Tomorrow's LSU spring game

Things I'd like to say-

Seriously cut with all the Lee hate. We get it. He threw 16 INT's last year. I hear people saying that they hope Lee fails out there, and I've even heard people say they would boo if Lee made a GOOD play. The more they say it, the more I think he will actually succeed. I'm a contrarian, you see.

It always happens that way. Last year, everybody was talking about how Matt Ryan would be a huge bust for the Falcons. The more they dissed him, the more I believed he would actually succeed, and guess what? He did.

Nothing in football is predictable. I also think Florida will not be as good as advertised this year. Gone unnoticed is the fact that their offensive coordinator/ genius QB coach Dan Mullen is gone, and Urban Meyer replaced him with, um, the offensive line coach. Everyone's saying "oh but Florida has too much talent", and that's exactly what people said about LSU's defense last year when we hired from within.

Anyways, back to the spring game. I'm not cheering particularly hard for Lee. Or for Jordan Jefferson. I will instead keep my eye on Russell Shepard, the kid I think will surprise everybody and snatch the starting job. This kid is like a freakish combo of Tim Tebow and Percy Harvin. He's lightning fast. He's a leader, too, far beyond his youth and inexperience.
