As long as Jennings isnt number 9.... Him. His film makes me think hes vaguely underrated by recruiting sites. Hes well spoken too so i see him being somewhat of a leader.

I think he just gives us that extra threat of being to tuck it and run successfully. Lord knows we need it.

No, that's not racist bc he added " so I see him being somewhat of a leader" on the end

If I was a betting man, which I am completely, I'd bet Jennings is ahead of Rettig on the depth chart from Day 1. He is the full package. Doesn't have a cannon, but a good arm and great accuracy. He seems to have awesome pocket presence and can extend plays with his feet. He isn't a run-first guy nor does he have the Tyrod Taylor/Manziel speed, but he is plenty athletic and quick to avoid pressure in the pocket.

I am sincerely pumped to have this kid on our team.

Hayden rettig is a stronger quaterback. He has the ability to pass the deep passes. Now if we can just get some tall receivers, it will be a great passing game indeed!

I am fully expecting a JJ/Lee fiasco if one of these guys does not jump out as the clear cut starter. But we have a few years before we have to worry about that.

Rettig >>>> JLee

Jennings >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> JJ

Jennings has better feet, more athleticism, and is actually a QB. He has great accuracy and vision downfield and a throwing motion that doesn't take 12 seocnds.

While I agree, if one is not clearly beeter than the other I feel Miles will go to two QB system and use Jennings as the runner and Rettig in what ever role Lee had. I don't want it to happen. Hopefully who ever starts sets the world on fire and we do not have to have this converstaion later.

He did this because JJ was a terrible passer. Jennings is a very good passer and definitely has more accuracy and touch than Rettig at this point.

I truly think Jennings will be a 3 year starter here after Mett and Rettig will eventually transfer.

I'm talking about a couple years from now when Mettenberger and Rivers have been drafted to the NFL. Most tiger fans will hate this question, but the sad reality is that there is only one starting job. I've heard great things from both quarterbacks so I don't know what to expect. Rettig or Jennings? Or will Les pull out his infamous two-QB system again?


Only a tiger fan can start a qb controversy three years down the road with two players that haven't signed yet.

With Mettenberger, Rivers, Bolden, Jennings, & Rettig. I see Miles going back to the dual QB status that he loves so much.
