From Prep to Pro!, EST 2001


  Draft Scout by Conference









  When Lane Kiffin first appeared at SEC Media Days as Tennessee's coach in 2009, he brought his preseason All-SEC ballot to prove he voted for Florida quarterback Tim Tebow. One of the top storylines that year was ferreting out which coach didn't vote for Tebow, causing him to miss unanimous selection on the coaches' preseason all-conference team by one vote. Then-South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier revealed he was the culprit. Spurrier said the folks he tasked with completing his ballot made a mistake by voting for Ole Miss quarterback Jevan Snead. Twelve years later, Kiffin returned to media days on Tuesday as Ole Miss' second-year coach. And this time, there's no need for anyone to apologize for casting a preseason All-SEC vote for an Ole Miss quarterback.

I reminded Kiffin on Tuesday of how he brought his ballot with him to media days in 2009 and asked whom he plans to vote for as preseason All-SEC quarterback this year. "I would say our own quarterback in Matt," Kiffin said. "Statistically, he played as well as anybody in the country." Corral is one of three quarterbacks who will appear here this week. That speaks to some coaches' reluctance to allow quarterbacks to take their rightful place in the spotlight, but also to the league's lack of proven stars at the position. - The Clarion Ledger
