Jesus. Hard to imagine Perrilloux was being recruited a whole decade ago.

I wouldn't count us out every game. I watched the whole 2008 season on rnolan's youtube page earlier this morning. Lee threw 3 ints against UGA which made it nearly impossible to beat that offense (defense staying on the field much too long). He also threw 4 ints against Bama, the last being the last play of the game in overtime.
One pick six against Bama (we had to go into overtime because of this. Two pick sixes against UGA (we lost this game by two TDs). We were getting our arse beat in against Ole Miss best team in a while 21-3 before Lee got knocked out. The game was a 10-10 play from the rest of the way out so obviously the defense came around the second half. Defense did kill us against Arky, but it was only a one point win and JJ was 9/21 143 2 TDs with 50 yards rushing. We were outmatched against Florida plain and simple.
Taking all the losses into account with Perriloux (a would be junior), we would have beaten Bama easily, squeaked by UGA (3-7pt win), beaten Arky by a close margin, and at least challenged Ole Miss. I'd give us a 9-3 record at worst, 10-2 at best had we had Perriloux.
I also watched the 2009 season today, and Perriloux would have still had a horrible offensive line and run game in 2009. Thing is, our losses were so close and controversial in 2009, he could have probably finished with an 11-1 or undefeated regular season.
IMO, Perriloux set this program back 4 years.
