Supercoool... His last season in TS was like a perfect storm of fearless strong armed QB putting on a "how to use the best WR duo in the nation" clinic!

Third downs sure were fun that season.

TW was a 5star Rival's CB so I wouldn't say that he wasn't highly respected coming in but maybe he kinda got lost in the pack at DBU? I do remember a couple of recruits dads acting ticked off when they gave him his 5th star even though he was always a QB while their boys were all american cbs their whole careers. That just told me that White was a far superior athlete and yet he still managed to hit the ground running at DBU.


So yeah... he is elite no matter what writers say.

For that matter, so am I.

Bro we can still take early enrollees we the just can't sign until they are on campus and we won't have a the luxury of unlimited communication.

Thats a relief. Gumps still suck

This is way worse that most people realize. Go and take a look at the early enrollees that we will lose out on and then see which ones will end up at bama because of this.

This could ruin the team for a while and directly benefit them.

so true... So many things have to be clicking to have success on offense that the uncertainty of bad OL play just seems to almost suck the life out of players and coaches after a while.

Tenn was damned lucky that Mett was still avail where they got him and if they can find a sucker club who wants to sell their souls for one of those two Heisman QBs then tenn could build one great foundation for their future with this draft.

I would love to see them pick up LC at a lower 1st round pick and load up on defense for most of their remaining picks. GOO METT!!

Oh god dont tell me... I've been overseas for more than a month.

HOLYSHIT WTF

STEELE?

I feel sick

i'll be extremely disappointed if we allow more than 30 completions for the whole season.

It would be nice to see those mustang sets dominate again. Chavis will need a few of those young DL trench warriors to get Moffitized so that he can field six or seven of those speed demon DBU assassins all together in those hybrid dime and nickels.

There's nothing wrong with having 6 or more 1st and 2nd rounders in your secondary as long as they all see the field.

I'm am a little disappointed in the lack of faith that some of my Tiger brethren have against the war chickens in their house.

The lack of a rotation at DT was our downfall in both of our losses. Although the DL isn't quite where we would like to see them, they have improved enough to hold their own. The rest of the team has also improved and as a whole, this Tiger team can beat anyone.

The best part of it all is that we will pretty much be anb improving team for the next couple of years so the fun is just beginning.

I laugh at a war chicken. It is now time to snap that gump streak and restore the natural order or LSU dominance.

First of all, I believe that Cam is seriously simplifying the play calling due to his not trusting the QBs to make reads.

Also, I truly believe that one of Les' biggest mistakes with JJ back in that day is that JJ was a great practice QB but didn't trust his own re4ads at gametime. This might also be happening with Jennings. He might not be totally trusting his reads and that will always result in throwing the ball too late because the ball pretty much be in the air at the same time that the receiver ei9ther is making his cut or the defender is pealing off of the target receiver when handing him off in zone.

The biggest issue that I believe is hurting the passing game is that the QBs do not trust the receivers to...

1)protect the ball from defenders
2)run the route tree exactly how the QB sees it needing to be run.

The result is two fold as well...

1) the QB will not throw the ball early enough.
2) The OC will not allow the rec's to run those route trees very often instead opting for a simple route which is only sometimes open as opposed to almost always open.


There are so many other things involved in this but I will just leave it at that.

The FACT of the matter is that each year there are a half dozen missing senior veteran players that LSU does not get to play. These veterans are not only NFL ready but they are all draft caliber and some are first and second day draft guys.

All of you guys who honestly believe that LSU wouldn't be a juggernaut with these players on the field are just plain not wanting to hear the truth and much rather just rag on Les.

For instance, do you really think that we would have lost to MSU with those two DTs that we lost to the NFL last year? If you think that MSU would have still gashed our DL with them playing then you are a dumbarse.

Although your stats are rock solid, I propose that simply altering the mix or throwing a wrinkle or two in the mix from time to time will not stop the box stacking fest vs LSU.

For example, with a RS senior gunslinger and the best receiving duo in the nation, the Tigers still had to throw completions over and over for the first half of the season before their opponents finally started to alter their box stacking strategy.

My point is really simple here... the Tigers are not only going to have to throw the ball much more often to back off the defenses but they are going to have to COMPLETE most of them or nothing will change.

It is very aggra vating indeed to watch these defenses with weak secondaries never get exposed or even tested when we face them but Les' strategy is much more multidimensional than most of us think. Personally, the fact that they've replaced all of the skill players allows me to chalk this up to growing pains but there is that part of me that knows that passing the ball is not that difficult when enough effort is put into practicing both during the fall and even more importantly, throughout the summer without staff supervision. Once that kind of work ethic is established and allowed to produce results, then Cam can draw up a playbook that will look more like last year's route trees and timing passes based on reads, etc.

I wish that it was as simple as playing the other QB and calling more passes.

The guys who still think we have a shot at the West title never cease making me chuckle

The guys who honestly believe that this season is shot make me sick. It is pretty much the same mentality that cleared the stadium out.

Nothing would have pleased me more than for the Tigers to have pulled it off at the end and then totally rag on the fans for deserting them. We are supposed to be an example of an alpha game day fan base and we totally wretched out instead.

100% behind this thread and and 1000% behind our players. This team is going to have growing pains, but with experience will come more W's and a very very bright future.

A little skeptical about the Les, but I'm pumping sunshine on my team til I die. They'll get the gameplan fixed to maximize our personnel.

I am proud of this thread because that game was exactly what we all knew could happen to this team... Growing pains cost us a win. If the team wouldn't have come back late then there would be a problem. The fact that they took MSU's best punches and almost came back proves that they've grown a lot in that game alone.

And don't be too hard on Miles. When your players are two years younger than their opponents at 7 out of 11 positions it ain't easy to fire on all cylinders. I would blame the DTs who left early without decent draft grades before I blame Les. What would those MSU runs up the middle have looked like with those two on the field?

Troll Much?

As for my preference... we simply don't know how Lee would have done under Cam in order to compare him to the other two.

During the 2011 season, I loved watching Lee run the I-Form like it was meant to be ran. There is no need for a mobile QB when the rest of the players are doing their jobs. What is needed is a good passer at that position. It is nice to have a mobile QB but it is necc to have a good passer.

In the end, both of our current QBs will surpass Lee simply because of coaching and the Shite that Lee was caught up in pretty much killed what should have been the greatest team in the BCS Era.
