re: What do some of you not understand about most of us wanting Harris to start?

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 why not? We were talking about the most outstanding players in all of football, and the point was simply that they got zero snaps as freshmen, and progressed pretty damn well. Harris doesn't have to have snaps this year to be good next year. This proves exactly that.

And? They do the same thing with Jennings

Nearly every play? No, they do not. I haven't counted, but I'd bet its 3-1 Harris vs Jennings that they do this for.

Then it's safe to assume he started working harder.

Why? He hadn't apparently done it by 11/4 in the past 8 months, but all of a sudden he did? And after a week and a half, even if he did, he should be rewarded?

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.

I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you here. But the problem is that one of the worst performances I have ever seen at QB was against Auburn. If he goes out and tanks again, what does that do for him? Maybe he's just really not ready, for a bunch of reasons that have nothing to do with talent or play, and it is the best for this team and for him to start anew in 2015. I don't recall a person last year on here complaining that Mett was done after last year so we should bench him and start Jennings to get the work to be better this year. In essence, we all hope that the situations are similar, except AJ won't be graduating.
