Jarrett Lee has always been LSU's best QB when wearing The Green Jersey - one of the best who ever practiced at LSU.

But, he is afraid of contact. He is not the same player at all when facing live competition.

And, yes, Lee does quit.
After every interception that he has thrown, he has quit on the play. He has never even tried to tackle a defender who intercepted his pass - NEVER! He is probably afraid of being blocked by some defensive lineman.

Part of Lee's problem is stupid play calling from the coaches.
Don't think you start a freshmens career in the SEC by calling a low percentage out pattern against a great defense. Still pisses me off.

Did you see him in his first game against Auburn? Touchdown pass to C. Mitchell and got absolutely destroyed as he threw it. Shut the frick up. I don't like reading about you fricking people calling a player a pussy. That's seriously uncalled for.

I'm not going to insult Jefferson or question his bravery. That's chicken shite. I will say that (since rankings were brought up in this thread previously) that being ranked 112th in total offense should be unacceptable. This isn't a case for Lee, but it sure is a case for some changes to be made. It can be a change of OC or QB, I really don't care. Last year was very disappointing for all who watched, with the supposed talent we had at skill positions as well as our HC saying the OL was amazing pre-season.

I don't mind Jefferson as QB, but I do mind if we look so unorganized that we can't execute any sort of game plan and look prepared in doing it. We have zero identity. If the OL was struggling, then we should have adjusted mid-season. If Miles says (and I believe it was quoted) that Lee has closed the gap between Jefferson and himself, then great. I love competition and it should bring out the best in players. No position should be safe. They need to prove themselves in the UNC/Vandy games. If the starters can't get it done, then Lee deserves his shot if the coaches think he's ready.
