I don't approve of it because if thats true, why is he not the starting qb? Is he terrible with reads? Is he unable to handoff well?

Miles being Miles

I'd understand if he said best thrower, as in having the best arm. But best passer just seems like the coaches think he is more capable at quarterback than JJ

He may not be up to speed on reading defenses, or he may not have the playbook down enough yet.

This is just so unlike Les to say something like this.

It's usually, "All three men are capable and we feel good about the depth we have at quarterback."

I'm not saying he didn't say this, but that's a real breakthrough for him to speak in comparative terms like that.

I bet he said "frankly" in front of saying Mett was the best passer, seems to be his new thing

For some reason he's just not the same guy we see in front of cameras and giving interviews. Much more articulate & eloquent when he speaks in front of an audience. As has been said, very entertaining.

Miles seems much more comfortable in his skin, at least in a public forum. He used to cringe when someone used the term "Mad Hatter" in his presence, now its like he is embracing his quirky self.

I think he has been and will continue to be great for LSU.

There's a ton more to playing QB than just passing the ball.
