Jennings will probably be transferring. He feels that he is an elite QB and I don't think he's willing to chance another season on the bench

Yeah i know that, but that isn't something he can't improve on.

Look at Brandon Allen's state line from 2012

128/258 49.6% 1552 yards 6.0 Average 13 td 10 Int

Thats fricking terrible, AND it was his RS Sophomore year. He as a year older than Harris.

Nice job cutting out the context of that sentence that said Mett in 2012, which you must've had amnesia during, but was extremely similar to Harris's season this year.

Time tends to make people forget stuff like that. If harris comes out like Mett did in 2013 or anywhere close and we start winning again, everyone will look at this season as a great step in his development. But the world is doom right now, I get that.

I'd like to see McMillan get a shot.

If he beats out harris sure, but i would rather actually have an upperclassmen and 2nd year starters than a 3 star with 0 Snaps

What is the story on Bergeron? I seem to recall that he transferred from a junior college that played in the same division as the team Mett had played for. I remember reading at the time some coaches in that league had great praise for him. Anyone have current info?

There is no chance in hell this will happen. If there was any faith left in him he would have gotten some snaps this year

There's a reason he pays his own way through school

no where near as good as "Move Landry to safety"

But to be fair, he would have been a good safety

We just need an offseason incident in Tigerland to make it happen.

Gather up Team Sweep.

Let's wait until after the Spring Game though.

Thought I remembered hearing he had some small school offers but that he really wanted to be a tiger. You could have a point though.

What would draw a high ranking QB prospect to LSU and Miles' offense?

I got to give to other fan bases like aTm. When they signed Kyle Allen they thought they were getting John Elway. He had a decent freshman year and the aggies were satisfied. Fast forward to today Allen has very similiar numbers to Harris and was even lost his starting role for a game, but they never bashed the kid or talk as much shite as LSU fans do about their sophomore QB.

Why the frick does our stupid arse fan base have so unrealistic expectations?

Harris also has similar numbers to Mett his first year as a starter. But we have this dumb arse ben coleman talking about a true sophomore QB plateauing. What a fricking moron.

Surely he knows he isn't starting material much less NFL caliber and will get his free LSU degree then move on.

Sounds like most people believe Harris is head and shoulders above Jennings.

Harris
1904 yards 12 TDs
185 yards 3 TDs

Jennings
1611 yards 11 TDs
292 yards 0 TDs

Sure they did. They wanted to see Murray.

Harris freaked after the Bama game, I think he caught what J. Lee had.
