Ranking the Most Disappointing Quarterbacks of the SEC Since 2010

The best quarterbacks at any position are easy to name typically, let alone quarterback in one of the most popular and best conferences in college football. What is not easy to think of often times are the worst quarterbacks. In this article, I share my thoughts on the worst starting quarterbacks of the SEC since 2010.

2. JT Daniels (2020-2021, Georgia)

This was quite the journey. Daniels ended up playing for four schools in six years, with the Georgia Bulldogs being his second stop in 2020 after spending his first two seasons at USC.

The quarterback prodigy graduated early from high school in 2018 to sign with the Trojans and was ranked as the third best quarterback in the country in that class according to On3. This is especially impressive given his high school reclassification.

At USC, Daniels would tear his ACL in the season opener in 2019 after winning the starting job. Kedon Slovis would emerge and Daniels would never reclaim his starting spot, prompting him to transfer to Athens to play for Kirby Smart in the Bulldogs.

Daniels was overtaken by Stetson Bennett despite some strong performances in 2021 and would not get his starting job back, which caused him to exit stage left again after two seasons in Athens.

Daniels would transfer to West Virginia for the 2022 season and then to Rice for the 2023 season before retiring from football due to concussions.
