Probably because a team is allowed to have over 100 players on it? This isn't the NFL, Relax bro.

By this assertion, along with the one that claimed he was the worst in the SEC, you would have to conclude that we had the worst record in the SEC. I dont think we did, so maybe there are a few holes in your logic.

Kenny hill and kyle allen both individually had better gross stats than Jennings, yet aggregately didnt achieve as many wins.

It must be easy to live inside that simple brain of yours. Let me guess, you are currently thinking about what you will have for lunch?

Gotta give Les an A for effort. If one of those walk-ons is the real deal, he will be a Hero.

Quit pumping so hard! If AJ was able to complete in the 60% range and check down to secondary rec, we wouldn't even be talking, but he can't and has shown zero improvement throughout the seaon last year! If he does it this year you won't hear shite from me!

Maybe, more likely this will be the only chance the receivers will get to catch actual passes before they run block all season.

How many QB's did the OSU have on their roster last season?

It seemed to work out OK for the bucknuts.


Yes and every year you see some big time team starting a walk-on late in the year.

LSU's two best both run.

I'm not sure if I've seen this topic covered. Why would we need 8 QB's taking up coaching time? I can see 6 maybe...in the spring, but 8 seems like a bit much. I understand all but 3 are walk ons. Enlighten me.



It's all very simple. Les is a major stockholder in TD. He wants to generate more posts from all of the Natty Lite Coaches Association members that will each pick a different favorite and load up the board with reasons why their hero should be playing instead of the coaches' choice.

No, not pumping, just pointing out how stupid you are.

Would it be fair to say Jennings threw the ball away at least once out of every 10 passes? so lets say he just took a sack each of those times insteaf. take away those attempts, with the same number of completions, and boom, he is at 60% .

Conversely, he averaged around 8 ypa if I remember correctly, and threw about 15 passes. 10% (from 50% to 60%) is 1.5 attempts for about 16 yards more per game.

So by increasing that %, everything else held constant, best case scenario is we have 16 yards more of offense per game. Tell me which game you think that would have made a difference.

You would be spitting this bullshite either way.

Wut, he only had three options deep, throw away or sack! You are stuck in La La land!
