Time to Step Back and Look at Ourselves! Some of these turned into really heated discussions and I thought they were pretty humorous to read throuth. Two years makes all the difference in the world: http://forums.tigerfan.com/tigers-den/78356-i-like-lee.html http://forums.tigerfan.com/tigers-den/78370-late-play-jefferson.html http://forums.tigerfan.com/tigers-den/79885-jarrett-lee-cfb-qb-history.html http://forums.tigerfan.com/tigers-den/77054-quarterback-change.html And just for lagniappe (spot-on prediction): http://forums.tigerfan.com/tigers-den/78366-patrick-peterson-going-awesome.html
No, he "deserved" criticism. He was a sub-par QB. And, it seemed like the 2008 season broke his spirit. Last year, he was given a shot and didn't show any signs of improvement. Jefferson, on the other hand looks exactly like the true freshman who came in during the Ole Miss game after Lee got hurt. He had one good half against GT, and our expectations for him went sky high.
Damm, Punk and I got in some arguments about Lee back then. LOL. It's amazing what Cane's shaushe can do for a few people. :rofl: Also, I was an ass hole back then. Some of my posts make me feel shame. I'm glad these threads were brought back though. I was dead on right about Lee even way back then. It just took a couple years before I was vindicated. lol
I can honestly say that I've always liked the kid. I'm glad to see him getting a chance to show a little of what he has. I can say this...if he doesn't get to be THE GUY by the time he leaves us, some NFL team is going to get an absolute steal.
yeah but i said stuff like, live and die with jefferson, and if i never see lee again it will be too soon. crow taste like crap.
Yep. That one guy out here... was like Lee is going to be the best QB LSU has ever had, 4 weeks later he was throwing him under the bus, then he said Jefferson was going to be a great QB, now he is throwing him under the bus. Very funny stuff. Then when you point out what they said they call you crazy even after you show them the quotes. Whatever happened to the detailed SEARCH option?
lefire just think what lee would become if miles marched him out in front of the press and said" Jarrett lee is our starting qb and I have all the faith in the world in his ability. He has shown the heart of a tiger and I am proud of him". What would that do for this kid? Instead he is saying Jordon Jefferson is our starter and we will throw you in the game when we are behind and if you don't win then everyone can say you failed. We can also let you march the ball down the field and then give the ball to Jordan Jefferson to score the td that you worked your azz off for and you can watch everyone pat jj on the back for making a td that was stolen from you and handed on a silver platter to the person that's sitting in your seat while you are put in the corner
