re: Have any other perennial top 10 programs had as much bad "luck" with QBs ?

I would take pretty much any USC QB over what we've had.

USC - I don't think Kessler is elite, Leinart maybe

Who said anything about elite quarterbacks?

USC has been one of the most consistent programs nationally when it comes to quarterback production. Since Leinart left, USC has only had one mediocre season in terms of passing numbers and that came with a freshman who still posted better numbers than nearly every LSU quarterback since Flynn.

'15 Kessler 3128 Yds 68.4 CMP% 27 TD 6 INT
'14 Kessler 3826 Yds 69.7 CMP% 39 TD 5 INT
'13 Kessler 2968 Yds 65.4 CMP% 20 TD 7 INT
'12 Barkley 3273 Yds 63.6 CMP% 36 TD 15 INT
'11 Barkley 3528 Yds 69.1 CMP% 39 TD 7 INT
'10 Barkley 2791 Yds 62.6 CMP% 26 TD 12 INT
'09 Barkley 2735 Yds 59.9 CMP% 15 TD 14 INT
'08 Sanchez 3207 Yds 65.8 CMP% 34 TD 10 INT
'07 Booty 2361 Yds 63.2 CMP% 23 TD 10 INT
'06 Booty 3347 Yds 61.7 CMP% 29 TD 9 INT

Jeff Sanchez was a very good college QB. Same for John David Booty.

You don't know shite if you think they've had some big QB slump
