True. True... But, if he lights it up against Auburn, and we win.... fasten your seatbelts folks. We'll be right back in the thick of the division.
Brandon Harris was the best back up QB LSU has ever had. Let us hope he can do as well in the starting role. Expectations are much different. Ask Anthony Jennings.
I just hope if he struggles we switch him out with Jennings. Playing a young QB into the ground is terrible; ask Jefferson and Lee. Playing both is better than ruining both with head games.
We'll see how it works out but I think that barring injury Harris is our starter for this year and at least the next two.
I dont think people trashed Jennings. However, people take criticism on this site bad. Jennings was just awful the last two games. I have no reason to wish ANY LSU player play bad. However, Jennings has looked good at times and won LSU 4 games or 5 with the amazing win vs Ark... I wish they were all perfect. Though for me, I saw that Harris has the better arm and tools. Maybe he does have more mistakes starting as a freshman, but I think him playing now only sets LSU up to be better in the future faster than with Jennings.
Its been said that Harris didn't know the playbook well enough. I find that hard to believe after finding out that he has a 3.6 GPA and knowing the preparation he has put into learning the art of being a quarterback such as attending the Elite 11 camp and working with quarterback guru George Whitfield. He even seeks advice from other SEC QBs including longtime friend Dax Prescott
