    What a laugh. You are a Harris guy except when you are not.

    If Harris is the future of this team, it is time to step up and show it. No ifs, ands, or buts.

    I know this is only one play, but I like what Harris said here. He recognized the coverage pre-snap, knew who was supposed to be open, then as the play develops sees Dupre open out of the corner of his eye when he clearly wasn't his first option. Just underthrew him. If he keeps making the correct reads, these passes will get completed more often than not.

    LSU ran only five offensive plays against McNeese, but one of them has kept sophomore wideout Malachi Dupre up at night.

    Dupre got open on a deep route on third-and-10 when McNeese State blew a coverage, but Harris was late to recognize it and underthrew him. Dupre said Harris went through his progression properly.

    “They played a coverage where he wasn’t supposed to be open,” Harris said. “Pre-snap, I knew he wasn’t going to be open. So I’m getting ready to check the ball down or extend the play, then out of my peripheral I see him running wide open.

    “Nine times out of 10, I’ll make that throw. That’s no problem of a throw for me.’

    Had the two sophomores connected for a 66-yard touchdown, it wouldn’t have counted because the game was canceled. That doesn’t stop Dupre from thinking about the score that could have been.

    “I know it wouldn’t have counted,” he said. “At the same time, it would have been gratifying for myself to know I scored a touchdown early in the game.”

    The one that should keep him up at night was his inability to hold a block thus allowing a 4 yard loss.

    That teaches them nothing. They have to have the ability to work through it. It takes games.

    Miles had his fucking chance last year for dancing the QB's.

    Just make a decision and go.

    More years than I want to count of poor QB development.

    I didn't realize you were a fan of how Miles uses his QBs. He rarely does QB rotation, he usually picks a guy and sticks with him. Sounds like yall are of like mind.

    And this year, Miles has chosen Harris, but some here don't seem to believe that, yet.
