    We should throw to the TE at least 5 times per game.

    I meant to remind you how you've forgotten Pee Wee with your comment that we hadn't thrown to a TE since 1992. I'm sure if Munoz and Dez feel confident with a sure handed TE, we'll see them involved in the passing game. I'm not that upset if they aren't, as long as our WR group is running routes that actually challenge coverage and give our QB good targets.

    Everyone keeps saying he wasn't in the right kind of offense at LSU. It doesn't matter what kind of offense he was in, he couldn't hit guys 4 yards in front of him. And UL hasn't had a passing offense worth a darn in the last couple of years. Give him slants, screens, or whatever else you want but he can't hit receivers.
    I'm betting you eat these words once the season rolls around.

    It was a facetious remark.
    I was highlighting the fact that we completely wasted Larry Pettis and many other good TEs. If a year when you'd figure we needed a security blanket more than ever, we didn't utilize the position at all.

But if JD or anyone else can beat him out of the starting role... they've done something pretty special... and we fans should reap the benefits.
    Last season, Haack did not have the protection nor the offense that fit his skill set. And, IMHO, Jalen lacked the right amount of comfort that slows the game down to where he could relax and make good decisions and execute. His mechanics throwing the ball always looked a bit rushed/anxious in the games. He would probably do a better job this season with the experience he gained last season, which is why I'm so happy we were able to pick up AJ. I was worried that if we started poorly and QB play was a factor in the poor start, Jalen would end up moving back to QB and the whole merry go-round starts again.

    You need to start using emoticons. I tend to run my entire day by what you post on RP. If you don't let me know when you're being facetious, I could end up on the wrong side of right all day long. (place emoticon here that has bulging eyes and look of desperate confusion)

    I'm one of the last holdouts on the anti-emoticon movement..

    It was a noble cause.. Once..

    Agree wholeheartedly on this point! But, its a common problem in most programs. TE's usually end up being the 3rd or 4th read in most passing plays unless they have a difference maker. PEE WEE was a hybrid TE and a difference maker. I hope we mix it up more this year.

    Interesting.. Stanford, Alabama, Florida.. In their hayday utilized the TE more than most schools. I'm a HUGE fan of this style offense (though it is more of a pro style). I thought we've had quality athletes at tight end for 10 years. Quality enough to use them more. I hope Munoz does it in 2016.
