re: This is why people are skeptical that Miles will change

Mett was never going to start this year being his first year in the SEC and not really grasping the playbook yet. Miles had already indicated during the year that Mett needed to mature more. Most coaches won't just throw an inexperience QB to the wolves just because. He went with experience just like most coaches would. Just like Saban did when he opted to play Randall over Flynn and Russell. It wasn't because they were worse with their mechanics or had less skill. It was because they had less experience which is something you can't manufacture. Mett was given the time to learn the playbook and ease into the starting position. Their shot at winning a BCSNC is just as good in 2012-2013 year as it was last year. If QB play takes a step forward, which I expect it will, the chances of winning it all will be even better. This was a team of largely sophomores and juniors on the field.
