I think Mett will start by the middle of the year.
Do you have some reason for 'thinking' this? What has Mett done that Lee has not? What were their stats in the NWSU game? Who had the better ones? Which QB led the team to more points?
I'm not saying Mett isn't a good talent. It's just ludicrous to think that because he played one half of one game against an inferior sub-SEC opponent that you can say he needs to start over a guy in his 5th year who has shown steady improvement and has decent numbers this season.

Well stats certainly aren't the only consideration, or Lee would've been benched after the Oregon game. Both looked good against NWST, but Mett looked better.
He looks far more comfortable in the pocket, has better footwork, a stronger arm, and better mechanics. The only reason he's not starting now is b/c he's had the playbook for less than a year as opposed to a veteran in Lee.
This isn't a knock on Lee, but anyone who watched both of them can't possibly say Lee looks like a better qb. He simply knows the offense better, which Miles hinted at being the reason he was starting. Once Mett gets a bit more comfortable with the offense, I think we'll see him starting, and I see that happening within the next month or so.
