re: When is the last time LSU lost HC?

Quote: "like when Ole Miss beat Mississippi State in 2013"

Exactly, Rebs and Gumps would do better to focus on their in-state rivals.
Quote: "He's not a runner, so it wont be too big of a deal if its his right leg. QBs really struggle with left ACLs, though."

True. Put a prosthetic on him and he'll be good to go. No problem.
Quote: is this supposed to mean something about talent or potential or is this just a stupid bama flame?

The latter, and gump insecurities.
Quote: too many unknowns at this point

Yes, and of course hindsight is impeccable. Many of the speculations here are sprinkled with fairy dust. Let the guys who are well paid for their expertise make their decisions. Matchups and game plans . . . take your best shot, you'll never be happy unless you prove there's homer heaven.
Quote: "Were you not around during the Crowton years up to Studrawa? This is the only reason i think that miles MIGHT want to control the offense. Again, maybe Les decided he wanted to run the show during those years, because the OC's weren't getting the job done. And that's fine."

Actually, I don't rule out this interpretation at all. It's not uncommon for people to resist admitting that a decision made (e.g.,Crowton, Stud) was a bad one. Miles has been criticized for vacillating on players, coaches, and obviously in game management. But I think he's very comfortable with Cameron's performance at this point. He's got the right guy now and will let him run the offense, as I see it.

I also don't see Rettig as out of the picture. It's entirely possible we will see more than one QB taking snaps in a game, depending on the situation.
Quote: "Another COMMON use of irony is: "a situation that is strange or funny because things happen in a way that seems to be the opposite of what you expected". I won't go into detail explaining the IRONY in the situation that the OP described, because I think it would be a waste of my time."

You won't go into detail 'cause it isn't ironic. Weasel behavior is exactly what is expected from Saban. Hence, no irony involved.

The comments in this post are totally unsurprising and hardly ironic. Saban's position is self-serving as are most of the comments here. No irony. Irony would be Saban advocating a position that head coaches be required to be 6ft tall.
I think Mett has a stronger arm, but not as quick a release as Harris, though Harris will get stronger.

Big questions about whether Harris has accuracy and decision-making at this stage.

I honestly don't understand why Jennings seems to be a non-issue with some of you. He has more experience and by all accounts is smart, plus he will have an experienced line and LF in the backfield. Don't write off Jennings. Kid's got a lot of poise.
Quote: He did against Kentucky with the 2-3 Zone.

But it won't work at Kentucky this time. And who has it been really effective against since then? It was a good surprise move against Kentucky since they don't have great outside shooting.

Our bench is the issue, especially since Morgan is out. JJ seems to go to zone to rest players. But Hickey and Stringer lack the height and length to be effective in a 2-3 zone. I would rather experiment with a 1-3-1 when he wants to rest players. Quarterman-(Mickey-Martin-JOB)-Odo (to take fouls). The rest of the time when Hickey and Stringer are in we should play man to man and press on occasion.

re: Coaching changes...same results

Quote: Exactly what "proven" coach would you expect to come to LSU?

That's true, and exactly what "elite" players would you expect to come to LSU?

JJ is recruiting talent. I have many questions as to why this team has underperformed, but JJ, barring some scandal or complete program collapse, will get two more years.
There are any number of reasons to be disappointed.

My take on yesterday's game is we were worn out at the end. Thought JOB was about to collapse from exhaustion. Especially with Morgan out, we have no bench. It's been puzzling at times why JJ switches to zone when man to man is working. I think he is trying to give his players a rest.

Talk about whether JJ is or isn't a "great" recruiter is pointless. He's bringing in talent. Why would an "elite" player want to play for LSU when they have offers from "elite" schools. Most of these youngsters could care less about our 2006 appearance in the Final Four. That was nearly 8 years ago.

re: Nick Saban is a coward

coachcrisp, no need to lecture. If it hadn't been for LSU, the gumps would never have found Saban. You've got a great coach. But stop all the hokum; he's doing the job you pay him to do. Stop kneeling and kissing his ring. Some people believe the guy is glib and pretentious with all his talk about the "process." Who cares? Gumps are still gumps, and no one wants to visit Alabama anyway.
I hope he's the next Fran Tarkenton, but I doubt he's got Fran's smarts or the maturity he had. Kid's got to grow up fast now. Bad thumb or no, he was humiliated by an average defense when he played LSU this year.
Well, you're simpletons and don't understand a visual metaphor. He was great in college. But I wonder how the NFL players feel about Aggie arrogance. Let him float his balloons. Talk is cheap.

re: Nick Saban is a coward

Geez, I'm almost feeling bad for Nick. Stop deifying the dude. Lots of sour grapes. The guy is a great college football coach and very human. This is not a man whose job is to make you feel life is fair because he coaches a bunch of man-boys to get territorial over 100 yards.
