We are desperate for a QB. Why?

We have a major void of Quality QB performance. At LSU, we should never struggle this badly. Has Miles failed to sign the right player? Has he failed to properly develop them? Has he failed to game plan effectively with his QB talent? Any way you cut it he has failed and needs to be held accountable. The money he makes demands better performance than a starting QB who is 0 for 7 games in TD passes yet can fumble and throw interceptions. This is LSU, not some junk program.

One of Miles only weaknesses in recruiting the QB position. No one good since RP. His OC should help with QB recruiting but doesn't.

RP was rightfully kicked off the team.
Z. Lee signed with the Dodgers(can't really blame a kid for that).
JJ and JL just haven't been developed(coach's fault but also they are ELITE QBs).
Hopefully Mett signs with us and Rivers gets a couple of years to learn. That should shore up the QB situation for a few seasons.

we arent desperate according to Miles. he likes the skillset and the competition of each QB. he enjoys their improvement

it's really pretty simple if you think about it.
Louisiana hasn't produced shite at the position since RP. LSU, like all schools, heavily relies on in state talent. pulling bigtime oos qb talent is very difficult. who was the last Louisiana bred qb to start, much less star, at qb in the nfl? JJ was the top rated Louisiana qb when he graduated....JL was a top 5 Texas qb when he graduated...Zach Lee was a top 5 Texas qb when he graduated...and Chris Garrett was a highly rated Mississippi qb when he graduated. Miles' biggest get,RP, destroyed the qb progression at LSU. hopefully Mettenberger and Rivers can rebuild the positions strength but what really is needed is for Louisiana to start producing bigtime talent on it's own.

This problem dates back for a long time.
When was the last time LSU has had a long-term sure fire deal at QB?
Herb Tyler was the last 3+ year starter. After that, we had the Booty/Davey/Nall rotation for 2 years, followed by a year of Davey. Then, Mauck (statistically a poor QB in 2002) for half a year, followed by Randall and CLAUSEN.
Then a year of Mauck.
Then, Randall and JR for a year of inconsistency.
Then JR for a year.
Then Flynn for a year.
Then Hatch/Lee/JJ for a year of inconsistency.
JJ is the longest-term starter since Herb, I believe.
Why does LSU have a long-term history of not being able to keep QBs around?

Our qb situation would not be this terrible had RP never been kicked off the team. I am not a huge Miles fan but he knew that kicking RP off the team would set him back at the QB position and he made the tough decision any way.Had RP stayed jj and jl would have both been given the chance to mature and i do not believe we would be having this conversation. And z. lee left for the money cannot blame miles for that one.

For the love of god, it would matter if we had Tim Tebow, the coaching is the problem. Lee has been here since 2007, JJ since 2008. Neither has gotten better. RS has been here for two years and he still can't read the playbook to throw a pass.
I guess all three are dumb and this has nothing to do with Crowton or Les.
