If you assume(a) Lee's and Mett's playbooks are identical, and (b) their execution over the course of the season will be identical... why wouldn't you prefer to play the QB who has 2+ years of eligibility left versus the QB with less than one?

NOTE: I pose the question only to hear folk's opinions. Barring injury, I am sure Lee will be the QB for the rest of the year whether everyone likes it or not.

because the one who has been here for 4 years has more experience then the one who is just starting here.

Since we can go 10-2 just running the ball, I would play the guy coming back next year. Actually helps out for recruiting when recruits know the starting QB is returning.

If their execution would be identical, there would be no reason to have a debate.

So what you're saying is a senior qb should never start over a junior, and the starter should be based on how many years they have to play.

Lee has more game experience, has been through a gauntlet during his time at LSU and stuck it all out like a champ! He has earned his starts

More comfortable with a 5th year senior than a guy who has only played a half of D1 football before. Leadership takes longer to learn than skill does. Mett will be good but I'm not ready to throw it to him yet. Not unless we have to.

Yet another new thread about yet another hypothetical scenario involving LSU QBs that popped into yet another rantard's head.

Let's see how many more threads we can start today about hypothetical scenarios involving Lee and Mett.

The Rant is full of awesome today.

Why would you do that?
Is it to gain experience?

So is experience important, or not?

Are we also "assuming" that Mett has the same (or better) ability to read SEC defenses at NCAA Division I gamespeed as Lee does?

can we please just fricking STOP. JL is our quarterback, he will be our quarterback until he is no longer our quarterback. Thats it. End of Story. We dont need 20 threads a day saying the same shite over and over.

because give Mett one more year to learn, and he only needs to play 1 year to win a NC.
