McFarland was adamant that Les Miles needs to start Danny Etling this Saturday against the Bulldogs overwise the "team will quit on him."

He also shared his thoughts on Brandon Harris' deleted tweet.

Brandon Harris's problem all along was that he doesn't know how to make provisions on a pass play. When the ball is snapped he keys in only on who the ball is supposed to go to based on the play design. Should that person be covered he either holds the ball and tries to scramble or he forces it to the player which ends up incomplete. Danny Etling actually works the pocket and checks it down or looks for another receiver in the event of his first option not being there. It was just time to try something new. Period.

McFarland is just a racist that doesn't want to see a black QB succeed. Sorry. Been on the PT board too long.

booger has won a Super Bowl maybe 2 and was all everything when he played at lsu, I think he has the rights to speak on what the players may do sometimes you respond differently to different people and sometimes you may lose respect for certain people and booger speaks 100 for the "ebonically" declined lol that's the truth.......im looking forward to many many more interviews from booger a true lsu legend. preach preach preach.

Guess BH6'S inability to hit the golf carts @ the MPA has come back to the roost...Glad our coaching staff has seen the light on his lack of skills as an elite Power 5 QB...

It is unfounded to claim the team would quit,,,,Etling should start because he has played better than Harris, and Etling deserves a leash as long as what Harris enjoyed vs Wisconsin.

Not really. Almost the entire team looked alive when etling came in

Scott is not only the smartest of the QBs he is also the most talented. If only you guys could see practice or have access to players, they would tell you the same. Miles unfortunately favor upperclassmen.

CLM "favors upperclassmen"? This tells me you don't know a thing about LSU football. Miles starts true freshmen and younger players constantly. In fact, I think 7 freshmen played last week. LSU, in fact, is well known as a team that allows young players to play sooner rather than later. Really, a clueless thing to say.

If Etling shows that he cant handle the SEC opponents then, in my opinion, we should give Lindsey Scott or McMillan a shot. I just think Harris is done with the program as a whole and wouldn't trust him.

I agree, if Etling can't get it done, move to Scott. Hopefully something will eventually work.

Booger is not a fan. Neither am I, but JSU is JSU. I think Etling should start, but will be really depressed if he doesn't look like he can handle SEC opponents. It will mean LSU has no QB at all, so GO DANNY!!!

Yes and BH couldn't produce against JSU.

If you can't complete a pass against air you won't be able to complete one against anybody
