Diarse was still running parallel to the LOS by the time QB released the ball, he should be gaining ground instead.
Gave this another look, and I still have no idea what you're talking about. I don't know how anyone can't see that it's a bubble screen, Diarse ran the route, he was in space, open, with a blocker in front, AJ just had to hit him, but he didn't. What's this about leading him to the sideline? It's a quick, short pass. If he was trying to lead him he made it more complicated. I know I'm dwelling on this, but you're explanation for it is just baffling to me.

Jennings recognizes the corner blitz so throws it deeper than Diarse intended to run
Which wasn't where it should have been placed. That's on the QB.

We see things differently. If you plan on playing a freshman to bring him along and prepare him to be the starter for the next year, you don't make his first start be an away game against one of the top SEC west teams. If you do something like that it would mean that you have seen something that makes you truly believe he's ready or your trying to prove a point that he's not.
What I've seen out of Miles the last 10 years leads me to believe the latter.

Whitfield uses the surf/beach/water as part of his development of balance and footwork and strength. Its all good.
Hey, they can do that at Grand Isle and get some good fishing in at the same time.

Semjackass there you go again with your code words. What gives you the idea that Harris does not possess "Quick Information Processing" skills? Could it have anything to do with his color? Sort of like the "Up North" linemen you seek who can quickly process information. You are a racist POS and should not be a part of LSU fandom considering the racial makeup of the team.

Obviously you are not keeping up. Whitfield and Cameron have a long relationship. I guarantee you if Cam had a problem with Harris and Jennings last year working with Whitfield, he wouldn't have allowed it.
Some of you guys are special. How can you make negative a kids attempt to improve in his craft. But that is the nature of the rant. Now some want to claim Whitfield is no good and cannot help QBs improve. Just insane BS from crazy folks.

I'm still not sure what Mike's deal was yesterday. He started with his whole "Whitfield is a waste of time" shite but then proceeded to get in agruments with everyone and ended every post with "I said it couldn't hurt to have him out there." It was a weird sequence of posts.

Miles has played favorites, but people tend to forget he straight up benched Jennings last year after 5 games. Unfortunately, Harris didn't play any better.
I don't know what game you were watching, but the stats say otherwise.

Yea I would rather Harris stay and throw to his wide outs. Looks more like a vacation to me
This is only for a week at most. He'll have two months to do that.

i think this is the ROOT of his problem. Filling his head with nothing but good instead of some criticism.

When you throw quick screens out on the perimeter the QB is instructed to lead the WR forward and towards the sideline instead of throwing it laterally. It's done that way to prevent the WR from being tackled at or behind the LOS.
Instead of the QB throwing it to the receiver while he's moving backwards or parallel, like so:
He's been taught to lead the receiver forward and out
Too many men on the line, I know.

Guys on sports today said if they're close to equal, Jennings WILL start.
This doesn't make sense. If they're close to "equal"......and I'm assuming thats in every way (playbook knowledge included), then why not start the one with the stronger arm, superior mobility, and bigger upside. Any guesses who that would be?

in case you haven't noticed, Miles has a one track mind. No way Harris starts. The competition doesn't matter, when Miles has HIS guy end of story. The Tigers will go as far as Jennings will take them so we all should just pull for the guy.
Posted on 5/16/15 at 3:35 pm to LSUStan
Miles wants to win more than anyone. He will start the guy who he thinks will help the team the most. You're ignorant if you think otherwise
Posted on 5/16/15 at 3:38 pm to Mickey Goldmill
Logic would say you are right. However Mile's track record says otherwise. He refuses to deviate from HIS quarterback, no matter how shitty he is.

Miles doesn't care enough to prove a point to the fans or the media. In fact, 9 out of 10 coaches wouldn't care. That is the sure sign that you understand sports at only a Madden/local sports talk level, when you think winning coaches make big personnel decisions just to "prove something."

So the only Miles history that supports this is the Lee story. 2007, Miles has a great senior college QB in Flynn, and he still gives Ryan P. more snaps than many college coaches would. 2008 he let every QB on the roster play. After 2008, he just didn't trust Lee. Even if you don't agree with trusting JJ more than Lee, can you really blame Miles that much for reaching that conclusion?
And last year, the true freshman got a chance to start. Don't kid yourself into thinking that every college coach would have given Harris a shot last year as a true freshman that was struggling with play calls, even with Jenning's struggles. Many would, but some would never pull that trigger.
So where is this history of a one track mind with QBs? Just because Miles never regained confidence in Lee after 2008, does not mean he has a complete history of being stubborn about sticking with QBs.

The fact that he hadn't regained confidence with Lee after how he played in 2011 take away Alabama is a major flaw. Harris has one bad game and it's the end of the season for him. to me that is enough of a history. Miles will always stick with HIS quarterback until he is injured or he is forced to do something due to disciplinary problems. Even then as soon as HIS guy gets over injury or suspension he will go back to HIS guy at first opportunity. Harris just isn't his guy and although I feel bad for him and the rest of the team I fully support the team and wish Jennings well. Just because our coach is a buffoon doesn't mean we can't support the team.

Harris had a ankle injury at Auburn, admitted to not knowing the play book, and had to ask other players what to do.
It's amusing that some seem to see having a QB with an injury and lacking play book understanding as no big deal....play him anyway.

Are you a troll or just retarded? JJ came back in the 5th game and didn't start till 6 weeks later and only started then after JL once again failed to be able to handle a top SEC D.

If you want to see a "buffoon", I suggest you have only to look in your mirror.
