What??? Why not blame Miles for recruiting Rettig, who ended up being pretty crappy, then he quit? Who do we blame. And he doesn't get blamed for having a backup plan of only Jennings and Harris? Who would you blame?

I blame the kid for not keeping his word. Miles got Lee to campus and into spring practice as a 5 star QB. Rettig flipped days before signing day. Its hard to scramble and pick up a guy in a matter of days. These 2 along with Harris were arguably the 3 guys we were stacking up to start for the next 6-7 years. Blame Miles for losing them but credit him for winning with younger or lessor talent. It's not like we lost 10 games each year. We can't have it both ways.

I think you need to google who Hayden Rettig is. He was at LSU and transferred.

You're embarrassing yourself.

Name one QB that LSU has developed since 2007. 2007 was Flynn who had 4 years under Jimbo then started his RS SR year under Crowton.

Name me that QB in the last 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008 seasons. We've had 3 SR QBs in that timeframe. Go ahead and say Mett so I can

at you more.

Am I taking crazy pills? Rettig showed up. I watched him in the Spring game. He sucked. Then, he quit and transferred.

I give him credit for recruiting a helluva defense, and some unbelievable playmakers, like TM7. But your OP premise is that it takes time to develop qb's, not debating the win/loss record. On that note, I ask you again, have you seen 2 years worth of improvement with BH? 4 years of improvement with Lee? Jefferson?
