re: The Development of one Brandon Harris

He's a freshman. He knows the playbook backwards and forwards. What he doesn't get is how to translate that to performance without having to think about it when the monsters are charging in his face. We had HORRIFIC blocking during the Auburn game. Les had visions of 2008 Jarret Lee Alabama game PTSD and this is the evidence that he learned a lesson from that. Lee was NEVER able to play Alabama again without shitting the bed. This year was a rebuilding year. He let him sit and got the backup a lot of reps in the hope he'd develop. Considering the strength of the West this year anybody that thought we'd take it with all the new kids as starters needs to pull their heads out of their asses.

Look, just think fondly on that last couple of minutes in the Miss State game and dream of next year. It's going to be ok as long as Harris has done the work, doesn't do anymore unsanctioned press interviews like he did this year with Tim Fletcher, and doesn't piss himself once it starts getting real next year.

We'll be fine.
