It seems to me that Harris is in the dog house. That better?

Is this doghouse reserved for people that don't perform very well, or maybe have been assessed at less than the best of their position?

Seems that every time this doghouse is mentioned, hindsight proves the staff was accurate in their assessment.

I take offense to Miles being called STUBBORN!!! Dumb Maybe, Stupid Maybe, What else can u say about a man in 2007, LAST game of the year and gets the opponent and there State SO FIRED UP by calling them AR-Kansas and precedes to fire the WRONG TEAM UP and got his butt whipped that in all reality should have cost us the National Championship opportunity. DUMB

I'm sure the fact that Arkansas has three future NFL RBs on their roster and LSU was limping into the season finale had nothing to do with it.

Going way out on a limb but unless Harris was way oversold coming out of high school I expect him to be the starting QB against McNeese.




I do not care who starts, but they should both get snaps with the #1's vs McNeese. Let Harris play enough in the OOC games that he is calm and poised vs Cowbelle.

Miles changed starting QBs 2 times in 2014, but yet some cling to this false agenda that LM is unreasonably stubborn.

Some saw a love affair with JJ, but the only reason JJ started in 08 was cause Lee got hurt and JJ came back 4 games into 2011 but failed to start for 5 more games.

Some claim Miles doesn't want to throw the ball, but the to most productive passing yrs in the last 15 yrs came in 06 and 2013...both under Miles.

I wonder sometimes what LSU football some are watching.

doghouse


Harris' stats after the Auburn game:

Fla: DNP
UK: Rush 1-8, Pass 0-1, 1 INT
OM: DNP
AL: 1-7
AR: DNP
AM: DNP
ND: DNP

I would say that is the definition of dog house.

You are talking about the FANTASY league, right? Because Miles has said, verbally, that he is stubborn, and his actions prove it. But your rose colored glasses make it hard to see reality.

I think he is stubborn, but not because of the Lee JJ thing. People are using 2 qbs to support their claim when he's had 6 other qbs start for him.

Not playing because you shouldn't be playing isn't the same thing as not playing because the coach is sore with you.

i think it is crazy that people forgot that Les benched Jennings.

They act like it was some conspiracy theory to set Harris up to fail.


They have a severe want for Harris to excel. The CLM haters refuse to believe it.

So, was Kragthorpe in the doghouse as well? Why wasn't Williams getting more carries? All in the Doghouse!!


Only 1 QB at a time, that's a rule I believe?

So he knew the offense enough to start on the road in one of the hardest SEC venues, but not enough to warrant some playing time when your other QB is struggling really bad?

No. He showed the coaches that he had potential to be a 250 yard QB, and they threw shite at a wall to see what would stick.
