever gives LSU the best chance to win.

Right, because most fans watch the practices, hang around the players and see their progression. Sheesh.

quote:

Because Miles doesn't start who you think he should? Pretty sure Miles doesn't care at all what you or I think about his credibility.

quote:

Yeah, he just wants to lose.

Fan morale is in decline? Do you even follow LSU football? Our recruiting classes are amazing. There is a ton of expectation surrounding this team. The press has us at least in the top 15 or better. They believe in LSU more than fans like you do.

Newsflash! He does! Do you think this highly successful group of coaches isn't going to start the best player. Wow!

CLM is a good coach that just ran into bad luck with QBs. Zach Lee chose baseball over football.Ryan Perriloux was an uber recruit who cost himself a shot because of immaturity. I think Miles will make the right choice against McNeese.

WHY do you need Season Tickets? Don't understand the obsession for having ST's, unless it's strictly a "Status" thing.

You can walk right up to Tiger Stadium and buy all the tickets you want in the lower bowl for way under Face.

OOC games for 5-10 bucks. SEC a little more but still way under Face.

The ONLY game that it's even remotely hard to find a ticket to is the Alabama game every other year. We paid 50 bucks for our 100 buck Bama tickets in 2014 20 minutes before kickoff.

No ST's. No problem. We're IN the stadium with good seats regardless and we don't have to bend over in compliant servitude to the LSUAD and TAF with their Fees, Priority Points and Philanthropic Ranking BS...................

The issue is that CLM probably isn't listening to his OC. But you would think that if BH is as talented and the rant says he is, that he would be able to beat out AJ for the job...... being he's been on vacation this summer.

BLUF, nobody here on the rant has any inside information on who starts and why; there are no coaching staff members on here; so let's just all relax and hope for a minimum 10 win season.

Most fans aren't in practice. And j don't think you know what credibility means.

You mean with something like a press conference in which he explains that the QB battle has not yet been decided?

Funny how each year the wait list for season tickets gets longer.

Part of the game is fan commentary and critique- we just have more to comment about and more to critique

Link? I think this is Alleva-speak. I couldn't ever sell my extra season tickets, even offering to eat most or all of the TAF tax, and there are bookoo ST for sale on TD and elsewhere. I ditched my 4 this year and will follow the plan stated above. I got tired of my buddy siting in sideline seats for $20-30/game while I sat above him in seats I paid thousands to TAF for the privilege of buying. And that way, if JJ II starts wracking up those 95 yd games, I won't feel compelled to sit through the frustration all season.

What is clearly apparent is that this thread is probably not going as you expected. Have a down vote.

If your livelihood depended on a bunch of 18 to 22 year olds, would you play someone at guarterback that you know does not give you the best chance of success? Miles may be hard headed and old school but I can't believe he would play AJ if he actually believed Harris was better. Unless you are at every practice and know the work ethic, character, football savy etc., how can anyone other than a coach know who is better? AJ may not be a good D1 quarterback but that is another issue Miles has about recruiting. I have to believe there is more to this equation than is public. That being said, I also don't understand what the hell happened in the National Championship Game. I am not defending Miles on other issues. The fact that we don't have a great D1 QB is to laid at Miles feet only. Just saying.
