    It remains that Harris was given a starting opportunity and he looked horrible and I don't understand why you can just overlook that. Starting Harris is not a slam-dunk guaranteed win.

    You keep ignoring that AJ does not even complete 50% which is beyond mediocre. You keep ignoring how AJ has had SEVERAL starts where he has bombed. I get you feel it's blasphemy to question your HC. Harris has done a better job with his time than AJ has. Not sure how your or Miles does not see that?

    Harris has only two losses, both to top-10 teams that may end up in the final four. He also beat a top-10 team. LSU is ranked #17. Sorry if I don't think this constitutes "bombing".

    Nothing at all about blasphemy, you made that up. I can see that Les is going with a more experienced and steady quarterback. Not sure why you can't see this. Les and Cam recruited Harris, gave him an opportunity to start, and see him in practice each day. If Harris was ready he would be playing.

    That's my whole point that you guys are missing.......all I'm saying is give Harris 3 to 4 series every game let him runn a balanced offense and see who is the best fit for this offense. Never once did I say Jennings should not Start all I have ever said is give both guys opportunities to earn that starting role......jennings has gotten every opportunity...harris has not.

    Actually guys go back and look at the offensive rankings of the ravens when cam was the cordinator......you will be shocked at how high they ranked every year......when there was rumors of hiring cam I pulled his stats...they were surprisinly very very good, i want to say he was in the top 10 every year except one and in the top 5 multiple years. Look it up.

    This is where I get confused. You say that Harris isn't ready to play yet if Jennings is injured he will go in. If he's not ready to play why is he the #2. How hard can it be to hand off the ball. It's not like we're asking our qb to throw it 50 times per game. Besides at LSU Jennings wouldn't start anywhere else in the SEC.

    When you are good and doing a good job you don't get fired.

    I know lots of people that got fired that were doing a good job. There are alot of reasons to get fired outside of "being good".
