He's trying to put a spin on it to protect his player.

Nothing wrong with it.

Anyone who thinks Harris starts over Jennings at any point in the next two seasons is a dumbass

First off, Miles said from the beginning of the season they would play both guys.
Second, Jennings was nicked against MSU which prompted Harris' last 4 minute explosion against an unsuspecting team. The coaches were right to say that Harris had earned a shot against AU, in view of what happened against MSU and NMSU. It didn't work out and Harris played ok in relief. I don't view anything that's happened as benching in the classic sense.

= spin

On Wednesday's SEC Coaches Teleconference, LSU head coach Les Miles was asked what quarterback Anthony Jennings learned from being benched before the Auburn game.

Miles responded by saying that Jennings was not necessarily benched but that It was more or less the evolution of the position.

Literal translation
It means he needed a fire under his arse and the "competition" was never a competition in reality. It also means GFY to anyone hoping to see Harris much more this year.

Miles definition
It means nothing. He's just talking in cryptic circles like he always does and is trying to make Jennings feel more comfortable going into Ole Miss.

Another enigmatic Milesism. Inscrutable.

It means that there was always an understanding that the QB situation was an ongoing competition...that both guys were going to play...and that it was always known that the better guy was going to play the most. The situation was never settled. It wasn't settled before the "benching" nor was it settled after the "benching".

That's one hell of an odd quarterback rotation he has.
