JJ needs to be remembered for ONE THING, breaking down the security gates at Tyrann Mathieu's apartment complex, busting past the security guard, who called the police and resulted in TM7's arrest, along with JJ and 2 other former players who had their weed paraphernalia set up in TM7's apartment - with friends like that, who needs enemies?

quote:Yeah, no chance, too circumspect and overtly biased and unbalanced with no details that correlate with facts.
Attended the scrimmage on Saturday and Harris really struggled out there. He missed wide open receivers, looked very timid in the pocket, and exhibited very poor body language. The pick that he threw in the red zone was horrible. People can blame Miles all they want, but Harris has been his own worst enemy.
Jennings fumbled a shotgun snap and that Sione picked up and ran back for a TD, only turnover reported.
Immediately after the scrimmage Miles said it was the "offense's best day", that both of the "2nd year" QBs had developed and picked up the "nuances of the game", making adjustments at the line and calling out blitz packages to the RBs (same thing LF7 said), that it was a competition without separation, and awarded no QB of the Day honors. Harris' upbeat twitter post after the scrimmage was to remind everyone of the next and last scrimmage, the Spring Game. He ran away with it last year, 4 months out of HS: 4 TDs: 3 TDs passing, 1 rushing, top rusher. AJ, two pick six INTs and one passing TD.

This thread is allowed to continue and the OPs post history is blocked from view.
...first thing I noticed as soon as it was posted. This generated 10 pages of mostly off-topic thread hijacking by the usual suspects, made-up QB posts bashing Harris and trying to raise the bar for AJ, the junior, who has improved his running, but is yet to show improved arm talent, ranked last in the SEC and bottom of FBS.
ESPN says Harris is the best LA QB since RP, Named the Louisiana 2013 Class 5A All-State quarterback: Completed 178-of-329 passes for 3,172 yards with 34 touchdowns and 14 interceptions and rushed for 1,048 yards and 15 touchdowns as a senior = LSU 2013 O stats for Mett and Hill. Led Parkway to a 14-1 record and an appearance in the 2013 Class 5A state championship game. He was a 5-star junior, #37 overall, and #1 QB prior to committing early to LSU, which ended his media ratings readership value, and that was prior to his record setting senior year. Huge hands, wrist speed that has been talked about for years, ranked by Whitfield as having the strongest NFL arm he has seen in years. Yes he also threw a 92 mph fastball in HS, 60 mph football. He played football all his life, and was throwing so hard in 9th grade he was injuring the receiver's hands. Being as good or better than Winston, he was the best in Whitfield's elite Shark class which included Petty and Golson. Miles/Cam committed to developing AJ or BH as an elite passer, and have 12 of the best WRs, and a reported goal of 70% completion (Link: does anyone have the link to him saying 70%?), pace, and a balanced run/pass attack with DTQBs, a balanced spread attack with 3+WRs, putting players in space, pace, checkdowns to RBs, and to TEs who can and have caught multiple passes.
The poster did not attend the scrimmage. This is made up player bashing. No pick was reported by anyone, yet "OP analyist" manufactures a terrible pick thrown to an unidentified player, talks shite about Harris that is a complete contradiction of his faith/family/football personal character, personality, interviews, optimism, confidence, strength, and composure on and off the field. He stood up for Jennings after he was booed. The only pick we have "seen" is the video of AJ throwing into double coverage, a less than 35 yd floater to Dural that died 10 yds short, and that was attributed in the press to Harris. Harris, prior to this last scrimmage before the Spring Game had no Ints or turnovers.
The D has been practicing at pace without substitution for HUNH teams we will face most of the year, so by default the O is running faster. This is exactly what Kiffin did to both convert to HUNH offense to tire defenses, "dropped a brick on the accelerator", and forced the D to practice without substitution, a change Chavis and Miles were implementing. After 5 games Saban said ALA had faced only HUNH teams and his defense was prepared and conditioned physically and mentally to make quick adjustments without substitution. Miles has noted pace has helped the O.

its one play man...come on ...you cant make an assessment off one play from each of the qbs...so if AJ threw one pick and 5 tds vs harris throwing one td and no picks you but essentially all you know and see are AJs one pick and Harris one TD...you dont know what has happened in the rest of the scrimmage

We get it, Harris has the stronger arm and better athleticism. Unless you truly think Les/Cam have decided, "screw the good QB, why would we want to put the better option in there?", clearly he hasn't shown much in practice compared to Jennings.
You conspiracy theorists are a joke.

