Who do I think will be taking the first snaps in the washington game?

huh?



what odds do you give to lee to win the starting job?

okay, so i'll put up $5 and you put up $95

if $5 isn't worth your time, than what is $100?

if thats the case, i'll put up $100 (20x5) and you put up $1900 (20x95)?

if you really believe that, this should be a no brainer

starting QB odds if JJ gets badly injured and cant play all season.

Shepard 45%........JL 25%.......Chris Garrett 25%....other 5%

We would most likely have to switch the offense to a simpler wildcat formation type offense with Shepard running it. Occasionaly bringing in JL or Garrett (whichever one wins the backup spot) for a change up to a more conventional type offense.

yes you have...numerous times

and no, i am not going to dig through hundreds of your posts to find one

if you deny you have said something to the affect like "JJ is the starter in 2009" then you are just a flat out liar

I would guess that jefferson would be the starting QB for LSU next year.

thats a backpeddle if i have ever see one, but i guess a backpeddle is betetr than risking $1900

MOST people here areb't contesting that issue

most people agree it will likely be JJ, BUT most are not suggesting the competition is as closed as you keep saying...even the head coach

I'm pulling this info from watching JJ play OK against Ark, his first game as a true freshman, and play very well, winning the MVP of the chic-fil bowl his 2nd game, displaying size and atheletic ability, a strong fairly accurate arm, abililty not to stare down recievers, find his secondary recievers, improvisational skills (the underhand pass), field generalship, confidence in himself, from his teammates, and from his coaches. All this in his second game, a big game, as a true freshman.
Sometimes a person is put in a situation in life that seems imposible to handle, that they are no where ready for, but they manage to rise up and exceed expectations other times they don't. JJ did , JL didn't.
JL performed as you might expect a redshirt freshman to perform (very eratically ) when thrown into circumstances that were unexpected and he wasn't yet ready to handle. He will improve and it still might just come together for him in a great way. Who knows.

thats alot of words to read but has very little to do with lee's ability to regain his confidence and the confidence of his teammates and coaches. the fans, well, they're a different story but fans prove year in year out how irrational and dumb they are

this QB battle (barring injury) is a 2 man race between JL and JJ.

that's not what Les Miles says in the Times-Picayune article linked in the original post. He seems to indicate it's a two man battle between JJ and Shep, and lumps CG and JL together.

I love how when ever the people supporting JJ say something bad about lee the lee lovers call them stupid and not sensible. Yet if it's the other way around with the lee lovers say negative stuff about jj(which usually has very little truth too it) all should listen and agree like it is the word of god
