How does an "elite" program get itself into a 4 year JJ/JL mess?

I realize RP accounted for the first year (or two?), but who was the heir apparent after RP? Why did we not seek a transfer player or JUCO? Why did we just ride this lame fricking rollercoaster for 4 years?
Both JJ and JL were obviously not SEC caliber QB's (each had their moments, but the body of work of both players is subpar to put it mildly).
This 4 year saga was sort of a microcosm of Monday night's game, we didnt do or try anything to change it, we just rode it out hoping it would somehow correct itself.

Now this is a legitimate criticism of CLM IMO

Ask Mack Brown.

Lee and JJ were highly rated QB's. Just never panned out. Lost confidence early maybe....

no one was starting over JJ if he was healthy
I can't explain it either

JL was imo. He was one of the highest rated qb's out of texas. Wasn't he one of the players on the cover of sports mag (issustrated maybe?)? He just got thrown in before he was ready and then you have a love affair between a coach and player.

I have wondered that for a couple years.One answer,,,LES MILES!!

Hindsight is 20/20...I'm sure going into it the coaches thought they would improve. Now why they stuck with either of them when it wasn't working boggles my mind.

That's the million dollar question.
Why do you think people assumed JJ had pictures on Les. It's unimaginable.
Exactly how I felt about the Saints with Brooks.
Why did Haslett not see what everyone else saw?

Well to be honest, year 4 was a perfect year to insert the newly recruited "top rated JUCO qb in the country".

I blame Andrew Hatch

Poor talent evaluation and blind allegiance.

Well, lsu got a highly regarded JUCO transfer who was sitting there on the bench all year with no meaningful playing time. He was quickly declared 3rd string in the spring.
LSU also had a QB from Mississippi who left after a year or two. Forget his name.
JJ and JL like someone said were highly regarded QBs.
The great Hatch left.
It really has been a strange and sad few years for the QB position at LSU.

Don't forget Hatch and Zach Lee

We have a head coach with no vision, no long term plan, and no foresight to anticipate things. He coaches 'off the cuff', is reactionary, and has a rigid belief system.

Ryan Perrilloux is the reason for LSU being stuck with no quarterback..!!!
Posted on 1/12/12 at 1:14 pm to Frankie Knuckles
We went a couple years after the RP experiment without making sure to sign a QB. All we had left were JL/JJ. The past few years, we have made sure to have signed at least one QB in each class.

If RP had stayed Lee would have had more time to develop. If he hadnt been thrown into the fire so early on I think he would have been a good QB.
Still, a RS freshman and true freshman should have never been our back up plan at QB in the first place.
