Les says he likes dual threat QB's, but what he really wants is a game manager.

He wants a boring, obedient footsoldier who follows orders. He wants a Craig Krenzel. He wants a Jay Barker. He wants an AJ McCarron with feet. He cannot deprogram his mind to accept any offensive strategy other than power running game, QB under center, run if the first read is not there, limit mistakes, punt for field position.

He will never, ever, EVER give a physically gifted quarterback, no matter how highly recruited, the keys to the offense. Brandon Harris has realized this, and is probably entertaining a transfer.

If Harris wants to play at LSU he needs to ignore the outside noise and focus on this team. In a perfect situation, he would have red-shirted. Harris has the right to believe he is the better QB, but he needs to be a better teammate. Seeking outside advice from Deion Sanders is not helping his case with Cam and Les.

Les Miles runs an offensive system that maybe 1% of high school kids have ever run in their entire lives.

Miles just needs to switch to the option that Georgia Tech runs if he has no desire to allow the QB to throw the ball. It's like buying a drill and never pre-drilling holes. He just chooses to tighten screws.

I bet there is tension in the locker room with Harris and Jennings. Maybe the staff doesn't see Harris as a supporter of Jennings. Maybe Harris is the better QB, but he has to be mature about the situation.
