1. Zach Mettenberger - this is not even debatable. I will always question why we didn't have him starting from day 1 on the team.
2. Jordan Jefferson - gets way too much hate for essentially one game. His contributions to LSU's success is overshadowed by great defenses and special teams. If it wasn't for his play in the "game of the century", LSU likely loses that game. He was also fast as hell for a guy his size.
3. Jarrett Lee - good not great quarterback. Could become a turnover machine at times, especially against Alabama. Showed great leadership and played his best when LSU had the lead. Also overshadowed by great defenses/special teams.
4. Jennings- obviously he can still move up this list but he hasn't shown much that would put him much higher than three. His 99 drive in the Arkansas game was historic and he played good enough to win against Alabama last season which says a lot about his poise in big games. However, he will need to make fewer mistakes and work on his intermediate passing game to really advance.
5. Harris - I think he has the potential to end up #1 on this list if he lights it up this season. He looked so raw last season but we got plenty of flashes of what could be (Mississippi State game). The Auburn start was what you'd expect in a true freshman's first start on the road.
Whatcha got?

Really angry at Ryan P. If he doesn't get kicked off we could groom
JJ/JL. Might not have made a difference, but you never know. Having JJ/JL and still going to the NC is impressive. I know the defense was one of the best in history. Makes me sad that we couldn't have a dominant defense in '13. Would have been the most amazing team.
13 offense with 11 defense gives me a tiger boner.

2. Lee -- without his consistent play in 2011 we aren't undefeated going into the Bama game.
3. Harris -- calling it now, he will be good.
4. Jefferson -- played in a title, but Bama's ability to stop the run was going to make us lose likely no matter who played
5. Jennings. He can still improve but this is where he is now.

The rest doesn't really matter because pretty much every other QB fricking sucks. However, I'm confident Brandon Harris and Felipe Franks will be on this list eventually.

When the light goes n for Harris look out.
Mett gave us great play his senior year.
Jefferson was way under appreciated by much of the fan base.
Look for Jennings to turn it on this season if Cam gives him the green light.
Lee was one of the top QB's in the SEC his senior season but just tended to get rattled against the most aggressive defenses.

2. JX. Both QB's are forever tied together in LSU lore. Any attempt to break them up and... you know the rest.

I'm curious why Jerrie is never mentioned? He beat the rat (spurrier) at home when said (rat's) team was número uno?
I know signing a contract with the manager of th WWE is taboo; but c'mon

he, along with Jefferson, were two of the best in the SEC that season. Between him and Jefferson we really had a duo at QB that was tough for defenses to game plan for. Would be great if Jennings and Harris could give us that much from the QB position this coming season. Harris is a lot like Jefferson, dangerous runner with a strong arm and Jennings is the more experienced incumbent, similar to Lee. I think the ceiling for Harris and Jennings is even higher than Jefferson/Lee however.

No offense to the OP, but this is like asking somebody to list their favorite traffic tickets. Glutton for punishment, I'd say.
