re: Notes from Miles on the team.

I'm not convinced that JJ will be head and shoulders improved from last year (though I DO think Krags will make a difference).

I'm also not convinced that Mett is so far ahead of JJ at this point in time that starting him against Oregon would be in the team's best interest. We've seen in vivid detail what starting someone before they're ready can do to a QB. I have more faith in Krags to develop QB talent than I did in GC, but I can understand what might be CLM's unwillingness to throw young talent in at QB until they've had a little more time in the system.

That said, I'm also unconvinced that CLM will treat this season the same as last season...meaning that if JJ stinks up the place he'll be content to let other QBs sit the bench. Last year his other option was JLee, who played admirably at times...and at others not so much. CLM has more options this year AND someone who is supposed to be more competent in QB development. That makes me think CLM might be a little quicker to pull the trigger on playing Mett than he was on playing JLee last year.

I know, I'm not convinced about anything. I'll wait for the season to play out before I make any judgements about JJ...and Mett...and what CLM will do in terms of PT.

Thanks, OP, for the rundown of CLM's remarks...I love the two quotes about Freak and PP7.
