Not completely true. Coaches knew Jake was best QB on team as a freshman. They simply hoped to redshirt him. When the 3 other guys threw 5 picks in the first half of Game 1 in 1993, they knew they had no choice but to play Jake. I am reading the book on Louie Cook right now. That is story Coach Cook relays in book.

Had Tyjuan Hayes not disappeared during that off season Jake would have probably red shirted. Danny Dipace and Jason Sanborn’s JC game didn’t translate to the 1A world.

A number of coaches on that staff were against signing Hayes because he was shorter than Brian Mitchell and he couldn't throw the football. He left for that reason, so Jake was going to get a chance to play with or without him based on what some of the staff thought of Hayes. Cook told Stokes if he wanted to keep his job, he would be better off playing Jake.

Yet, if we don’t have lose those 2 fumbles we win.

CF had the same amount of TD’s passing despite 62 less attempts. The same amount of rushing TD’s and the same amount of INTs. The yards per pass were less than a yard difference.

They are essentially the same QB. Acting like BW is some phenom, when he hasn’t shown to be one is silly. They are both decent QBs. I’d be willing to bet, both will have significant time this season.

………Think it was our 1st series of the bowl…..CF scrambles around looking great on the drive….the TD PASSin the back endzone was as good as in Cajun history…..ZC’s drive before the fumble was so good passing and running…choose your QB along with BW who is the coaches’ choice……gotta trust their opinion!

Ironic that this team is being discussed.

Our next home game 9/23 vs. Buffalo is Gridiron Alumni Reunion Weekend.

The 1993 team is being honored.

You are mistaking Reggie Hayes for Tyjuan. Reggie was short.

Which one won 7 straight intramural flag football titles after his varsity time was over?

[CajunNation]

To me it's not about Woolridge VS Fields, it's simply addressing why Wooldridge looked off at times Saturday night. I'm also on record now in saying the obvious, I don't believe Woolridge will get much better in his 5th season, but he can certainly execute better in this offense. We've already seen him play better last season before going down with an injury.

If Ben struggles badly going forward, I wouldn't be surprised if Fields is first off the bench in a game because of his experience. But, if there is a change this season because of injury or performance, then in my opinion we will see Chriss as the starter.

There is no QB controversy on this team.

... lesson learned.

I thought Tyjuan was a good QB. He would have fared much better in today's game.

You are correct, Hayes was tiny and should have been used in the same way at the time LSU had a little RB/WR that was used, and I don't remember his name. I never felt like Reggie Hayes should have lined up as a QB. He needed to catch the ball in space and make moves, he was very athletic and hard to catch and tackle, but size was a huge detriment to Reggie Hayes, that was not the issue with TyJuan Hayes or James Freeman, the other QB's that came after Jake.
