re: Why didn't Jordan Jefferson play earlier in the season?

I do not believe Jefferson should have started at the beginning of the season, but the question was why didn't he play? The problem was he got almost no work at all versus North Texas, App. State, and Tulane (the worst decision was this game). Whether Jefferson was 100% ready was a luxury LSU could not afford this year. You had a QB (Hatch) that basicly all he does is run, in the SEC this is asking to lose your QB which is what happened. Then knowing Lee is a stationary target (and could get hurt as well which is what happened), after Hatch gets hurt you give Jefferson no valuable work in the Tulane game. I believe the coaches could have had a simple package of 6-10 plays (not just hand-offs) for Jefferson even versus Tulane. This is when I heard the most complaints. Not playing him versus Tulane was a missed opportunity. No one can deny this

jefferson shouldnt have started early this season, but he should have gotten at least a few snaps a game.
