& miles had no backup plan. the best he could was hatch, & a redshirt freshmen?
And that is my biggest problem with Miles
And what people don't understand is this (not having a back up to RP) is really more Saban's fault than Miles.
Saban recruited NO QBs in the 04' class and had none on the hook for the 05' class.
AND because Saban played his "I'm happy at LSU and will NOT be coaching at Miami" game LSU was late in starting/securing the next Head Coach.
Therefore, Miles, when he became that next head coach was WAAAAAAY behind in recruiting AND only had 15 0r 16 Scholarships to give.
Landing RP was considered a major accomplishment as he was the top QB in the nation at the time.
QBs don't grow on trees and Miles did not 'inherit' an ideal situation in that department.
The time bomb (RP) went off and 2008/2009 was the casualty of that explosion.
I'm not totally confident in JJ or JL at this point but I think they both have the potential and both deserve our RESPECT and patience.
Get behind them (and OUR Coach) and GEAUX TIGERS!

Miles had numerous recruiting seasons to bring in another highly rated QB.
USC and FL have top ranked QBs waiting in the wings. The nobody would come here because we had RP is BS.
Bottom line is that Miles did not properly look ahead in QB recruiting or that JJ and JL may not have been the eventual answer as he thought. Either way, it could be a player evaluation issue in talent or planning for the future.
JJ is our QB and we need to support him while hoping for the best.

quote:not reaching much much huh? so saban has to recruit a qb for miles for 4-5 years after he's gone? miles just finished his 6th class, & he has yet to recruit & develope a qb. sorry this ain't saban's fault.

quote:he announced on christmas day, bertman could have said you can't coach the bowl, & start interviewing asap.
