I got to go to two fall practices (that were closed) before the Wisc game.

You could see what Cam was trying to do with timing routes and slants, mostly stuff under 15 yards trying to get the ball to playmakers. Neither QB could connect, it was hard to watch.

The next practice they spent most of the time trying to throw to the RBs, same result. Neither QB could deliver the ball to a back in motion.

There is a reason teams line up to play the run, there just isn't any appreciable risk to play the pass against us. I think it will be better this year but it will be 2016 before we are a threat to consistently pass. Just my opinion.

I'm sure Jennings has improved just like Miles would claim Jefferson did every year.

I'm willing to go on record as saying that Harris will come into the opener within the first four possessions to lead the offense.



We are playing a cupcake... Surely AJ can lead us to at least 1 td within the 1st 4 possesions....Right???? BTW it won't matter how AJ plays.. and no matter the score.. Miles will keep him in their until late 3rd quarter.........

OK. Let's just assume that for the sake of argument, this is absolute Gospel. No real separation between the two.

Mmkay. Anyone wanna take bets on how fricking bad AJ will have to play to find the bench? This is the strange part to me. If your starter is bad and you're telling us that in practice, you don't see much separation, then WTF over? Give the other guy a shot. And hey, the SAME shot you give the fricker who stank for 13 games!!!


Exacty!!!! You mean to tell me Miles will hitch his wagon to the guy who can barely beat out a kid he has 1 year more experience than and 10 times as much playing time than?

What will the Harris fan boys do?


Sounds like someone loved what that saw from AJ last year.
His eye for talent is so far beyond that of every other football observer in the country. While others only saw the bad numbers and losses with AJ, he saw something else. What? I do not know as I am a mere mortal, unlike him.

I love threads like these. These comments and quotes you guys bring up are pointless. In the end, we all know Jennings will be the starter, and Harris will sit and rot on the bench all year. And as a result we'll have another 8-4, 7-5 season again. Sooner y'all realize that, the better things will be.

Miles not playing freshman, Jordan Jefferson sucked his entire career,there was a fight on 1/9 over the qb position, our offense is simple, Shep wouldve won a Heisman any where else.

This is of NO surprise.. The main difference between Miles and Saban is that Nick utilizes the talent he recruits, while Les sits his on the bench. Les will have another season, playing second fiddle to Nick. Get ready for another Capitol One Bowl...

Book marked to review at the end of next season. I hope you are right, and it is a stupid comment. But I remember how CLM was attached to JJ

So attached that he let him rot on the bench for four weeks after his suspension was up?

If the competition is as close as it seems, the battle may go into the beginning of the season which may not necessarily be a bad thing this year. The beginning of this season sets up nicely for both quarterbacks to show what they can do on the field without it having a negative effect in the loss column.


How do you figure that?

If that is true, why not sign a JC or seek a QB Xfer.
