I have no expectations for QB this year, just wait and see,


I'm pinning my hopes on the Franks kid in a couple of years

Harris to get the clear nod.


If history is any guide, then not only will BH not start, he will not play at all this season short of injury to AJ. Unless AJ has had a metamorphosis not previously described in the annals of CFB, look forward to a feeble offense which will be completely stymied against multiple SEC defenses this year. LSU must have a legitimate passing game if it expects to go anywhere other than the Who Cares Bowl this year.

Put another one down in the "history shows Les always plays the wrong QB" column. That makes 1,373.

AJ still couldn't seperate himself


I beg to disagree, sir. AJ separated himself as the absolute worst QB in the SEC and second worst was not even close. His performance at QB is among the worst ever. Would that he does not play, let along start unless a game is completely out of hand.

No, the first is written assuming that BH is all that...If AJ is the QB, then LSU loses at least 4 games and goes to the Who Gives a Darn Bowl.

So you have grave misgivings about Brandon Harris's ability as quarterback... AND Anthony Jennings will single-handedly lose 4 games for us?

Won't be suspended for 3-4 games....I'd say the opener.

Setting expectations? Mine are low. We had a terrible offense last year and nothing I have seen yet indicates anything will be dramatically better. How many times during LM\s tenure have we been ranked lower than 90th in total passing?

Too many,

I agree with Katy Tiger. Having any expectations from either of these guys is setting ourselves up for a big dose of frustration. In the spring game neither impressed me. It was really more of the same, just against a vanilla defense. In spite of very little pressure, I saw basically no progression through targets. If option one was covered, it was time to throw it away (Jennings), or tuck and run (Harris). In spite of all of the talent around them, I see us underachieving. The defense will allow us to have success overall. But QB is still the Giant. Oncern it seems to always be imo.

I don't give a shite what they do. I just hope our qb can hit rudimentary passes that 85 percent of the qbs in the nation regardless of star level or pedigree can complete.
