re: How is Jimbo any different than Miles?

He seems to have a good track record of developing QBs though Russel Mauck Flynn Winston Ponder Obviously not all of these guys had success in the NFL but they all got drafted and all made a 53 man roster their rookie years. That's more than what you can say for most programs...

It's funny how we always equate how someone does in the NFL on whether they were a good QB in college. It's just lke the Heisman Trophy...it is for the best player in COLLEGE FOOTBALL NOT A PREDICTOR OF GREATNESS IN THE NFL!! the winner was for that period of time the greatest player for that year in college. Should Tom Brady have won the Heisman? Tony Romo? Russell Wilson? No, they were OK, immature, 18-22 year-old kids who played well for their schools. I guess after all of this what I am trying to say is college football, while somewhat of a predictor of NFL success, is not the entire catch-all that some folks think it is. Coaches at the college level, COACH COLLEGE KIDS, NOT NFL PLAYERS! Even with all of the success that the "Sabanator" has had in T-town, I don't see the NFL stocked with bama players. He coached/recruited his players at LSU/Bama to win at....wait for it....LSU and Bama!! Not the Cowboys, Giants, Raiders, Patriots, etc.
