Please tell me, in which games did Mitch Mustain actually do something which made you think "he definitely won that one for us."
FACT: In five of his eight starts, he passed for fewer than 100 yards.
Jarrett frickin' Lee would have been 8-0 in those games at Arkansas. Book it.
Vanderbilt, definitely. We don't win that game without him. He also played very well in the Auburn game. Didn't necessarily "win it" for us, but performed well. He threw a game-winning TD in the Alabama game, despite his struggles.
Bottom line, he was true frosh QB. He had flashes, but he struggled. Just like any other true frosh QB. Hell, look at Stafford's numbers....his frosh numbers sucked, and he was the #1 overall pick.
The end result is that Mustain could have been a very good QB. He's obviously not going to win the job at USC, but hell, the back-ups at USC are better than probably 75% of starters out there.
Bottom line -- not one person in this thread has pointed to an instance where Mustain or his mom showed their arse. It's interesting to me that he was such a whiny bitch, but no one can provide one shred of evidence to back that assertion up.

I never so much said he was a whiny bitch. I do think that if he and his mother really did think he deserved all of that playing time as a true freshman then perhaps they were full of themselves.
I just think the whole "zomg he wuz 8-0 as a StArTeR" argument isn't quite valid when considering the fact that he had very little of an impact in an overwhelming majority of the games he started.
