re: Is Miles really to be blamed for the QB situation at LSU?

During this same time span, I wonder how many Louisiana Tech QB's have gone pro? I'm telling ya that mid major QB's wind up better ones because they are at mid- majors. Their teams do not have the talent to be competitive running the football; hence, they air it out. They then lose a few games; and although the QB is better off the team is worse off

What they hell are you talking about? Who gives a hot shite about mid majors and NFL? Look at UGA and Bama for instance. Bama runs a system where every starter is at the very least a game manager. Then you have guys like McCarron who average 9 yards per attempt and put up 30 TDs and Blake Sims who throws for 3400 yards and 28 TDs while also running very effectively. UGA was QB heaven for Richt's tenure. David Greene, DJ Shockley, Matthew Stafford, Aaron Murray, Hutson Mason, crazy.

Why can't LSU run successful pro style offenses like they do? Hell even Arkansas had Mallet and Wilson and then Brandon Allen the last two years.

Think of LSU with a successful passing game to go along with the usual successful run game and defense. It makes the run game better and keeps the defense off the field longer.
