Harris is not a leader. Danny Etling is. It is already obvious that the coaches recognize that several players were not being utilized and that favorites were being played. Etling was also being held back.

My question is why Mile and Cam didn't see the talent difference between Harris and Etling. Now that it is obvious that the team is responding to the coaching and personell changes some of you are so in love with Harris that you ignore reality and seem to want Etling to fail. It is amazing. Some of y'all are stupid.

We were right at the edge of the Fg line and have you seen our fg kicking this year? If we dont try to get closer and we miss the kick then yoid be blasting the staff for playing it too close to the vest.

He threw the int on 1st down with 57 seconds left. We were at the Wisky 35. By no means a sure thing kick.



I saw the game. I also started screaming at the TV the moment I saw Harris drop back to pass.

If I was calling the game, I'm running Fournette or Guice until either the clock or the down forces me to stop. I'm sure as hell not risking a sack or an INT.

Specifically, I would've went 4-wide, then run dives up the middle.

If the kicker misses, oh well. At least we got the kick off down two and within FG range.

Why have three kickers on the roster (at least two on scholarship - not to mention the one that got cut to make room for the DT that's too fat to play) if you don't have confidence in any of them to be able to kick a 45-50 yard FG?

The pass Harris threw that got picked only would've gained 5 yards or so if completed unless the WR gained yards after he catch. Personally, I'd rather try to get those yards on the ground in that situation - especially considering that our two best offensive players are both running backs and our line sucks at pass blocking.

The pass thrown by Harris vs. Wisconsin is on him no matter how many of you want to polish that kids nuts.

The pass is absolutely on him. Should've thrown it away.

It was a horrible decision to even attempt a pass in the situation though given who our quarterback was and how bad our line is at pass blocking.

Harris is terrible, no coach can teach touch and football instincts. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken poop.

Why are you talking about DE in a post about BH and Urban Meyer. Did tou test well on standardized tests (reading comprehension)?

It was 1st down and 57 seconds left and it was gonna be a very long kick. If we dont try to get closer and our shaky fg kicker misses you blast miles for playing scared.
Its not like there was 20 seconds left.

Youre the only person saying this. It wouldve been a 45 yard kick woth shaky fg kicking. Its smart to try to get closer by throwing the ball.

Also im calling bullshite on you being ok with a missed fg kick if miles doesnt try to get closer with 57 SECONDS LEFT AND ITS 1ST DOWN.

For many of the Harris lovers and etling bashers, it is a little deeper than that, skin deep.

Here's two simple ideas. Both guys have talent. One belongs in a (1) pro style system, the other (2) DT system. As to leadership, Cam Newton has never been heralded as been a great "leader". That didnt stop Auburn from winning a national championship, nor Newton from becoming the league MVP last year.
