re: How does an "elite" program get itself into a 4 year JJ/JL mess?

but its crazy to think the #1 dual threat QB couldnt go elsewhere and get a shot at QB. He wasnt rated as a WR, but as a QB.

When RS came to LSU, he suddenly lost all of his abilities at QB, amazing. Bottom line he was given a raw deal, probably given promises that weren't kept (we will give you a shot at QB), and then amazingly 'convinced' that he would make a good WR after his 2nd year in college (meanwhile, he had never played WR in his life, couldn't run a route, and didn't have good hands).

RS is another victim of Les Miles poor planning, foresight, and poor player development. Even if he did have some shortcomings at QB which is conceivable as a young player, why not get him some development from a quality coach, instead of the idiot Crowton who wouldn't even come down on the field to coach the players?
