Heres what i just thought about I am Jarrett Lee, a freshman, i am redshirting my freshman season where matt flynn is leading our team to a national championship... all my friends are not seeing playing time and im not getting a ton of snaps. Ryan Perrilloux is gonna be the man for probably two years and he is great. I am probably not gonna see the field for a while. Plus andrew hatch is also in front of me. I am gonna be a RS freshman next year and im probably never gonna see the field not to say this is an excuse but it wouldnt be uncommon for JL to think this nor would i expect someone who doesnt think theyre gonna get the field to give 100% not saying that he didnt but for me i dont think you can be the best QB you can be unless your whole team knows youre gonna be the starter for plenty of time. I think this kid is good and hes gonna come around i hope
I am pretty sure he prepared from a physical standpoint and tried to stay as sharp as possible. But there is no denying it's a totally different mindset once you know you're the man. That's why it was critical to get rid of RP as soon as we knew he wasn't able to be salvaged.
