Jefferson did not put up 31 against Washington LSU as a team did. Remember Cutera INT return for TD. Same with Mississippi State (Peterson INT), so like I said number lie. All depends on how you want to use them.

We are talking about this year not last year. This year he has sucked. You cant even argue that. This year he has put up 30 on 1 BCS school Washington. Washington is not that good. Jefferson has gotten worse as the season has gone on. Why not see what Lee can do this year. How do you know he hasnt made vast improvements over the off season?

Lee isnt airing it out to the endzone but atleast he can lead a drive passing wise when the defense is not in prevent. Lee showed he can throw the deep ball last year. He should have had 2 40+ yard TD's against Bama's defense last year. The first one Byrd caught but the second went right trough Mitchell's hands.

Really? You went to all the offseason practices and saw he was still making the same mistakes as a freshman? Jefferson has made plenty of mistakes and cost us the Florida game. It doesnt matter what his fricking age is, as a redshirt you dont spend alot of time studying the playbook, you study alot of opponents film to imitate them at practice. You've seen Lee play enough this year to know he is still making freshman mistakes? Brilliant statement right there.

Not necessarily, Miles has been proven to be hard headed. Jefferson should have started the Troy game but Miles didnt want to change QB's. Miles doesnt like to be wrong and admit to making mistakes. If Lee comes in and tears it up Miles will look like a fool for not playing him.

Wait, so your evidence that Lee can throw the deep ball is the Alabama game? The game where the Alabama safety had like 3 interceptions, including one returned for a touchdown and one in OT?

I bet what Miles doesn't want is to exacerbate whatever QB problem we have by constantly flip-flopping starting QBs, destroying each QB's confidence and setting up neither for success. If you attribute Miles's actions to his ego, then I will promise you that his ego is most satisfied by winning.
