How does CLM play a QB who does not know the plays, does not put in the time in the film room to make himself a better player, who is "lazy" and using a word to keep it polite, is "immature"? This has been stated more than a few times by a wide variety of sources for it not to be factual/the reasons for not giving him playing time. In the Auburn game he was calling out plays from his h.school days. From most "inside" accounts, the players did not trust him. That being the case, how is he supposed to be a leader?

This x 1000.

Jennings is not a great QB but he is a good kid by all accounts, and he busts his arse day in and out to do the best he can. Harris is a good kid too from what I gather, but he doesn't put in the time. He may have the physical gifts that Jennings doesn't, but he doesn't have the work ethic. It's a shame you couldn't combine the two -- then everyone would have what they want.

For now, we all have to wait and hope that Harris matures into what we all want him to be. He has a real chance to be a national star given his physical skills and the talent surrounding him. But he can't just ride the skills - he has to put in the time to review the film and learn the playbook.
