Spending the money we did on a 3rd string QB is just not something we can afford to do. I didn't like the signing at the time, and I still dont.

He won't be on the team next year. Book it.
Lebby went 2-10 last year and he needed to make sure that he didn?t have another season that bad. He brought him in because he knew that KT was too raw to be an SEC starting QB which would have pretty much guaranteed we would go winless in the SEC. With Shapen being injury prone, we needed a QB that could at least keep us competitive if Shapen went down. Another 2-10 year would have been a disaster for Lebby and even though he is getting a longer leash than most because of the situation he inherited, he needed to spend to be safe. At least winning some games this year he isn?t on the hot seat going into next year which will help with recruiting in the portal for the future.
