Jordan Jefferson is a 20 year old young man.
Les Miles has his, and the team's best interests in mind at all times.
How come so many of you do not understand this?
Les starts JJ in order to keep his confidence up. Benching JJ will damage the kid and the team.
What if he starts Lee and Lee reverts back to his Pick 6 ways or gets injured and cant' play?
We can't go back to JJ. JJ's confidence will be shot.
How come some of you people can't understand this?
Les is trying to manage his QB situation and win the SEC.
Come on people.

This isn't peewee football dude...If you're not producing, you sit on the bench. As a college football player you should know this by now.

Why does he have to play to keep his confidence up? Jarrett lee rode the pine and it made him better

If you were watching another team in the SEC do this, you would laugh your arse off at them.

How do Lee, T-Bob, or Eugene keep playing then. They have all been starters who were replaced. You think sending JJ out there to go 3/10 w/ 2 ints is keeping his confidence up?

You said it right. JJ is a 20 year old man and if you cant get it done you sit the bench. Jarrett Lee has been put into that same situation and what he did was come back with even more confidence. Why can’t you understand that?

so if we bench JJ and Lee gets hurt, JJ would come into the game and play worse than he has?

Give me one example of this happening anywhere else in major college football. He may be young, but he should know what he signed up for. If he isn't the best then he shouldn't play.

I remember when I was 20 years old. Gerry Dinardo didn't start me at QB for LSU and I was furious. I sure wish he would have been worried about my self esteem and well being. I'm certain I could have had 4 yards of total offense vs. McNeese.

LEEEEEE!!!

sorry, but his method at keeping the "kid's" confidence up is failing......as he continues to fail under fire, his confidence erodes further.
the team shouldn't have to pay the babysitting tab for someone not fit psychologically to be an SEC QB.
disclaimer: IF, in fact, this is what Les is doing......
I actually think there is some thought to insulating JL with a 2 QB system. Helps shield him from the jitters.

Like benching Lee did? And I'm not so sure it would hurt the team, according to performance.

We lose the entire game, instead of just half of it.

i would say if jefferson is benched for lee and has to come back in later because of injury or mishap he should be expected to handle it exactly like lee has and not sit over on the bench and pout about it if miles is worried about that then that tells me jefferson has no business playing for a big time program period.

So what you're saying is we should keep our best players on the bench in order to keep the scrubs from getting their feelings hurt? Yeah, now it makes sense to me...

Les is more concerned with pacifying his pets and proving to the detractors that starting JJ was the right move than he is with winning.

As I said in another post, this happened two years ago to a RS freshman. It’s a pretty irrelevant stat now. He has shown he has improved and grown.

Kind of contradicted yourself here. He needs to realize, just like JL does now, that he is not “the man” right now. He is part of the team. He needs to do what is best for the team. That is all you hear from JL in his interviews is he will do whatever helps the team win. If JJ takes the same thought process, then he should be fine. After all you said he was a 20 year old man. Then time to man up and play effectively or man up and play your role as backup.
