Desormeaux has made a decision on his starting QB.

It's not though. It's def not apples and oranges. At worst, it's oranges and tangerines. Don't pee on my fruit bowl and tell me it's Rainman66. LoL

Golf clap.

I don't care who the starting QB is. Both Ben and Chandler have starting experience. As long as either of them win games for us and keep us in contention, I'll be happy.

YES !!!!!!!!

LETS GEAUX !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It’s a shame that here on RP where you’d think are the biggest Cajun fans and supporters, is where we’re going to blow a comment out of proportion and start ____ about our own coach. This comment was not a slap in anyone’s face or a pointed towards any particular group. He’s sayin team decisions are exactly that.

Most head coaches say every position is up for grabs in the fall, as they should be. Competition makes everyone better. So the fact there was a so called qb battle again might not even be the case. But if Des went into camp with an idea and then the backup totally outperformed then he would probably change his mind. So the starters aren’t starters till they start. Why does that need to be decided or released before the game?( or depth chart release game week) I’m sure Des is just tired of hearing the question. I come on rp frequently and the majority of the comments on this thread ____ me off.

DES was hired and paid to win football games.
Critics come with the territory of being a head football coach at a FBS D1 university that is not far removed from SBC titles, bowl wins, and national rankings that has gone into two losing seasons.
Sorry if that offends you.
Hopefully this is the year Des gets us back to winning championships.

Heinz 57 and A1 sauce.

Des holding his cards to his vest is so darn refreshing. None of this "nanny, nanny, boo, boo, I know something you don't know" who knows the most cr@p going on.

Who knows, maybe he has grown as a D1 coach and wants to control his own fate. Less distractions, better focus.

The ONE thing CMD cannot do is the two QB system, that's a proven non starter, no pun intended.

I've stated ad nauseum that it doesn't matter who they go with. Neither is a guy that elevates the play on the field. It's all gonna come down to the O line. If we're solid there, all we need, whomever the starter is, to not make the big mistake. If that O line is good, we have the RB's in the stable to be good in the run game. And if our defense is as good as we think they may be. . . .we won't need a "great" QB. . . .just a guy to manage and don't try and be the hero.

But I will say this in wrapping up . . . and I'm in no way sticking up for JMV, but the same people upset what JMV does are defending Des for doing it. "Oh hey guys, I have some super secret info, but I can't tell you."

Silly. . . .the whole thing is silly.

Glad "the bird" hasn't chimed in

The man actually has a pulse. I was worried for two years.

I don't know if that was his intention, but it worked! LoL. Look how we're talking! I have high hopes this season. One thing we haven't brought into the discussion yet, is how good is the rest of the conference gonna be.
