The first four comments that were made on today's report are encouraging for the coming year.

1. Throwing more than 50 percent of the time in a closed scrimmage is enough to get Tiger fans excited about a potential shift in the passing game. Whether this will be reflected on Saturdays this fall remains to be seen, but at the start of spring practice, LSU has put much more emphasis on passing.
2. Speaking of the passing game, newly hired receivers coach Dameyune Craig, a former quarterback who served as QB Coach at Florida State, has been given the green light to help with the quarterbacks. Brandon Harris says it’s helping.
3. What good is a strong arm without a little accuracy? This spring, Harris has recognized the need for touch, and Craig and Cam Cameron are helping him develop said touch. Accuracy charts show a clear improvement.
4. If it isn’t broke don’t fix it, or in LSU’s case, if a subtle change helps produce a bowl game blowout, roll with it. Coming off of the heels of the 56-27 victory against the Red Raiders in December, Cameron will return to the sidelines to coach instead of manning the press box.

The last one is what I like to hear. The others not so much. Should have worked on the passing game for 7 years now. And we didn't need to bring in DC for Harris to work on his touch and accuracy, dude should have been doing that on his own, busting hiss arse when he's not allowed contact with the coaches.

Just as bad as the passing game to me is the blocking for the passing game. Our OL is so trained to bull ahead for LF7 and others so much that they don't "sit in a chair" as well. They need better technique at pass blocking. To me that is just as big as the QB improved play

Craig helping the quarterbacks should be a huge boost.

It is very difficult to passionately love this team and not have one's "panties in a wad" after so much ineptitude through the air.

Glad it's not just me.

Put up or shut up. I've heard enough of the coach speak, fan website reporting, sunshine pumping bullshite rhetoric to last me a lifetime.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Screw the hype, screw spring drills, screw the interviews, screw the tweets, screw the off season workouts, screw the August practices:
SHOW ME IN NOVEMBER WHEN IT COUNTS DAMNIT!

Cameron was missing obvious things even with the view he had from the box, so it makes perfect sense to have him on the sidelines. It was disturbing to see him not notice Harris/Jennings missing open receivers down field, or defenses making adjustments, etc.

These posts make no sense. It's the offseason. There are not games to be played v SEC teams for several months. Why the vitriol for fact reporting on what the Tigers are emphasizing in Spring practice? I like what I am hearing; I would think fans clamoring for more balance would agree. And yet you are here running down the coaches and QB who you think in a very self-entitled way have to "prove it" to you. No they don't. They have to work on it, which is what they are doing.

I find it almost comical (but really it is sad) that we have a returning starter at QB with a big arm and athleticism, we have a solid line returning, we have (at least) three future NFL WRs and the best running back in a generation and, rather than being genuinely excited about how good this offense could be, the cool thing to do is be negative.

This is the best thing that I have read from this. I think it's critical for Cam Cameron to be on the sidelines in order for our offense to be successful.

Jonathon, have we not heard this all before? If you want to fantasize based on press releases, metered out practice viewing time and having your buttons pushed by a sports information dept., fine with me. I wish I could bite the hook, I did for years.
But the 3 game skid last year tore it for me. After YEARS of gladly swallowing the happy talk, those three games showed me, not just by losing, but by HOW they were lost, that happy talk isn't worth a damn thing.
You can talk all you want at work, but finally you have to perform, at least most people do.
