Jamarcus Russell, Matt Flynn, RP, Mett, even Jarrett Lee looked alright his senior year. The only shitty QB's he's had have been Jefferson and Jennings since he got here, can we tone down the "Miles can't have a good QB" rhetoric? It's bullshite and fueling it will only lead to unnecessary problems in LSU football and Miles' public perception

Miles has been here for 10 years and for 5 of those we've had pathetic QB play. And don't throw Lee in with the good QB's just because he didn't have to throw his senior year.

Matt Flynn,


JJ had 2 seasons where is qb rating was higher than Flynn's in 2007. So if you're saying JJ sucked then so did Flynn.

LSU is a borderline top 10 all time program,right?
These are JJ'S career rankings at lsu with just over 2 years worth of starts.
1.5th in career wins
2.5th in career td passes
3.6th in career passing yards
4.6th in career compl %
5. 1st in career qb rushing yards
6.holds the single season qb rushing record

You can't have these rankings at a top 10 all time program and suck. While he wasn't great and at times looked horrid, both his 2009 and 2011 qb rating is higher than Flynn's 2007 qb rating. By no means was he horrible all the time.

Jamarcus Russell and Matt Flynn were nick sabans recruits. They were already coached up enough before miles got a hold of them. So them 2 doesn't count

To be fair, Mett fell into his lap. Also, if you're using Lee as point of argument for Miles' ability to recruit QB's, you need to re-evaluate the argument.

Miles recruits highly touted QB's coming out of highschool. Problem is, they are 100% the opposite of what we need in our system.

We've had major success with proto-typical pocket passers. We've struggled mightily with ATH types Miles insists on bringing in.

Thank God we have a solid defensive team, otherwise we'd be bottom tier in the SEC year in and year out.
