Name one QB in the miles era that that lsu has recruited, signed out of high school, and developed into a good QB.

This BooBooBengal can't think of one, but there is a laundry list of guys that have been busts.

Jarrett Lee and Jordan Jefferson made NFL rosters. We're spoiled, quit bitching.

Well here are your available names:
Ryan Perrilloux
Jarrett Lee
Jordan Jefferson
(Mett was JUCO, and can't say for sure on Jennings or Harris obviously)
So looking at that, you have 3 guys that didn't pan out. This isn't some laundry list of guys, it's 3. And most people are well aware that LSU had Perrilloux going in the direction of being the best qb in the country, but he just couldn't stay out of trouble. In reality, you only have 2 guys (Jefferson and Lee) that LSU just seemed to not be able to develop. And I put half that blame on the players anyway. So calm down.

quote:

2005-07 - Miles did not recruit these QBs, therefore these 3 years are excluded from the 10 years of Miles's tenure. 

2012-13 - Miles did not recruit Mett out of high school, therefore these 2 years are excluded from the 10 years of Miles's tenure. 

2008-2009; 2014 - The QBs playing in these years were second-year players but starting for the first time, and did not have adequate time to develop. 

2011 - Both LSU QBs were at the top of the SEC in passing efficiency. 

So in the remaining 1 year, Miles failed to develop a QB he recruited from high school into a competent SEC QB.

So, if LSU recurits 4 star QBs (Lee, Jefferson, Jennings), it's TOTALLY the coaching staff's responsibility of how they develop and play on the field ?????? The players themselves don't have to lift a finger ???????????
Seems to me Matt Flynn did pretty well in his senior year - just a national championship, that's all. Ditto Mettenberger.
Ohhhh, sorry, Flynn and Mettenberger weren't RECRUITED OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL BY THE CURRENT COACHING STAFF. I guess, like, they don't count.


And if LSU recruits a 5 star QB (Harris), it's up to the coaches only on how he plays. It's not up to the player at all I guess....

I'll never understand why someone creates an "alt" to post threads.

Lee and Jefferson were good QBs in 2011. They were arguably better than any other starting SEC QBs in 2011.

In 2011 SEC regular season games, Jefferson and Lee had higher QB ratings than any other starting SEC QB. They were also the top two in the SEC for YPA. They were #2 and #3 in the SEC for Comp%.

Lee was selected to play in two All-Star bowls, and he played with the San Diego Chargers through the 2012 preseason. Last year, Lee signed with the British Columbia Lions but was released a couple of months later.

Jefferson was selected to attend the NFL combine where he performed exceptionally well. Although Jefferson had the lowest grade prior to the 2012 NFL Combine, Jefferson was the only QB to finish among the top five QBs in each event. Among the quarterbacks, Jefferson finished first in the 20 yard shuttle, tied for first in the bench press, and finished third in the 40 yard dash and the vertical jump. Tampa Bay signed Jefferson to a contract, but he was waived four days later so that Tampa Bay could have a replacement for Da'Quan Bowers, a projected starter who suffered a probable season-ending injury. Jefferson remained a professional QB as of last year.
