Um, we need SOMEONE!!!
I mean for f's sake, right now we have TWO QBs. One is shitty and we have to HOPE the other one isn't but we don't know yet. AT BEST, if the other one isn't shitty, then we have 1 good QB and 1 shitty QB with not a single legit recruit coming in for 2015.
If that doesn't meet the "needs" another QB standard, then nothing does.

We had the worse QB in the entire NCAA ....we could def use him....frankly...im not even comfortable with AJ being second string next year...all it takes is one hit and Harris is out...if he even wins the job as starter

First of all, hate to burst your bubble there champ, but "Saturday Down South" is like a poor-man's Bleacher Report (before it was bought by Turner.)
My writing prowess has nothing to do with your perception of SDS, man. I've written for quite a few sites and I stand behind my work...I'm paid pretty well as a full-time writer so I've been doing something well for myself. So nah, you're not bursting my bubble.
If you have a rebuttal about the topic; let's go. If you want to try to make yourself look good, leave me out of it -- I'm just here to discuss the piece I wrote with some knowledgeable TD folks...
quote:
Cam's offense didn't look the same as it did in 2013 because we no longer had 2-NFL WRs, and NFL RB, and an NFL QB lining up every play. Besides the ONE game against aTm, the offense did not involve the QB in designed run plays much at all.
So by saying that, you're saying Cameron evolved his scheme? Meaning he implemented different concepts to go along with his different personnel?

Besides the ONE game against aTm, the offense did not involve the QB in designed run plays much at all. Meyer's system revolves around the spread-option.
So you're saying for ONE game Cameron implemented something new? Which is strange considering I brokedown a play with Harris running a read-option against New Mexico I believe...But if you believe the zone-read is all OSU does -- then I can't help you. Just because someone's perform's a play-action out of Shotgun doesn't make everything a zone-read. I'm breaking down OSU film as we speak and I've seen "smash concepts," flat-9's and a ton of diff route combos in the passing game.
Not to mention Cameron had QB-centric runs for Tyrod Taylor in Baltimore. His scheme is not UGA's, it has diversity...But hey man, it's all good. Let's agree to just disagree.

Honestly, AJ barely looks like he warrants having a scholarship. Even if somehow, Harris turns out all-world, that's all the more reason to need another guy. Who would want THAT big a drop off to the #2 guy?

Honestly I wouldnt mind him coming here at all but he just wouldnt fit the 'system'. That being said, neither does Jennings or Harris so

True, but if Braxton Miller comes, he's coming to start which means another season of no reps for Harris, so 2016 comes, now what?

Cheers, Lakeboy! Yeah I understand that. I was told not to ever jump on a message board as a writer because you will always have someone who wants to discredit...But I like TD and I've always like LSU (since Saban haha), so it's all good.
I see the guy keeps going around saying something about needing two years to be eligible for a transfer despite people on this board showing him that's no longer true...He even went on my article and did the same thing...smh

Of course, this is assuming Harris is good and let's all be honest here. If he's REALLY good, then you really have to wonder why the shittiest QB in major college ball didn't give way to him.
Yeah yeah. Miles is stubborn blah blah blah. I think Miles is a damned idiot when it comes to QBs but, I don't think he's such an idiot that if there were a glaring difference between Harris and Jennings, Harris wouldn't get a shot. And let's be blunt here. If there isn't a glaring difference, that's worrisome.

Is Braxton Miller's arm the same as before the injury?

That's a great question...But if anyone is saying they have the answer they are just speculating because nobody knows right now...But that is a great question.

no one knows other than miller at this point

No, bro. I did not go on the site and comment on your article.
I said it in here.
If you do not have two years of eligibility remaining, you must be cleared by the SEC through a waiver process.

If Miles doesn't believe Jennings or Harris could lead this team to the playoffs next year, I could see us taking a stab to land Braxton Miller. LSU should have a solid offensive and defensive cast for next year it would be a shame to see the QB hold us back.

Unless the rule has changed, you wrote this article for no reason.
This article, posted on the first page of this thread, was written three days after the one you linked.
They removed the two-year restriction.

I wonder if he is looking to transfer, if a school was interested, could they hold a try out beforehand?
Posted on 12/12/14 at 2:20 pm to monsterballads
i think if miller had two yrs left it could work.
if this is the same article i read earlier than i wonder if the author has watched any of our games other than the tamu game.
the tamu game is the only game where we actually tried to attack the edges and run the read option more than a couple of times.
thauthor also said that cam runs pro style offense with spread aspects and while that's been true of LSU to some extent in diff yrs under miles it's not the offense this yr. he wrote about us operating out of the shotgun. seriously?
anyway i think miller could be better than either qb we have now and '15 might be an up year but i think he'd actually have more trouble adjusting to the offense than the author would think. still, an intriguing idea.

No doubt. I wasn't writing this article because I was bored, LSU is going to be uber-talented next season as all those young players will have a year under their belts to go along with the upperclassmen.
If you have bad QB play next year it will be a complete waste of a season. That's a title-contending team except at the most notable position...

May be a really good fit for the O, but I'm afraid Mr. Harris may have something to say like
"Here's my transfer request, Les."
