re: Which QB do you think should start from this point on ?

yeah dude, redshirts don't study the playbook.

got it.

do you even know who recruited lee?

Yes Jimbo, any more stupid questions?

An obvious redshirt runs the scout team, thats his job. Whether he is in tune with the playbook is up to the individual coaching staff or not, whether the expect him to see playing time or not.

I don't really care either way because neither are perfect. Lee looked like total shite last year, but last night, against ULL, Jefferson didn't look too great. Sure, we crushed them, but if that was an SEC defense, there's a pick 6 or two.

None of them look all-world. Remember, Lee looked solid at the outset too.

P.S. - The Slacker fellow is right. Redshirts study opponents a ton more than their own playbook.

I am sorry if you do not understand how a redshirt works.

I never said they do not get to look at playbook. I stated that during the week they learn the opposing teams plays to run them in practice. They are in each of their respective unit meetings, during fall practice/spring practice they get too look and work plays out of playbook. Once the season starts however they are busy with other things than learning the playbook.
Practice players have a lot of responsibility to do during the week to help prepare the team. They are much like an extra coach as they watch game film, pick up nuances of opposing teams/players, write down notes from what they say, and then implement it in practice.
I am glad to see you are good at attempting to put words in the mouth of other posters.

I'm not sure how Coach Miles runs his program but I know for a fact that some coaches don't give red-shirt freshman the playbook until their red-shirt season is over. Their job is to mimic the opponent and they don't want them distracted from their job. It's all part of that team concept that some around here don't quite understand.

I know Saban gave his redshirt players smaller version of the playbook to understand. That way in case players were sick/injured/etc and they needed an extra body someone would be prepared.

Once the season actually began though the players had a list of things they had to do to get ready for the week. They had coaches they had to meet with every day to discuss what they watched, noticed, etc. Everyone had a notebook and they had to fill it out with notes of whoever LSU was to play the week before.
