Why can't we play him at QB? He's got to be better than JJ. I read last year somewhere that it was because he didn't know the playbook well enough. This can't still be the case

Spencer Ware should be QB

Sam Gibson should be QB

Rueben Randle should be QB

ALL BEFORE SHEP

Because he is not a passer, despite what people think….His future is at wide receiver…I saw him play many times here in Texas and his highlight reels with a few passes leaves out a lot of bad ones. He lacks accuracy and there is a lot off wobble in his passes.

Perhaps because Les Miles hates LSU and doesn't want the team to win so he can be fired and go to Michigan? I heard this at a bar this week.

Because although he is an incredible playmaker he would be even worse than JJ at getting the ball to the other playmakers like TT or RR.

deosn't matter, Crowton or Miles hamstrings Jordan with idiotic playcalling, just toss the ball down the field

It'll be funny when RR stays at Michigan precisely because he doesn't have his star QB AT WR

Look what Denard Robinson at Michigan is doing. Shep could have probably have done the same thing, but not with Crowton though.

MI does NOT want him. Neither does any other team.
Les is ours forever.

Because our coaches are scared to change our offense to what it would need to be for him to be a successful qb. It would put more pressure on the o line and if the o line couldn't handle the switch that would make them look worse and would put miles job in jeopardy even more than it is.

If miles leaves the offense as is, then he has crowton who's in his last year of his contract to blame. Changing an offense in the middle of the season would call for hc approval and is a big statement of fail.

That being said our coaches should have known where our offense was after last season and started making changes to the offense for rs. I know this kid would have given us the best chance to win with a capable coaching staff this year

This, all of you internet recruiters just saw highlights of his best passes. I saw him on local TV several times and was not a polished passer. He made plays with his feet mostly. And it's high school, people always put to much on stats from high school. The difference between high school and college is greater than college and pro.
