Don’t notice it until the paradigm shift of masterminds calling the plays changes.

Say/believe what you will, players can only do so much... Imagine Joe under Les...

Would look like 2018 offense.

Also this didn't help.

Just like Harris and Jennings sucked when they transferred. They were bad QB's.

That's bullshite, they were bad QB's because the damage had already been done to them playing in that garbage can of a system that Miles had them playing in. Jennings coming from a spread passing offense in high school in Marietta, GA was a top passing QB at that time when he was recruited. Harris played in a RPO offense in HS running and throwing the ball really well there for HS ball. Then they both come to LSU and start playing in that bizarre offense where half the time you didn't know what the hell they were doing. One minute they'd lineup in the power I or pistol or whatever, then they'd run the old rollout option play. Then he'd call a pass play with them lining up under center (something neither of them was familiar with doing) when they got stuffed on repeated run plays and it was 3rd and long. Just a screwed up, crazy arse type of offense if I ever saw one. Harris played that 1 season for NC and Fedora needed much more time than that to undo all the damage done to him. But even in that 1 season you could see the talent, the rocket arm and all, he was just inconsistent with his passing being all over the place as expected.

I think had both those guys played in spread offenses (probably at other schools) from the beginning, their careers would have been totally different.

yeah, Fedora just needed to have him from the beginning to play in his system for 3 to 4 years. To make him a much more efficient QB in passing the ball, not overthrowing receivers like he did. I watched some of those NC games and sometimes he would throw some beautiful passes in leading the O down the field, ropes right on the money, and then come right back the next play and do something stupid in throwing a pic off a bad pass that should have been a short TD throw. Lol

I think they were probably good early on like you said because they just played then off of natural ability without having to think too much. But once they became upper classmen and they got more into the teeth of what type of O that Miles/Cameron was running, having to think much more now, I think that really screwed them up then.
