Who actually made the call to bring in Etling when we did?

Was this Cam's call or Les'?

Would love to know what Les told Harris when he ran to sidelines after his last play of the night.

It's not hard to figure out what he told him at halftime

"You're still my guy and I will see to it that you are on the field securing victory next week"

don't know the exact verbiage, but the gist of it was surely meant to keep him from losing his shite. we almost always need a second quarterback over the duration of a season, and when that time comes, Harris needs to be able to step in and take control.

Harris was told before the game that he was on a short leash and if he didn't produce he would be pulled. Wasn't a last minute decision. Per Les Miles

This decision is always the HC's final call. When Harris came off the field, I think Les told him - Harris reacted, Les patted him and said, "Relax."

Why wasn't he already on a short leash. He should've been pulled at halftime last week. Less lost that game and didn't have to. If I knew that I was about to be fired in disgrace I would pull out all of the stops to try to win. That just shows how disconnected from reality he really is. Fire Less Miles.

Who gives a shite who decided it? Just be glad it happened before we have another "L".

I have no clue. The ESPNU commentators were talking about during the JSU pregame. It was public info.

Dupre called for DE - overheard saying he was tired having to reach for BH's sky high passes.

Really? You heard that?
When did he say it?
During the game? When
During practice? When?

Come on man you have serious information here share it.
