re: Why can't good highschool qbs realize that the qb position is the missing link

No shite Sherlock really... who wouldve known. Is this limited to just coaches?

Then why ask the question? He has been here 2 years. 1 was great and one was bad.

Higher salary should equal higher expectations... Read that again Jax, since u seem to enjoy lecturing people.

High expectations? Like turning a below average qb into a qb that had the 2nd greatest single season in LSU history?
As far as me lecturing posters.its not my fault this board is overrun with xbox coaches that dont understand actual football. Its not my fault you have posters on this board that think because we ran a few zone read and jet sweep plays, that we changed our offense.

quote:

This was the worst QB play Miles has had and we are paying top dollar

Mett in 2012 had similar stats to Jennings in 2014. So let 2015 play out and we may see a big jump in production like Mett had in 2013.

quote:

As Les would say it. Come to LSU where a young quarterbacks dreams come to die.

---

Another rant myth that is false.
SINCE MILES WAS HIRED, NO SEC PROGRAM HAS SENT MORE QBS TO THE NFL THAN LSU.

Its like posters just want to make up things to bash our program.

quote:

---

many coaches in high school still prefer to run a wing t and other run heavily based offenses

---

LSU isn't looking at "many" kids from "many" different high schools... i think there's enough winning QBs in high school out there for everybody

quote:

---

there were, they wouldn't be so heavily recruited.

---

HS qbs that take snaps under center is becoming increasingly rare. Its sucks

quote:

---

There isn't a college program on LSU's level that struggles at this position they way we have.

---

Feels like Texas hasn't had a good qb for a while

You can't be serious with that. I bet Zach thanks Les everyday for getting him to the NFL, being below average and all. Have you watched any of his HS or JC film? And all these Xbox coaches on this site have no understanding of football. As a matter of fact, I feel so much more educated now thanks to you that I am going to completely forget the games I watched last season of what I thought was the most embarrassing QB play and offense that I've ever seen at LSU. Now I'm convinced last season was absolutely phenomenal and if we are lucky, hopefully we can put up offensive numbers coming just close to those then we will surely make the playoffs and maybe even win it all. But if we don't it will probably be due to poor defense bc it couldn't possibly be poor coaching and shite quarterback play. Thanks Bill Walsh

U can play your little stat sheet all u want.
BTW 48% doesnt have anything to do with games played.

Mett ran a real offense and completed 3rd down throws. He audibled and was in control of the offense. But if u cant watch these two QB's with your own eyes and clearly see that Mett was night and day better than Jennings/Harris, then stay in denial.

Stats are facts and can be very very misleading.

U know kinda like the leading scorer on a bad basketball team. Or a guy like Jennings who hands off every play and when he doesnt he might fool someone a have a wide open bomb.

Stats are what they are, stats. Its why they arent under the W/L column.

Stats are facts.not biased opinion. 2012 Mett was no where near 2013 Mett.

Again facts say there wasnt much difference in 3rd down conv%
2012-40%
2014-37%
Just facts.

Miles has sent Russell, flynn, Mett.
Mett spent 5 months at UGA you dumbass. Its amazing how you move the bar to diminish anything positive about Miles' tenure. Its sad.
Youre the idiot.

quote:

---

Do you know how rare it is for a lsu qb to pass the ball 300 times?

His yards per attempt were .4 higher than Jennings. His qb rating was all of 10 points higher than Jennings.

---

So you are basically saying that Mett was just slightly better than Jennings and that next year we should expect a "Pro-like" year out of AJ? I'm not sure about your stats, I've got fun shite to do so I won't be checking them up, but I did watch every game both of those qb's have played as Tigers and sincerely hope you are correct. However, from my "stat-free" perspective in which I only use the good ole eyetest I think we are pretty much fricked unless Harris improved greatly and is given a chance.
