Kirk Herbstreit in LSU's practice facility on the set of College Football Live, eating crawfish from Walks Ons Chris Lowe: "Big thanks to the folks at Walk On's Restaurant and Bar for some great eats -- crawfish and a little bit of everything."
Times Picayune: With dozens of high school coaches watching, (Les) pulled out a new variation on an old drill. It's called the Big Cats Drill, best described as the Big Cat Drill times three, plus one handoff. Three blockers try to make a hole for a running back against three defenders. "We created a little competition for the crowd on the perimeter," Miles said. "We started with a "plural" Big Cats Drill. There was hooting and hollering and a lot of fun. I thought that started the practice out extremely well." It made quite an impression on the coaches in attendance and lit a fire under the Tiger players and coaching staff. One particularly impressed guest was retired coach Jack Harbaugh, father of Super Bowl XLVII coaches John and Jim of the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers, respectively, who met Feb. 3 in the Superdome. Harbaugh, who coached at Michigan when Miles played there from 1973-75, is in town as Miles' guest and the featured speaker for the clinic Friday. "This drill warms the cockles of your heart," Harbaugh said. "You want to be a coach, you want to yell and scream and hoot and holler. That was like the old days. That was really fun."
Thanks for posting, LSUDad! Two thoughts come to mind: 1)It's going to be scary for our defense if we go hurry up and 3-and-out often. 2)7-5? 6-6? What are these people smoking? Sure the schedule's tough, but 7-5? Come on, now.
Yep, some just don't how good a hire was done by Les with Cam. Oh, stats from today... Zach Mettenberger stat line from today's scrimmage: 15-26, 276 yards, 6 TDs.
Sounds like Jennings is playing his way into the backup role. I think it'd be great if we used him just like RP in 2007.
