re: Why is wanting better for LSU football a negative?

No one is saying it can't be effective.
I'll disagree here. I watch all the games with a large group, and there hasn't been a single time when this play has been run when I haven't heard at least ten grunts of frustration. There are plenty of people who think that this play should be wiped from the book.
I'm not one of them.

The Ole Miss game proved that. LSU can line up against 80% of the teams they play and do this and win. What's plan B?
If you're implying that there is no plan B, then that's dumb. I'd guess you aren't, but that's for you to decide.
Yes, the offense this year really never developed a Plan B. Most of the opponents didn't respect LSU's ability to throw. And LSU didn't do it very effectively.

It's the childish argument that anyone who criticizes the offense and lack of passing game wants a Texas Tech offense. This is not true.
What about if 80% of sidewalk fans believe it? Stereotypes aren't made up.
I don't concern myself with what sidewalk fans think.

Holy shite. Im done talking to you. You dont know shite about football
ok genius, continue to call the FB lined up behind the tackle and the RB lined up behind the QB an I formation. jesus f'ing Christ!
I guess a single back set is a shotgun without a fullback. A shotgun formation is an I formation just with out the QB under center and the RB's split. Dam, all formations are the I formation.

Many of these Pumpers have a religious mentality. It doesn't seem to matter what is said, they've already made up their minds that Miles is always right and completely above any criticism. It is a totally deranged idea.

Still waiting on your analysis comparing LSU's formations, plays and routes to an NFL offense.
I'll keep checking back. Looking forward to you dropping knowledge on everyone.

It may be untrue about you. I'm not familiar with you, and based on our limited interaction I'm not much interested. But, that does seem to be a common attitude among the Pumpers (if the label doesn't apply, don't personalize it).

You've been gone for a couple days but JaxTiger and LSUgroupee has picked up your slack.
Welcome back!

Yeah I saw you backpedaling a few pages back.

Sounds like? Do you think they effectively developed a plan B? Do you think being that unbalanced is efficient?

My post doesn't have anything to do with Miles' record during his tenure. You are so used to repeating your pro-Miles schtick that you can't even address the point of my post.

Do any of your posts have anything remotely interesting to say? Or are they just generalizations of "pumpers" and "sidewalk" fans.

Posted this in another thread and I'd like to get your insight on the situation with our Quarterbacks.
quote:
In the New Mexico game this year Harris came in and led 6 TD drives after jennings turned it over 3 times in the first quarter.
Les Miles and Cam Cameron gave Harris the start on the road vs Auburn. This throws out the argument that he doesn't know the playbook. Would Les and Cam start a guy on the road who doesn't know the playbook? Why would they start a guy who gets out worked day in and day out by AJ?
Harris had an awful game but he was setup for failure. The play calling was terrible, we ran it 18 of the first 21 plays and when we looked up we were down 17-0.
So after his one start, Jennings gets the job back and gets a total of 11 starts on the year. Pretty bad sample size to come to the conclusion that Jennings is definitely the correct answer.

quote:You said they do what they do 80% of the time and asked what's Plan B. Wouldn't that be whatever they do the other 20% of the time?
Sounds like?
quote:Effective and efficient enough to go 8-4 against this year's schedule. No more, no less.
Do you think they effectively developed a plan B? Do you think being that unbalanced is efficient?
I take that back. It was effective and efficient enough to go 9-3 against this year's schedule, but there was a game that the guys choked away. A big game. shite.
quote:Yeah, those numbers can be really annoying when they don't support your opinions.

It is no secret that quarterback play is a point of need for the Tigers. No sane person denies that. I am uninterested in discussing the professional or personal relationship between our coaches. They are paid handsomely and will do their best, and I will root for them to do so.

So how long before he drops out of this meaningless ranking? And why not "one of the best 7 or 29 or 63 or . . ."?

i'd disagree that he's capable of evaluating the QB position, or managing the clock/timeouts.
He's good at a number of other things though. All coaches make questionable/dumb decisions, so when people act like LSU has the only coach who does this they're mistaken.
