I'll be sure to let him know.

Got news for you there is no way in hell that Harris sticks it out at LSU if Jennings is the starting QB next year. The kid has way too much talent to stick around for one year of playing time. Not going to happen. If he is not named the starter after spring look for him to leave.

Well maybe you should go over to his house and let him know that. I agree BTW...just have a hard time believing that it will happen. AJ is a nice back-up QB for this team but I just don't see him being able to complete 60%+ of his passes.

should CLM have kept BH in throughout the Auburn game?

I swear.. you arm chair quarterbacks and your damn hindsight. the season is not over. It would be much worse if there are losses to Ark and jizzjar-U.

Chill out and wait to make this an offseason thread

Harris himself admitted on twitter that he hasn't put in the hardwork needed to be the starter. Why should miles reward him with the job?

Obviously you missed the Jordan Jefferson years. Welcome to the LSU fan base, though.

And, I seem to remember that Harris did have a shot against Aubie. He struggled just as bad has AJ has against good competition.

Pre season goals, with the exception of a bowl game (insert 2nd tier bowl at best here) are history. Time to make the switch with someone who is generally considered to have a lot more upside than Jennings. I understand why Miles has played Jennings to this point but the season is basically over now and he should , at a minimum, get the guy some playing time. But he wont..

I'd rather not play Harris this weekend. It will be freezing,maybe snowing. No need and screw with his confidence any more than needed. Let him start against A&M. We should light up their defense and it would give him some confidence.

My concern is that Miles will stick with AJ (like he stuck with Welter -clearly longer than he needed to)
Was with you until this.....

I can agree with majority of what u have posted. I can agree that miles needs to start splitting reps between both qbs, but only in the way that it helps Harris get game experience. I've seen many young qbs start this year if not play in a few games and if sitting him on the bench I'd going to help him. He might as well just wait until spring training. It's hard to see him on the sideline waiting to redeem himself and also show his teammates what he is capable of. Give the guy a chance and not late in the 4th quarter.

My opinion of the QB situation is this. Harris has already lost his redshirt, we have 3 games left, including a bowl game. I don't see a downside in Harris playing significant time against 3 Power 5 teams to end the season.
