What do you not understand about some of us saying Harris needs to progress before starting again? The past two Heisman trophy winners did not a play one down of college football their freshman years, and still won the trophy the next, thus making your point about the much needed game experience moot.

What do y'all not understand about seeing how nearly every snap Harris has done has been with the play coming in from the sideline at the line, illustrating there is some disconnect there?

What do you not understand about not wanting to put a true freshman in the game to possibly wreck his confidence, irreparably for the coming year?

What do you not understand about some of us saying the coaches may not be playing him due to work ethic, and trying to build him into a better player for next year? By the way, this is Harris' tweet from a couple weeks back, along with a picture of him in a headset following Les on the sideline...

"@bharrisqb1: My thoughts have been MAJOR.. But my work ethic has been average. Won't see my results that way. Time to go harder."

What y'all don't understand, surely, is that we ALL think he will be the better choice for this team. We ALL understand Jennings hasn't gotten it done. But it doesn't mean that the best thing for this team, for Harris, for the years to come is to start Harris or even play him significantly over the next couple games, despite nearly all of us wanting to see it.

Ummm they were playing behind 1st round draft picks at QB. Unless you think AJ is a 1st round pick, this doesn't hold up to well.

And? They do the same thing with Jennings

That it's a bullshite excuse for the weak.

Then it's safe to assume he started working harder. Yet he still didn't get in against Arkansas amidst the abortion Jennings performed.

What pressure does he have? He would be replacing a QB that has performed worse than just about every QB in LSU history, at least for the last 25 years. Will also let the rest of the O that they have a coach willing to give them a fighting chance to perform at a high level.
