It's become painfully obvious that Les Miles is still having those 2008 nightmares. Instead of cutting Harris loose he is still managed. What percentage of his throws are deep balls? You'd think most of them correct, above 50 percent? That tells me the coaching staff still doesn't trust him and here we are after his 9th start and the staff still won't cut him loose, and probably never will. Les is still playing scared.
of course they dont trust him, we all seen this movie before, dont develop the QB enough to let him win games, let him manage the offense and ride the running game into the ground and when you have nothing else, run it some more.
See I gotta disagree, they should do this type of thing internally. If they have a problem they should go straight to the coaching staff, not air it out for the whole world to see.
That's the times we live in. Kids today will tweet anything or post it on Facebook without even thinking about it. Everybody's got a smart phone with a camera and a Twitter and Facebook account. Everything is instant. I'm not saying that what Dural and Dupree and probably lots of their teammates are thinking, it's just that they don't consider the ramifications before they post. When I was in school I had to carry change to be able to use a pay phone if I wanted to even talk to anybody. Find a pay phone and maybe even have to go inside a store to get change. Now it's think it---BOOM! Everybody in the world can instantly know the thoughts of a 19-20 year old kid.
Although I'm usually firmly against players doing things like this I'm still undecided on this one. Nothing has pushed Miles to adapt to today's game and make much needed changes. Anything that puts more pressure on him to revamp his stone age offense is a good thing at this point. However it's not a good sign when players start tweeting about their displeasure with how the staff is bungling the offense. Sounds like their losing faith which would be extremely rare on a 7-1 team. That in itself tells a lot.
Dural is a proven receiver. Dupree was the #1 recruit in the nation at the WR position. I don't know what Miles told them to get them to sign with LSU but what they are getting is not what they signed up for.
I think Odell Beckham Jr and Jarvis Landry should get some of the credit for the Tyron Johnson and Malachi Dupre signings.
