Same player they cheered when he replaced Jennings!

I SMELL JOSH BOOTY VS ROHAN DAVIES PART 2 IN THE WORKS.

Yep really smells like possible team split by end of year with half the team still defending HARRIS and the other half loving on ETLING

I agree we shouldn't be bashing Harris. He seems to be a good kid and he's going through a difficult time as a player. That being said I do not understand the people saying, "Miles isn't putting Harris in a position to succeed with this offense." I think its the exact opposite. You have one of the best running games in the nation last season and it looks to be pretty good this year. Anybody that goes to the games or watches carefully has seen the wide open WRs running around and Harris can't find them. When he does find them he usually misses with the throw. Last year I must have said 6-7 times in big games "man I wish he would have seen Fournette on the check down. He was wide open". I wish the kid all the best and if he gets back in I hope he plays well but his inability to work through his progressions to get to the open guy has always been his downfall.

sidenote, I think Etling seemed to execute different screens much better, including changing his arm angle well on the quick screen in the middle of the line of scrimmage. He had nice pocket footwork, keeping his eyes downfield. He WILL force a few, and it is going to hurt us at some point. Let's see how it goes before the stupid nicknames and SEC title talk. It's foolish.

I totally agree. But this offense is going to change to make sure he has a better chance. Spread is coming.

A lot of that talk comes from the 2 WR routes off of play action that are almost universally going to be deep routes. That is a low risk, high reward play, but it is also a play with a low success rate. We don't do a great job of easing any QB into the game, particularly one who has obvious confidence issues.

This was our first called pass play of the season:



We roll a right-handed QB with known touch problems to his left. That is the point of the talk about putting someone in a position to succeed. We did the same to Etling too at times. PA, 7-step drops when the OL is having hell with the pass rush. Long-developing plays with goofy route trees. It's just a head scratcher at times.

I'll say this. What doesn't kill you SHOULD makes you stronger. Criticism is a part of life. If he's that thin skinned, he's not the guy for the job. First thing Etling did on dropped pass is went and clapped and fired his guy up. Says a lot.

As for the scapegoat race card angle, there was nothing racist about pick six LEE. The kid simply threw a shite ton of pick six's. It was horrible. He got..........BOOED! But he came back and played great when he was needed. Harris has the potential to do the same.

would just call a game for him to get his confidence I think the lights would come on

The first play of the season was most likely practiced 15-20 times at practice. The first plays are usually scripted. Harris practice that roll-out an throw a ton and still couldn't complete it. It's a pretty easy throw actually. Also what the hell is a goofy route tree? I would understand you saying "running goofy routes" but the route tree is just a tree of all the routes a team runs with their names. It's an easy way of learning routes.
