Hudspeth seems conflicted on Cajun QB call

[NewsCopy]

He’s leaning more toward one, suggesting Brooks Haack probably will make a second straight start at quarterback when UL visits South Alabama for an ESPNU-televised game Thursday night in Mobile.

Even as Mark Hudspeth explained his latest thinking on the matter, though, the Ragin’ Cajuns coach really does seem quite conflicted on the call.

"I think (Nixon) helps (running back) Eli (McGuire) when he's in the game, because it takes a little bit of pressure off of Eli, because now they've got to stop two guys that can run the ball."

Yikes!

Omg he was serious..

You know what helps Eli? Using his skill set properly.. Good hell.

I think he has some brain disease he picked up on a tropical vacation. No one can be this thick.

How does having a QB in the game that allows the opposing team to stack the box with impunity help your RB? Especially one that thrives in SPACE. Man this is a frustrating season.

You just made it clear to me...it's a tropical brain disease.

Lol! Coach make sure you put Nixon in when we have momentum! We wouldn't want to dominate an opponent. That'd be mean!

Inserting Nixon on the 3rd series reminded me of something Marty used to do. Our team would be on a run and Marty would call a Time Out to "COACH." I think overall he was a really good coach, but this one thing aggravated the hell out of me and some others.

Momentum Killer.

I think Hud's tight shirts are cutting off the circulation to his brain. Someone get him a big boy shirt so he can pass down his Baby Gap shirt to one of his sons.

This is exactly right! I had forgotten about that. "whoa we sure are scoring a lot. Let's talk about this a little"
