Very excited about the start of a new season! Anxious to see how the highly anticipated Freshman class will look and curious to see how and who will get the most opportunities on the field, particularly early in the season. Surely, it’ll come down to the production and talent on the practice field, but also who Les trusts the most. Personally, I think it’ll be fun to watch / observe how he manages certain situations, considering how deep and talented this Freshmen class is. Of course, L. Fournette will play (that's a no brainer)- I’m talking about WR's, DB's, etc. I think it comes down to the players who put in the most time to study / learn the playbook, both at home and at practice. I've heard good things about Harris, as well as all the other Freshman. It seems he is passionate about the game and is willing to learn and improve. He also appears to be a very positive person and understands mistakes happen and seems to have a good outlook on those sorts of things. It ‘s just every year I find myself worrying about the QB position, as I’m sure a lot of you do. I just love seeing when our team has a solid passing game and can air it out with confidence and ease. I just hope we don't have to stress and harp on the QB position week-to-week and all yearlong. Nonetheless, I’m staying optimistic. I’m passionate and realize it will always be interesting when it comes to LSU TIGER Football!! Excited and looking forward to the start of a new season!!

Thoughts: We will dominate..
Concerns: For the safety and well being of those we face after we dominate them in every facet of the game.

So much potential in this team, should be fun to watch. Definitely capable of making a playoff run if it all comes together. Can't wait!

Biggest Concern -- Les's handling of the QB's.

He ran off all our other options, Drop back QB's, and now is stuck with 2 very Green Running-pass option QB's.

Although I like both Jennings and Harris, Its a Concern.

Not trying to be negative, but I can only think back to JJ and how we struggled (thank goodness our defense was so dominate)

Jj, Harris and Jennings are not running qbs. They just happen to be able to move faster than Mett. So we ran off rivers and rettig who obviously couldn't beat out a true freshman, so yeah we should have just gone with those guys. Because they don't resemble Jefferson. You should keep your post count at 7.

Thoughts: that is a giant wall of text.
Concerns: doesn't anyone know how to use paragraphs anymore?

I will never understand why a person takes time to tell someone they didnt read something. Rude and makes you seem like an ignoramus.

Until I see competent play by our quarterback and domination by our massive offensive line, I will withhold judgement on this years team.

After watching the replay of LSU and Oregon State from 2004, I'm somewhat concerned that we may have a similar situation at quarterback as was the case in 2004. Hope these guys prove me wrong.
