How long has it been since each team had a black quarterback start a minimum of five games in a season?
Here's what I put together so far, and I'm certain some of it is incorrect. Can you help fill in the blanks?
Side questions:
When was the last time the USC Trojans had a black starting quarterback?
Which teams from a major conference have gone the longest without a black starting QB?
Alabama - 2001 (Andrew Zow)
Arkansas - 2006 (Robert Johnson)
Auburn - 2012 (Kiehl Frazier)
Florida - 2006 (Chris Leak)
Georgia - 2005 (D.J. Shockley)
Kentucky - 2012 (Jalen Whitlow)
LSU - 2011 (Jordan Jefferson)
Mississippi State - 2011 (Chris Relf)
Missouri - 2013 (James Franklin)
Ole Miss - 2011 (Randall Mackey)
South Carolina - 2006 (Syvelle Newton)
Tennessee - 1999 (Tee Martin)
Texas A&M - 2008 (TbirdSpur2010) or 2010 (Jarrod Johnson)
Vanderbilt - 2011 (Larry Smith)

Mizzou had Brad Smith a few years ago.
UGA had Quincey Carter way back when.

I'll have to look it up in a bit but Jalen Whitlow may have started 5 games last season. He at the very least played in most. Morgan Newton may have also gotten 5 starts early in his career (post-2007).
Andre Woodson was our starting QB in 2007 for sure. And Whitlow is in the hunt with Max Smith to be named starter this season too.

I'll go with this until I hear back.

Um, Mizzou would be their current QB James Franklin.
USC....maybe Rodney Peete?

Just looked, Jalen Whitlow started 7 games last season.

Morgan Newton was 5-2 as the Kentucky starter in 2009 after Hartline was injured.
Eta: NM just saw Whitlow played 5+ games last year.

Did Larry Smith not start 5 games in a season at Vandy recently?

If you ever want to talk skewed stats, that would be one. Randall Cobb did more out of the Wildcat to win those games then Morgan Newton under center.

Sorry. Didn't mean to offend. But it is Mizzou. You can't expect the rest of the SEC to know who your starting QB is.
