Glad JJ is being restored THIS week.

I would hate for this to occur next week before Florida or in the week right before Bama.

Lee is not likely to struggle against UK, in fact he is likely to light it up. This will allow him an easier process to get accustomed to being the #1 starter with JJ on the sidelines looking for his chance to play again. If we get up on UK as we should, and if Miles thinks JJ is actually ready for a game (which is questionable with 2 days of recent practice under his belts), then JJ can have a chance without a lot of pressure. If JJ is not ready, then Mett can get some SEC experience late in the game, and that might even be better in the big picture so that we have 3 QB's with SEC experience under their belt for the SEC run.

I like it.

We should know what Les' true plan is after this week. I've seen all the "coach speak" quotes about the situation but Les will show his cards this week. If he truly believes that JJ is a legit option, then he will want to get him as much action as possible vs UK in order to prepare him for UF. I am not talking about Les wanting JJ to be the starting QB but about JJ being a bigger part of the game plan than just being the backup QB.

Giving JJ unnecessary playing time or going 2 platoon does not make any sense at this point.

We're a well oiled machine; we've been good up and down the field and good in the redzone. We don't need a wildcat QB or a redzone QB.

My fear is that last year when Lee outperformed JJ in the beginning of the year, JJ would always get the start again next week and get more plays. It appeared Miles rathered JJ in the game. I hope he changed his tune.
