Playing wideout as a freshman is much different than playing QB as a freshman.

true freshman qbs in the sec that start do not have a good track record. and before anybody goes on to say tebow.. he ran what 4 plays? it just doesnt happen, can someone name one?

freshman wr rb defensive players etc can be good, they dont need the experience/studying to be a qb

freshman can play in SEC look at Jeffrey at S. Carolina. he is a true freshman and has more receiving yards than either TT or BL. fyi, his QB has a lower QB rating than JJ.

Comparing a freshman QB to WR or RB is ludicrous. WR and RB are easy positions for true frosh to get some reps.

Yep and having more receptions than BL, TT, etc. on a team that can't run the ball is expected when LSU is primarily a running team who doesn't really trust its' QB to go downfield.

What do you think the ratio is between true freshman that are ready to play without mistake compared to true freshmen that make a shite tons of mistakes and usually are redshirted because of it?

Lee also had to burn a timeout when he didn't know the formation or play, it wasn't just RS, both of them were unprepared which doesn't speak well of our coaches.

My bad he said receiving yards, not receptions.

disagree. RS tried to lineup twice in the wrong spot. That timeout was on Shepard.

The only thing that says is that Jeffery has more catches down the field. So what?

NVM

He was saying that a frosh WR has more receiving yds than BL, TT, etc. My point was that;

A. It's easier to be successful @ WR than QB as a frosh

B. It would be expected that WR's on bad running teams would have more rec yds than WR's on a team which doesn't throw as much.

The complete, outright, unashamed idiocy of this post and others like this one on this board has officially overtaken that of Alabama or Tennessee fans. Can we not quarantine some of these people?

What I wouldn't pay to actually have some of these posters coach just one quarter of LSU football real time and see what they do. No doubt they will think that merely walking on the field will assure them victory. Block Mark Ingram? No need, we have "superior talent." Run an offense? "HAH, I can do it in my sleep (and I have). With both Jarrett Lee AND Russell Sheppard throwing bombs all over the field!"

I didn't mean that RS should start as a QB. My point was go look at Jeffrey as one indication of freshman in SEC playing very well. RS and RR are more talented than Jeffrey so they should be ready to play and making a bigger contribution. I SAY COACHING, MY FRIEND.

I realize LSU has more talent than some other schools but the facts are that LSU has no receiver in the top 6 or 7 in SEC in total yards and no rusher in top 8 or 9 in rush yards. RS and RR (no. 1 wr in H.S., 6 receptions in games)
should be making more of a contribution.

I WONDER WHY REED DOESN'T WANT TO GO TO LSU.

Wrong
Toliver is 6th and Lafell 8th. Not bad for a team that doesn't throw much.
Highest ranked Bama receiver is Maze at 17. Do you blame Bama's not having a top 6 or 7 receiver on coaching?
Toliver is ranked 1 spot higher than the highest UF receiver, Hernanandez.

Wrong again
Scott is 9th and by the way, our o-line isn't all that great.
