When the Tigers take the field Aug. 30 against Appalachian State, redshirt freshman quarterback Jarrett Lee should start under center.
While he lacks the years of playing experience of his main opponent for the position, sophomore Andrew Hatch, Lee is clearly the best option for the Tigers if they want to continue the success of the 2007 season.

If you call Harvard's athletic department or The Harvard Crimson, the campus newspaper, they know Andrew Hatch. But they might have trouble finding pictures or stories about the man who seems to be the Tigers' next starting quarterback.
Neither Harvard's athletic Web site nor the campus newspaper covered junior varsity football when Hatch played on the Crimson's junior varsity team in 2005.

If you are looking for proof that hard work, talent and a little patience will get you somewhere, look no further than Southern Miss middle linebacker Gerald McRath.
In his fifth summer in Hattiesburg, McRath, the reigning Conference USA Defensive Player of the Year says feels the Eagles are more focused than ever and ready to play.
The promising McRath, from McEachern High School in Powder Springs, Ga., was redshirted as a freshman in 2004 after a knee injury in summer practice. He returned an interception in his debut at the 2006 opener at Alabama, but after another knee injury against McNeese State the following week, he would had to sit out yet another season.
Luckily, McRath was granted a medical redshirt by the NCAA, allowing him to retain his freshman status leading into 2006.
When he finally got on the field, McRath proved he was well worth the wait by leading the Golden Eagles in tackles with 104, 11 for a loss, and was named to the Freshman All-Conference Team as well as a Freshman All-American by The Sporting News.
McRath provided an encore last season with 139 tackles (10.7 tackles per game) and four sacks as he earned C-USA Defensive Player of the Year honors.
In a losing effort against Central Florida, he had a career-high 21 tackles battling future NFL first round draft pick Kevin Smith.
With the injury troubles seemingly behind him and a degree in sports management, the preseason All-American is focusing on football this semester. He said he is taking yoga and fitness walking classes this semester, and kicking back.
