1st year he redshirted, and that counts as he had a whole year to learn the system.
also threw a pick 6 in that game
NO NO NO NO having any kind of comeback in Troy makes it th most pathetic comeback in LSU history
He literally lost us that game single handedly
4 picks: 1 for a TD, 1 put them on the 15, 1 was in overtime.
Third year he did nothing of note.
2010 was his fourth year.
I don't know how you gave him credit for going down by 30 points to Troy state, and giving Alabama the win in 2008.

he wasnt ready. people think jennings is the starter for the next 2 years. But Harris has played and started sooner in his career than any recent LSU qb.

Someone completely forgot about Malveto, and that Miles substituted JJ in. LSU trailed by 11 when JJ came in
ETA: but like I said, Lee receives no credit for Miles idiot coaching decisions that undermined the kids confidence

um, Jamarcus played behind one of the worst QBs in LSU history, Marcus Randall. Shepard, while he shouldn't even be mentioned as he wasn't a QB, "played behind" another one of the worst QBs in LSU history, Jordan Jefferson.

The way you talk about Lee makes me think that you believe he was a mentally fragile guy.
If true, a player needs thicker skin than that in major college ball.

i think it was throwing non stop frickin picks that did that. He sucked a freshmen.
and don't blame this all on the defense. the offense didn't do shite until the 4th quarter.
They sucks
It was troy state. I still refuse to just pretend this is a great comeback.

Since we've seen so much of him.
uh yea, an entire season. Also add a prior bowl game where he was the known starter for a month after Mett's injury.
AJ has been in Cam's system for two years now and has plenty of game action. Time to dump the "inexperience" excuse.

It's hilarious that you got upvoted, and even more hilarious that you don't really understand what you said HELPS Jennings case!
Question, which year of college did Lee start? Which year did he improve?

BINGO!!! We FINALLY have a winner. Only took Page 3. that was the point of the post. However, I agree it won't just be given to him as a Soph. He still needs to EARN it in Spring/Fall. But the fact that CLM/CC actually made the move in the first SEC road game of the year convinces me they have faith in him.

Yes. I'd take Jarrett Lee any of his seasons in this offense over Jennings. No fricking doubt about it.
Would have to agree. Lee won several games as a RSFreshman with his arm that I just can't imagine the AJ we've seen thus far doing. That's not to say he can't come on like gangbusters this season and next.

Look at their stats again. Look at who they were throwing to again and tell me you'd take 2008 OR 2009 Lee over 2014 Jennings.
I can not understand the selective memory of our fanbase.

Lee had a lot more responsibility with the complete shitshow that our defense was. That team had to air and out and score points.
Lee
143/269 (53.2%) 1,873 yards 14 TDs, 16 Ints.
Rating - 116.9
-Averaged 170 ypg and broke 200 four times.
Jennings
111/227 (48.9%) 1,611 yards. 11 TDs, 7 Ints
Rating - 118.3
- Averaged 124 ypg and broke 200 once.

It really isn't much of a gap. Lee threw a much more accurate ball, spread it around, but was turnover prone.
Jennings holds the ball a long time, takes some sacks, but protects the ball. They aren't similar players
Lee would have had a much easier job with the 2014 team

Harris played early because we only had 2 scholarship QBs and Jennings had no experience. Jarrett Lee was horrible in 2008 and JJ didn't start until Lee got hurt.
Lee's QB rating 116.92
Jennings QB rating 118.33
For reference, Hatch's QB rating was 118.43 and he didn't get passed up until he was knocked out of a game.

Lee was playing in the Auburn game before Hatch was injured. Lee threw a pick 6, got pulled, and hatch went back in

Jarrett Lee was a good passer. He was put in spread passing offense with a shitty defense and forced to throw a ton. Jarrett Lee in a prostyle balanced O with a good defense was very efficient. But OMG, pick sixes! But you roll with with Jennings after that putrid sophomore season with a terrific running game and solid defense.
You really are a moron

2009, This was Lee's 3rd year in the system, yet no progress.
Bama 4/10 44% 44 yards 1 int
LA Tech 7/22 31.8% 105 yards 1 TD
This was with seniors LaFell and Dickson and junior Toliver who all played at least 2 years prior.

I haven't read this thread--I can't stomach too much more of these debates. But to the OP, I've said all season that Harris played more than any true freshman I can remember sans injury. And that's going back probably 30 years. Granted, most true freshman come in with a much more established and productive QB than Jennings, but it's just never been the culture here to play true freshman QBs, much less start them. Under this regime or any other I can think of.

What does that have to do with anything? You guys aren't even making a point now

He was an interception machine as a freshman. He broke records in that regard.
