grayson88 LSU Fan Gainesville, FL Member since Jan 2004 1625 posts	Lee should have been pulled (Posted on 11/9/08 at 5:23 p.m.) Can anyone honestly say that lee should not have been pulled yesterday? I dont give a shite who is at backup Lee sucked yesterday. He was playing scared and needed to sit. Im not saying he has no future or that JJ would have won the game. But you have to sit your QB when he is playing that bad.

In favor of a true freshman who has never played in a game of that magnitude, sure... If you pull J Lee out of that game, he goes to the sidelines and loses what little confidence that he has at that point. Then, can you honestly put him back in the game, or any future game, for that matter???

But Lee did have a major part in losing the game yesterday. When your starter is playing that poorly you go to the backup. Maybe he plays worse or maybe better, you dont know.

You can give JJ a series and sit lee and let him catch his breath. Or at least go to a 2 qb system like they were running with hatch. I am getting worried that les wont be able to make the yough calls and fire/bench people when needed.

What happens if they pull Lee, and against all the vast wisdom of the rant (okay...not so vast) he looks like crap! I mean you people act like things like botched snaps, and bumbled handoffs never happen. It COULD have gotten WORSE with JJ, sorry, but I think LEE did get that team down the field to score another TD in the second half!! And was responsible for the 14 pts. in the first, too. But anyway, what IF JJ came in and stunk it up?? What do you have then? Lee's only going to feel like he's expected to come back in and play well when now the COACHES are as down on him as the retarded people wearing Purple and Gold who are booing our team IN TIGER STADIUM????????? yeah... that's a plan! he is what we have people! I'd like to have porche and take month long trips to Europe... But! I HAVE a honda and work at a hospital. You can't have what you just CAN NOT HAVE! be patient, would ya?

Big fricking deal, at least you tried something different when your starter wasn't working out. And Lee clearly wasn't working out in the first half and much of the second half.

But lee kept making a play here and there and the game was close so what were they going to do pull him and put a true freshman against the #1 team in the nation.

Yes there is a possibility that JJ comes in and plays worse, or he plays better. You dont know since he was not given a chance

I am NOT! Everyone that says "Lee isn't a freshman" 'cause he redshirted need to realize that this is what Lee has picked up after a YEAR!! How much do you really think JJ has picked up in 4 months???
