If Cam had come to LSU he wouldn't have played ahead of Jefferson.

I think Miles has somekind of loyalty to players that have been in the system for a while. It is almost like he thinks they have payed their dues and earned the right to play and the younger guys have not.

Most other coaches will play your arse the day you arrive on campus if you are the best man for the job and miles doesn't do that.

The one thing that may make Mett successful is that MIles has no choice but to play him and stick with him.

He would have started Cam over Jefferson because Cam's skill set is similar to JJ's, except light years ahead.

plenty of underclassman have passed up older guys on the depth chart. However, it has yet to happen at the QB position.

The short side option may have actually worked with Cammy Cam.

Definitely used to be like that. Not so much the last couple of years. Jefferson was just a retarded man-love issue.

We had like 18 freshmen receive legitimate playing time throughout the 2010 season, and we were young as frick last season.

So...I don't get it. I think Les had a weird bias towards Jefferson, but outside of Keiland Williams getting screwed, he does agood job at letting underclassmen play.

It was like that until Chavis showed up. Whenever Chavis got to LSU, younger guys started getting their due.

I would say that Jefferson has dirt on the program that he threatened to reveal if he didn't get to play....but who the frick would pay that shite head?

I think Miles was just infatuated with him for some reason. It was like he thought that Jefferson had the ability to be great and was just waiting on the light to come on.

No one was starting over JJ under Les. No one. If JJ was still here, Mett would not see the field.

Cam and Brady could make a child together and he would sit behind JJ under Les.

Well, in fairness I think we should make sure its clear that JJ started the Superman celebration (worthy of 1st string IMHO).

Les Miles is top-2 coach in the country, except for when he wasn't just a couple years ago and half the fanbase wanted him fired (the same half that now faps to his gifs).

Scoop is a pretty good troll. Surprised at the Tigah fans who haven't figured that out yet.

Oh, and the OP is idiotic on many levels.

Did you see the Ole Miss 2009 game? 2010 Tenn? Yeah, the skeptical fans were way out of line.

take and long deep breath and ask yourself if agreeing with bamascoop is really worth it.
