Are you upset that Les Miles chose Anthony Jennings as our starting QB?

    For real. Teams with young talent and great coaching show improvement from game to game. We don't.

    So why is other schools can get guys like K Hill, Manziel or Winston others, who all had or are having significantly more success very early in their career? Only at LSU do we use the excuse of youth to mask a questionable talent evaluation in recruiting. I am not talking about Harris.........although I want to see what he does from the 1st snap, not the last 6. BTW, Mett transferred here, who is the last "stud" we have had at QB..........like, who is getting 100 mill in the NFL???

    You certainly do make a point. The last 2 Heisman winners were red shirt freshmen. Can't argue with stone cold facts dude!!!

    But Jamarcus Russell did steal $30 million from Al Davis!!! LMAO

    You forgot his pass against ULM that sailed 20 yards over the WR and landed in the LSU bench? He will NOT be allowed to throw the ball against Auburn like he did vs Miss St...until we're down by 21

    Jennings can be a good quarterback if they would actually allow him to fucking quarterback. And I can't for the life of me figure out why we can't recruit a pocket passer for this pro-style offense we try to run instead of recruiting fucking zone read quarterbacks to run it.

    shane and i discussed after the bowl game (albeit way too prematurely) nd many days in between that jennings skill-set was much too limited for LSU to compete amongst the elite of the sec. we hoped we were wrong. still may be. But his arm seemed to be lacking and his decision making seemed not so great with a better talent on the bench. I think that was clear saturday night. But maybe jennings can prove that wrong. i know changes across the board need to happen, starting with better coaching and talent evaluation. This isnt the player's fault. They aren't trying to suck.
