100% this.

The Interception against Wisconsin was, literally, the WORST interception I've ever seen.

The WORST Interception I've ever seen

PLEASE, for the love of God, someone tell me what system would have helped his accuracy.

Wish he could've had some better coaching while here.


if there's one thing Cameron did at LSU was coach Brandon Harris. and so did his personal coach. if anything, he was overcoached.

his problems on the field did not stem from coaching. he did not have a good pocket presence and simply could not throw an accurate pass from the short to medium ranges.

it's easy to blame the coach but it's a two way street; the student must be willing and able to learn. I can tell you've never played football at a high level.

I'm not very surprised he chose to go somewhere else. I do wish he'd stay and compete though. Like others said we're one injury away from playing a redshirt freshman. And I think Canada could've used his strengths if Etling ever went down.

It was dumb and very Miles-like ( but I repeat myself) of the staff not to give him some opportunities in the back half of the year.
You don't alienate your only back up quarterback with experience for the likes of Danny Etling.
Cue the downvoters who don't think it's the coaching staffs job to manage the QB situation.

For those that care...VT reached out to gauge his interest.

We lost our QB Evans and only have a R-Fr who has never taken a snap, a true Freshman, and a Juco transfer from Nebraska who was more run than throw.

I read the first couple pages and the last. Did anybody comment on the egregious grammatical errors by a so-called college student?

Just saying. I know he is by no means the worst, but somebody making those errors should never graduate from college. Down vote away. Idgaf

Cool, harris has a rocket arm, just need extra tall receivers, fast ones for his best throw, the long ball, & won't have to waste anytime in practice on those tuff to execute screen passes...

No way. That time Jarrett Lee stared down the Auburn DE and double clutched so he could wait for the guy to get out to intercept it.

Sorry to hear this. When someone comes to play for us I want them to be successful so it's disappointing. Best wishes to Brandon.

Some don't understand when it's said that he wasn't put in a situation to be successful in. QB'ing demands playing with confidence, not being tentative. Part of that is running an offense that fits his skill set. What we were doing didn''t. BH played in an O in HS that threw the ball like 50X. That's him but that wasn't Les (or O apparently).

If Brandon was smart and patient he should find an air raid, redshirt, and play in '18.

We don't have an experienced back up


While that's true, if it was me and I was looking at probably being a back up that late in my college career, I'd head for somewhere I could start as well.

Glad Coach O gave him a full release and not try to block him, I think that would not have happened with the previous regime.

Good luck to him. Maybe a change of scenery will help.

That's cute.

I usually stay away from comments like I made. Yeah Brandon Harris was a horrible pocket passer and had some of the worst footwork I've seen in a QB. That has to reflect a bit on coaching. If he's not doing what they are coaching and the results aren't there, WHY was he our starting QB for 1+ years before getting yanked.
