re: How does an "elite" program get itself into a 4 year JJ/JL mess?

Why did we just ride this lame fricking rollercoaster for 4 years?

Both JJ and JL were obviously not SEC caliber QB's (each had their moments, but the body of work of both players is subpar to put it mildly).

This 4 year saga was sort of a microcosm of Monday night's game, we didnt do or try anything to change it, we just rode it out hoping it would somehow correct itself.

I truly believe Lee would've developed into a solid game manager similar to Mauck if not a little better if we would've stayed with him over JJ back in 08.

I know Lee had too many picks (to put it mildly), but we also moved the ball and scored pretty damn well. (see UGA 08 and others)

The defense was so bad, this team gave up. If Miles would've had his head out his arse and hired a good DC, then the pressure would've been off the offense and I have no doubt Lee would've developed much better. The kid had an arm and threw a great deep ball. He was balling in the first 8 games of this year.
