re: Brandon Harris is not the answer at QB. Does Les not see this?

Was Jennings more moldable than Harris? Guess we'll never find out. What about Eitling or McMillion? Can they actually be worse? Are Harris other attributes, his running mainly, worth the trade off for his terrible accuracy?

Is there a system Harris could be effective in? If not him, who?

Dude STFU.

You whine like a little bitch, then berate other people's opinions?

Coach Miles is staying for now, don't make it any worse on everyone else.

I haven't berated anybody. I did a facepalm at somebody wanting McMillan to play. I also stated my opinions on the QB position over Miles tenure.

If anybody is berating it is you for telling me to STFU. Sorry you cannot handle criticism of Miles.

And a huge LOL for my message board opinion making it worse on everyone else.

I'm sure he does but what the hell is he going to do about. Cam and him put there eggs in the Brandon Basket. He is JJ all over without the attitude. Les needs to get of the damn mobile QB shite and find one who can hit the broad side of a barn.

In his presser last night, when asked about an overhaul for the offense, Les responded with "the engine(LM7)is fine". He did seem to agree that the passing game needed to be fixed, but, with that statement, basically promised more of the same. His response has been consistent, so expect more of the same. Booger had it right last night when he reported that the issues were still there.

Harris turns into the next Brandon Allen

On what planet was JJ better than Lee in 2011? Two unfortunate passes in Tuscaloosa ruined that season for us by allowing JJ to become the starter. And the offense instantly turned to shite.

That game rattled Lee and it appears that the game in Tuscaloosa this year did the same to Harris

BH needs to improve his decision making process. When he tries to hurry, bad things happen. Panic and failure are his worst enemies. I think the coaches should enroll him in a 7 on 7 league that plays every day for 3 months, record the results and critique him weekly. he needs 100's of reps, not the 20 or so 3 days a week at practice

I agree with all that

My sources say that Miles actually planted QB seeds in the greenhouse and we are waiting for them to mature...

I think Harris' regression is a confidence problem

I have a different interpretation. Harris' regression is a "lack of development" problem. Early in the season, when we had opportunities to let him throw the ball (and develop as a QB), we were far too focused on running the ball 75% of the time and letting LF run up his numbers. When Bama had the game plan and the athletes to stuff LF and our running game, we essentially threw a first-year starter (with little experience throwing the ball) into the breach. Of course he couldn't win that game on his own, given his lack of throwing experience. Then, Arkansas and Ole Miss jumped out to early leads, while we were doubling down on our running game, and those games got out of hand. As a result, we again had to resort to relying on Harris' arm to keep us in the game. It didn't work in those games either. He showed the same ineffectiveness in the A&M game, but our defense kept it close so that the running game got us over the hump.

I expect the exact same scenario next year. We'll mostly run the ball early in the season, and then Bama will stuff us once again. The only problem is...with road games against Wisconsin, Florida, and Auburn prior to the Bama game, I highly doubt we'll be undefeated when Bama comes to Tiger Stadium.
