Dual-threat tends to lead people into believing they are run first QBs.
But the definition of dual threat isn't run-first, it's someone who can make plays with the the pass and the run. Jennings fits that mold. He's not Mike Vick, but he can certainly hurt some teams scrambling or with some read option (which will be run with him if he sees the field at LSU).

I would say most "dual-threat" QBs typically posses average to below average arm talent. Whether that's accuracy, strength, etc...usually dual-threat means good to great runner and bad to decent passer. EXTREMELY rarely do we see someone with good to great running skills AND good to great arm talent. Jennings is a pass first QB which is why I would classify him as a pro-style QB. He just has very good mobility and at the high school level that can translate into scrambles for some gains.
