theTestament Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 Personally, I have no problem with someone not liking or disagreeing with a coaches decision. It's their personal choice. But, don't expect anyone to applaud or not criticize those comments. I believe coaches make mistakes all the time. But, it's most of the time it's in game type mistakes. In regards to players and personnel, I trust a coaches authority on those issues. Those guys see the players day in and day out and I would expect them to have a much greater knowledge on who should play and who shouldn't. I agree totally with you, coaches are only human and make mistakes all the time. You do not have to agree with me, and that is ok too. But what makes these boards fun and interesting is competitive banter. I was not making a personal remark about someone being gay, just trying to make the point that we will not all agree and that it is ok not to. I have some pretty different views on some things and I get it. Either way, i call a truce. Lets move on and all(even myself) try to be a little more open minded. Quote
Big T Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 Here we go again lol. Look if the guy who is out there is wearing a RED jersy with LAMAR written across the front SUPPORT HIM WITH YOUR WHOLE HEART! It doesn't matter what name ie written on the back of the jersy if it says LAMAR just support the guy. Andre and JJ are both good players and both have the ability to lead this game to victory. As long as that happens i don't care who it is. On a second note I have to point this out. Dionte Forney beat Doty and PNG two out of three times and looked better than Doty all three times they faced off. Just Saying. Quote

That's just that old bulldog love coming out in you Big .... ;) but I do give Forney credit for last years Ned vs Png game. He came to play that game. Quote
theTestament Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 My God!!!! You just do not GET IT!!! This has nothing and never did have anything to do with DOTY! Pay attention. Geeeeeesh! Quote
Guest CardAmbassador Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 I'm over the Doty stuff now, theTestament is done with it too. Let's move on. LU's got 3 quarterbacks, all three have something I'm impressed with. I would have to say JJ right now is the one I'm most impressed with though. I've gone back over alot of the articles and his stats are right there with or above the other two, I don't think he has had a single scrimmage where both the other guys beat him out. And he has had scrimmages where he was the best guy on the field. Alot is going to be answered Saturday, can't wait!!!! Go Big Red!! Looking forward to you're return to The Cage next week!! Quote

Agree, and yes, JJ is my vote also. I will see you at The Hill next week!! I like The Hill better. Quote
lu cards Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 i think we can all agree that doty would have been a nice p/u for lu.it didnt work out for whatever reason.my personal opinion is we were short on scholarships last year and had 6 qb's on the roster.really was no need to sign a qb.forney was signed as a qb but we all know that wasnt what lamar signed him for.it worked out great for doty and lamar cant sign every local kid that can play at this level.who knows maybe one day doty wants to come home and lu has a need at qb.i hope everyone supports whoever the starting qb ends up being.i really liked what prewitt did last year and still feel he gives us the best option to win this year.jj is our future.he's got all the skills to be great,time will tell if he is as good as i think.ill be honest i lost all my faith in bevil last year but he has the most experience and has the ability to be a good qb.i am 100% behind him this saturday but if he plays like he did the majority of the time last year he will be back at receiver.lastly these coaches want to keep there jobs.i dont think theres any preferential treatment.they gave all 3 a shot and made there decision.bottom line is we are deep at qb and can go to war with any of them.

05BigRed Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 Report just in....doty stated in an Oregon newspaper he plans on transferring back home to play for lamar! LOL..just kidding...glad you guys are working it out...now talk about qb controversy if that happened! Quote
Guest CardAmbassador Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 Looks like we may see rotating QBs: Andre Bevil will make a second straight start at quarterback. The senior will likely rotate with redshirt freshman Jeremy Johnson, offensive coordinator Todd Whitten said. Also, McVey will probably start at TE and Marcus Jackson looks to be completely healthy. Read more: http://www.beaumontenterprise.com/sports/lamar/article/WR-Jackson-ready-to-play-Saturday-2161747.php#ixzz1XPqdoZ6K Wow, McVey passes up Chavis and Hannah as a true freshmen, I knew that kid was good! Well I've only known it for about a week, but still, that's exciting to hear. As deep as we are at TE it's good to have a freshmen start, it means he's good and a hard worker. Quote
lu cards Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 i expect chavis to play a bunch this saturday.only concern i have is braden thomas isnt listed on the 2 deep. Quote
Guest CardAmbassador Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 i expect chavis to play a bunch this saturday.only concern i have is braden thomas isnt listed on the 2 deep. Cards did you see BR360's post? Apparently Braden was fine for the TC game but the coaches held him out because it wasn't worth the risk. I expect him to be in the line up. But I'm an optimist :laugh: Quote
lu cards Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 i read that but expected to see him listed.not sure if the 2 deep roster really means much because they have marcus jackson listed as second string.kendrick prejean looks to be healthy also. Quote
Guest bigred360 Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 i expect chavis to play a bunch this saturday.only concern i have is braden thomas isnt listed on the 2 deep. lu cards, I read he had a hamstring injury and they wanted to rest him last week. The only thing I can figure is it (injury) hasn't responded to treatment like they thought it would. Sorry to give out information untrue. Quote
