I don't know what is going on, but that was kind of the direction I was leaning towards. I was thinking they are only being silent to actually protect the players. I really feel strongly that CLM has made the decisions he has made for a good reason, reasons that the public may not need to know. I'm proud of this team this season & I am looking forward to next year! Geaux Tigers!
If you have a quarterback that you will not play when he might be needed, then he shouldn't even be suited up. Miles keeping his mouth shut to protect Lee may be admirable, but putting the team in jeopardy is not.
I tend to agree. Les' high-paying job is to win championships. First, last, and always. He has no higher priority.
I disagree. If the threat of another quarterback entering the game means your opponent has to take time out of their preparation for your starter to focus a little on your backup, then I see no problem with him being suited up, even if there is no chance in hell he is coming in.
I don't believe Alabama planned for Lee, Mett, or any other QB. Miles showed his hand after the first game and EVERYBODY knew it was going to be 100% Jefferson. We made it VERY easy for Alabama's defense as it didn't take a genius to slow down JJ. Other teams could've/would've dne the same thing but we had far too much talent for Arkansas, Georgia, etc. to do it. Alabama had the talent and we played right into their hands. I expressed my displeasure with this for the past two months but many here thought JJ was awesome. I didn't get it and still don't. As a result we still have two crystal balls instead of three. Alabama must be selling their soul to the devil. They play two BCS championship games and...Texas loses their starting QB early which cost them the game; LSU doesn't lose their starting QB which cost them the game.
You bring up an excellent point, and I agree. I think everyone pretty much knew short of Dre' Kirkpatrick pulling out his gat and blasting JJ, that he wasn't coming out of that game.
Several fans here were worried but everytime the subject came up, those who didn't bow down the greatness of Jordan Jefferson were ganged up on... some even hinted that those people were just being racist. JJ gives us the best chance to win... blah... blah... blah... Those people have been AWOL since the game.
