Throw him in there; that sounds reasonable to you people?

Let's see, we have two QBs that got thrown in there way to soon, by necessity, and both of them are struggling so instead of having patience we should just ruin another one?

And if his confidence gets shot like the other two should we take the red shirt off of Zach Lee and ruin him too?

Hey Ruben Randall played QB for a year in high school, maybe he’s the answer, and so on and so on and so on….

I am sadly convinced that we have surpassed the gumps as the most STUPID fan base in the nation.

Congratulations!

I wish people would shut up about this. Garrett is not ready. As bad as Jeff and Lee looked at the spring game, Garrett looked worse. All four of his passes were off target. He looked like a young qb whose not ready yet and in his defense that is exactly what he should look like at this moment in his carreer.

I'm all for giving the kid some mop up duty so he can get some experience and if he really, really shines, then maybe give him a couple of semi meaningful possessions to see what he can do with them. But people who expect him to be better than Lee and Jeff against SEC defenses are crazy/retarded.

This goes back a ways.

When Booty was here, folk wanted Rohan. When Mauck was healthy in 2002, some folk were even wanting Randall in. When Randall became the starter, folk wanted JR. When JR was the starter, there were folk who wanted Flynn in. When Flynn was started, some even wanted RP in the game.

There will always be LSU fans who think the backups can do it better.

I don't like any of our options at QB, to be honest. That said, to say Garrett looked worse is not fair.

JL's passes were by far the sharpest, except when they were being returned for pick sixes.

JJ looked clueless as usual most of the time.

CG was merely TBD given his limited snaps. That pass across field to RS at the goal line was pretty good. At least he put it where only RS could get it.

I've been so frustrated with JJ that I've been inclined to just say let CG play and take his lumps. At least let him play some series here and there in the first few games.

But, in general, we are poopoo'd at the QB position for 2010.
