Disagree............Les Miles proved the rant wrong.......Harris is not ready........He couldn't handle a snap on 1st drive, looked wide eyed........I prefer him coming off the bench until proven otherwise.

So your QB of the future will only get to play in Mop up duty and not throw much at that. Thats the history of "bringing a QB along at LSU" under miles.

Harris got benched vs Auburn....

Jennings got benched vs fricking New Mexico St..... NEW MEXICO ST.

You start Harris and let him take his lumps and grow / learn for the future. Jennings does NOT give us a better chance of winning if he was at QB spot. If we had someone clearly better, then I would say sit Harris. But we don't. He's a young kid loaded with talent, just needs to gain experience and reps vs good teams and he will grow and be a great QB for us.

No point in playing Jennings over Harris.

The problem is IMO, the defense isn't good enough to keep us in the game this season and the O-Line isn't good enough to support a conservative run-centered scheme. Jennings has great poise and comfort in the pocket but huge lack of consistency throwing. Jennings could be a good ball manager QB if our Oline was better, but.

Harris has the ability to make the throws consistently but got very rattled in his first start under very tough circumstances. So I think Harris is our only hope based in the factors above, ie, Harris' issues are fixable, Jennings not so much.

I agree that we start

:rimshot:

Mr BH6...he has the most upside...I think if clm would actually put him into a comfortable offense from the 1st play, his game at au might have been better...but playing under center is not what he does...he needs to learn that, but let's get to a comfortable place first...when he was shining against nmsu, he was not under center...the offense was spread out in at lest 3 wr sets and that opened up running lanes for our 4 horsemen...