Even though these Touchdowns are "scripted", I don't think you can take too much away from them. the tight windows comment is good to hear, and the checks at the line of scrimmage is good to hear.
Bottom line, anything is better than what we had last year, which was another Miles clusterfrick QB display. There's nowhere to go but up, so any progress is going to look better than last year.
Hell, if we can just complete about 10 forward passes a game, let LF run all over the place, and play some consistent defense in the final 5 minutes of regulation, we should win about 10 games and be all happy about another 10 win season with no championships for another year.

This affinity you seem to have for a true So. QB who has started one time for LSU with very poor success is beginning to take on delusional aspects.
I really don't understand the need some seem to have for putting one LSU QB on their shoulders in admiration while knocking another LSU QB to the ground and stepping all over him.
I don't give a flying flip who starts in Sept. At this time I am only hoping that both of our gets are improving from last yr. which is normally the case with players talented enough to be at LSU.

Miles sees progress little separation at QB
Monday 3/31: Miles sees Progress, Little Separation At QB: Asked Monday whether the starting job is still up for grabs, Miles replied, "Very much."
There were 6 TDs in the last scrimmage, AJ had 2. You do the math. There was one To/fumble by AJ returned for a TD.
Miles and Cam 3/30: Monday
If you win the explosiveness battle (using PPP), you win 86 percent of the time.
3.15 ppm for Harris in 9 of 11 possessions for 63 pts in 20 minutes vs Miss State and NMSU
1.66 ppm for Oregon (highest in nation) .77 ppm on season for LSU = 95th of 128
.38 ppm SMU lowest in nation at 128, Vanderbilt lowest in SEC at .48 ppm 126th
.21 ppm for LSU vs Ole Miss, ALA, and ARK
.34 ppm last four reg season games
.53 ppm vs A&M = 123rd in nation) (A&M 17 pts in 18.5 min = .91 ppm)
If you win the efficency battle (using Success Rate), you win 83 percent of the time.
(prior to the Auburn Game
If you win the drive-finishing battle (using points per trip inside the 40), you win 75 percent of the time.
If you win the field position battle (using average starting field position), you win 72 percent of the time.
If you win the turnover battle (using turnover margin), you win 73 percent of the time.

Miles and Cam 3/30: Monday
quote:
The quarterbacks "got over a hurdle" in Saturday's scrimmage by combining for six touchdown passes, many through extremely tight windows. It was the best scrimmage showing since former Tigers quarterback Zach Mettenberger fired five consecutive touchdowns in a 2012 workout.
quote:
The same two candidates, junior Anthony Jennings and sophomore Brandon Harris, are competing for the second consecutive spring, but 10 practices and two scrimmages haven't produced clarity. Asked Monday whether the starting job is still up for grabs, Miles replied, "Very much." LSU practices twice this week before spring break, then twice more before the April 18 spring game.
quote:
"I would like to have already made the decision because that would mean I’ve got Brett Favre or Tim Tebow or somebody like that," Miles told ESPN.com, "but it takes some time for those guys to grow up. We’re going to allow that to happen. "I'm not necessarily pleased with the progress thus far, but I do recognize that there’s some real progress being made."

After the bowl game: “I think that Brandon Harris will absolutely compete for the job, and I’m not discounting Anthony Jennings, just not going to do it,” Miles said, “but Brandon Harris is faster, throws the ball harder and really runs hard. Some fundamental things that he will improve on, and he’s ready to do so.”

After seeing them both play I think most people agree one looks a lot better than the other. I understand it. All AJ has to do to stop being stepped on is have a good game. Key word "GAME," not "practice." Hope to see it.

I don't either dude.
I've seen enough football to know that the backup QB is rarely as good as he looks when he comes into a game in progress and lights it up. Yet that's what Harris advocates point to as the main reason he should start.
Let's just let it all play out. I too couldn't care less who actually ends up winning the job as long as they give LSU the best chance to win. And I don't pretend to know who that guy is.

I get it. Harris showed flashes of hi potential in a couple relief roles. The coaches saw it as well. Hence, his true Fr. start not cause of injury, but cause of his performance and Jennings lack of.
I also saw his performance in that start and found out bout his injury.

have a good game
Jennings had "good" games for a true So. Not great or outstanding or AA type games but certainly he played well enough in some to seen as a "good game".
