I don't care if J. Lee has 1,020 plays in his playbook & in three years has practiced them over and over. He can't execute hardly any of them. As far as your cheap-shot on RS, we saw last night that Lee screws that up all by himself.

Also, does Shepard even need 20 plays to excel and give that offense the boost and spark it needs so badly? I'll save you the trouble: NO!

I don't know you or have any reason at all to direct this to you, but having attended every LSU game except two the past 2 seasons, there's a considerable racial bias against JJ (& now JJ and RS) with too many of our fans, and it's digusting. I can say of all the other SEC, Big-12 and Big-10 schools I've covered over the years, LSU is near the bottom when it comes to the using the "race-card." (And yes, the door swings both ways.)

That old stereotype still exists (and not just at LSU) when it comes to African-Americans playing QB. It's that dirty little secret we don't want to admit that still exists, and our players know it, hate it but will never talk about it on the record. They have to roll with it, and worse, many are just used to it.

Why does someone have to bring race up anytime a black QB is criticized?

How is stating a fact a cheap shot??

You said you go to every game, then how in the world do you NOT see how many times in the limited time Shep plays, him being absolutely clueless about where to lineup???

Come on man.

Not sure what relevance this has since Shep doesn't play QB for LSU.
