Very proud of Lee's comments and attitude in that article. I hope like hell he has a great senior campaign.

Same, I think Lee can be a good QB is he is giving the job full time. None of that 2 QB crap where the defenses knew we was throwing most of the time.

This picture in the article shows the flaws in Lee's mechanics that we have all seen for three years. He's standing flat-footed, knees not bent, and about to throw the ball. He better have a strong arm (and he does) to deliver the ball from this posture.

This is also the posture that you see when his first option is not open. Snap, drop, reveiver covered - then boom! This posture makes an appearance. Add to the fact that he doesn't like to get hit - totally understood by the way - and you start to see the off the back foot throws.

Hopefully, Krags has worked on this with him. We'll see on Saturday. I hope he does well, because he has earned the right to play. He's played well at times when we needed him, but could not consistently stay on the field due to inconsistency - see the above picture.

If he can't cut it we're likely done, because from all accounts, Mettenberger has not earned the right to play yet. Jefferson threw his right to play away by being at the very least, in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Holy shite I made SI???? I only post on the rant maybe once every other week

That's gonna piss off the rantards, especially those asshats that try to make every post some kind of sports journalism masterpiece.

GENERAL LEE!

I'm confident Krags will help fix Lee's bad lower body mechanics - that's what he does.

I'd be willing to bet very often. When a national writer or tv commentator comments on how LSU fans are feeling "collectively", I can't help but to think they read TD. No other way would they know how our fanbase is feeling.

So this guy is basing what LSU fans are like off of what he reads on TigerDroppings?

Idiot.
